El: I’m hungry, Mel.
Mel: How can you be hungry? You just ate a giant cupcake.
El: Well, you know how we're doing a benefit for America's Second Harvest this Sunday?
Mel: Yes.
El: I just went to the organization's website and read about the "Faces of Hunger in My Community" and it made me absolutely STARVING.
Mel: You probably shouldn't say that.
El: Why not?
Mel: It's politically incorrect.
El: Why?
Mel: Referring to yourself as a Starving Person in this particular context is offensive.
El: But I truly feel starving.
Mel: Yes, but you can eat something whenever you want to. The people we're benefiting cannot.
El: I'm so glad you're my friend so that I know these things. What else is politically incorrect?
Mel: I'll make you a list.
El: Will you put it in alphabetical order?
Mel: Obviously.
