Some people (who me?) have too much time on their hands.

Oh FFS.  And The Frog Prince should be banned for encouraging bestiality...  Beauty and the Beast for the same reason...

Well if we can make a law about pronouns (I don't even know WTF that means - do I have a pronoun? Does it hurt? Where can I find it? Should I look in the shower? Ask my wife? Will it wipe off with toilet paper?  ???) then surely we can rightfully change the meaning of "snowflake".  Or we can just call her what she is.  A twit.
