I feel offended by the genres "Christian Gansta Rap" and "Christian Rock". 
I'm not Christian. Remove it! I want Rastafarian Rock!

The genre "Death Metal" is offending. Don't talk about death in a program! 
Remove it!

Booty bass? Damn, we got a sexist genre right there! Remove it! Wah wah 
wah!

Krautrock? No comment. But where's your comment about this one?

OK, I hope you understood that your personal quest for political 
correctness is ridiculous. Leave those classic 90ies ID3 genres alone. 
Simply don't use them. People like you get us regulated to death!

PS: Porngroove. Hey, I got a few tracks tagged with this! :-)
