Following is the winning entry from an annual contest calling for the

most appropriate definition of a contemporary term.

This year's term: Political Correctness.

"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical

minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media,

which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick

up a turd by the clean end."

That reminds me of something I once did in an exam at college. It was a marketing examination, and the question was, 'Define Marketing', my answer, for which I got into trouble was:

Marketing is the dark art of putting a previously unreleased song on the B side of a single, that way, fans have to buy both the single and the album the single is from, only to find that the previously unreleased track, was previously unreleased because it was crap. That's what marketing is.

In the actual final marketing exam, I passed with a score of 96 percent:rotfl:
