I'm pretty sure that at Locking we remembered it as:

Black B*stards Rape Only Young Girls But Virgins Give Willingly.

I doubt if it's even taught now.DT_Xtremez_21:

I saw it on the web page last night in it's non PC form, Black Boys Rape Our Young Girls Virgins Go Without.

This morning it's been sanitised, undoubtedly because it may 'Offend'.

Some years ago, I did some stand in lecturing in basic electronics to 1st Yr Apprentices and NVQ students at a local college.

Knowing I was ex-Service, the senior lecturer warned me about not using the non-PC version of Black B*stards Rape...... in the lessons where we looked at resistors.

His version - he was afterall, a brown rice eating, tree hugging, lefty lesbian, single mother rights supporter tawt, just didnt do it for me or the students.

'Black Beetles Running On Your Garden Bring Very Good Weather'

The first time I recited the PC version, a black lad - who later joined up as a BENGO, says - 'Sir, aint that the rhyme that includes Black B*stards?'

Queue a choking sound from the Senior guy who was sat a the back of the class room quality checking my work!

It may be very un-pc..... but it works. I too remember this one from school over 25 years ago.

Got taught it that way in Electronics at College, it was odd as there was both black and asians on the course and no one said a word. It was around 92/3 though.

I find they rarely do complain. It's usually whites who feel outraged on their behalf.

Resistor colour code racist? Surely not!

Now how are we meant to remember the resistor colour code?
