This news story that was recently on CNN is just unbelievable:

All I can say is wow. I guess Western society really is cracking down on achieving the goal of absolute mediocrity. How can one ever improve if their errors are not pointed out. It's not like teachers are standing kids up in front of the whole class and humiliating them for their mistakes, they're just pointing them out in red ink. Is anyone else getting fed up with how nice and politically correct our society is being forced to become? I mean this is IMHO insane. I can't believe that research money was spent on determining that red ink is too "stressful" a color for people...

Ruled by a decadent empire, it slipped inch by inch into barbarism and darkness, until one last cataclysm blotted it out forever. Yet, in it\'s sunset, it was a splendid thing, and glorious were the deeds of the Exalted.\"<br /><br />[url]\"http://www.sloganizer.net/en/\" target=\"_blank\"> [img]\"http://www.sloganizer.net/en/style7,Severed-spc-Fist.png\" alt=\" - \" /></a>
