I think midget's just prefer to be called people, or short people.
I called the National Center of Political Correctness but hung up after their music on hold said happy holidays. I immediately called the Office of Oxymoron's, but they laughed and just said, "Those midgets are a hoot..."
I'll get back to you.Phil

Dreamerz
You should become a children's book author and scare all the little kiddies witless (you have definite writing talent and imagination along the lines of Roald Dahl......ever looked for the gremlins under your bed after reading one of his stories??)

I heard that the diminutive people are thrown by big folks as a sport somewhere...
Also there's the sex biz nowadays--so I hear.

Ummmm, did you just say that "little people" are tossed by the "Big People" somewhere in the world as a sport????Where is this, and how can I get a tape of it????
Oh, and I took care of my problem with the Elves... I just set mousetraps in both of the fireplaces, so if they think they're coming in here, I'm going to catch one of them...
Besides, my dogs have been told now to be on the lookout tonight.

It'd good you did that. Word on the street is those dwarfs have a huge methamphetamine problem.
Long hours, fame, the travelling, you know.

Man, that beats cockfights anyday(I'm not going there)let me know when the next game is. I wonder if you can throw a perfect spiral with one of them small people.
That sex thing brings odd images to mind.

warning: after much elf lobbying, Santa was forced to amend his "naughy" offense list to include joking about little persons. I know you boys don't want to find lumps of coal in your stockings tomorrow morning, do you?

I'd take a lump of coal if I could play one round of midget tossing. I'd take that in a heartbeat. Hell, I'd take the lump of coal for just a videotape of Midget Tossing LOLAnd Dreamerz never got back to me on where I could possibly find such a tape... She's the one that mentioned that it was a sport in some parts of the world and brought it up in the first place...
Personally, I hope I live to see the day that Midget Tossing becomes incorporated into the Olympic Games

I've been naughty all year anyways... It's more fun to be naughty then to be nice. Not sure if I could go through an entire year being nice. That would be an accomplishment lolSo I'm more than likely to get put on the Bad Boys list, so all I have to say about that is...
LET THE GAMES BEGIN...
Now I just need to find me a midget to toss... Do they require any special equipment, or do I require their consent? Or can I just pick them up and throw them. What's the record so far?

If you expect to have difficulty getting to sleep, then you'd better wear goggles, in case the little elves of mischief bring their sadistic friend The Sandman - http://fusionanomaly.net/sandman.html .
If this malign psychopath throws a handful of sand in your face, you're in for an excruciatingly painful trip to A & E with thousands of sharp, scratchy grains of sand trapped under your eyelids gouging your cornea every time you try to blink. US citizens are allowed to shoot these intruders in their homes.
Pleasant dreams :)
Jonathan.

lol... now that is awesome!! So, which country is this legal in? I want to play. But I think I'd fix the midgets up in some football gear and not have it be over a cliff. Just see how far you can toss them. Be like the Discus Throw, ya know?

My dear grandmother, of blessed memory....
Well, I'll just say that Phil is correct. Those with endocrine related dwarfism (and other forms of dwarfism) prefer to be called "little people", or better yet, "people".

it seems to me though that if the term midget was exchanged for any other visible minority it wouldn't be being made a joke of so easily.
What if it was
"negro tossing"I know it may sound like I'm being holier than thou or stuck on being politically correct, thats not it though, it just seems cruel to me.

In fact word substitution is the test I use in many circumstances.
