What deems something as negative are the thin-skinned people that get offended at anything. They are now creating the most soft & thin-skinned generation of people that will not be able to (or afraid to) speak their mind. Geeze! I just saw a news report about how much harm we are doing to our children when we buy them "Elf-on-the-Shelf." This is now controversial? Some wacko shrink is saying that it will bring paranoia to our kids because they could fear they are constantly watched! REALLY!!!!???? On that basis, we should also fear Santa because he knows when we are sleeping, awake, and are being bad or good!!!! ALERT ... Santa is watching you!!!! Doesn't that scare you???? So, Santa is a stalker!!!
So don't be negative. Don't call fat people fat, don't call handicapped people handicapped. Since when has that been "offensive?" What offends me are the people that get offended at things like this!
Instead of saying, "the plane had a small flaw in the design that made it difficult to control" say, "I saw an opportunity to add a feature I happen to like."
There ... that should quell the concerns of those fanatical thin-skinned ultra-conservative extremist paranoid people who are so easily offended.
