Anthropological Idiocy



Preparing for the next edition of the Newspeak dictionary, the Association of Social Anthropologists has decreed that the term "Stone Age" is now officially "offensive" to backward, primitive savages.

It may also be offensive to people who are not social anthropologists.

    I'm assuming Ogg the Cave Guy was unavailable for comment?

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
