Mind you, in the toy shop they sell blackboards, but tell you that to get a whiteboard you need to go the office supplies store. What kind of message does that send out?

I've been so depressed, it gave me a black (sorry, dark) mood. I hit myself till I had a black (sorry, bruised) eye, and the pain was so bad they sent out the men in white (sorry, bleached) coats to lock me up.

Jeez, what a racist society we live in.
Well put and like you've demonstrated racism is always targetted one way, and never the other.
