On Being Politically Correct....

I'm not always the most PC, but I thought this was funny. I agree with the philosophy behind politically correctness, but I think the whole PC movement has gotten a little out of control. Also, I generally prefer to be grammatically correct rather than politically correct, and sometimes it's difficult to be both. (Though, as you probably know, grammatical correctness and formal writing styles aren't usually things I'm overly concerned with in my blog.)

Someone recently told me that kids no longer sit on the floor "Indian-style". It's now called "pretzel-legs." I was always confused by "Indian-style" because I never understood whether it referred to South Asian or Native American sitting style. In fact, I'm still confused about it! I like "pretzel-legs" much better.
