As far as I understand, Ms Wintour of Vogue magazine has banned the word 'Niggling', which she seems to find racist (goodness knows why). The above is simply a cartoon celebrating her lunacy.
Cro, as long as you read more papers than the Daily Mail you shall remain on the straight and narrow, and I shall forgive you.
To add to many an example, I am most disenchanted that, in these times of equal rights, actresses are now actors. What is politically correct when the (hu)MAN rules as woman's job description? Give it time and children won't know what to call the female part of their parents!
I believe it was Newcastle University who said recently that we should no longer refer to 'Mothers and Fathers', but to 'Guardians'. Nothing is sacred.

No kidding!
Apparently so! I now just sit and wait for the next crazy pronouncement.
I ran out of patience with the PC crew long ago - this is just blardy ridiculous! No sniggering now!!
There's crazy and crazy; this is CRAZY!
Could be worse. They could have started with Banking, Thanking, Ranking and .........
Just be grateful you're not called Nigel; all Nigels will soon have to call themselves Kevin.
Diggle is a place near Oldham. It's a suggestive name and ought to be changed to something like Chastity.
Or to Piddle, as in the Dorset river.
Did I miss something?
Likewise...I have no idea what any of these are!
It's as clear as day follows nig--- the hours between sunset and sunrise.
Honestly - you don't know whether to laugh or cry these days!

Call me Mister,

Be careful... darkness and light are filled with connotations.
A combination of both helps!

I think I might be getting Tourettes - I keep wanting to blurt out all these forbidden words!
I think that's half the trouble with their mission; we all want to show how much we disapprove!

You're being enigmatic.
