Because then I'd apparently be offended by this joke:

CNN's Anderson Cooper was the first to publicly object to the scene in which Vaughn, 40, quips: "Ladies and gentlemen, electric cars ... are gay."

Oh the horror!

On a serious note though, really? REALLY? How is that offensive????

Far too many people are far too easily offended.

I'm mostly italian in terms of my heritage and was amazed by the constant umbrage taken by Italian American groups at the Sopranos when it was on.

I have no idea if it's offensive. From my perspective, it's high praise for electric cars!

Patters, I was going to post something similar to what you just said but with my "Neo Con Racist Reputation" I would have been laughed right off the thread Mrs PFan would have eaten me alive.

curious thread title. Why would you feel a need to create a thread about it?

Does this forum have a 'low content' thread? It should.

It's more of a commentary on how sometimes groups who have good intentions and noble intent, get way off track and make themselves look foolish (in my opinion).
Plus it's a clever play on words :P
Are you one who feels offended by the joke?

I would LOVE to see more threads with titles "that make you go 'big breath'". We need to keep the edges as far from the "middle" (where PC fans want everyone) as possible. Because once the edges contract, there's no going back. And God help us if we all start being ultra "PC"...
