Personally I find "you are/he/she/it/x,y,z is gay" statements/jokes really |
| 16 |
lame. The topic matter doesn't seem to be relevant to anything (beyond whom |
| 17 |
you might want to sleep with/marry, obviously) - does being gay make you a |
| 18 |
better/worse airline pilot? Does it inhibit your ability to be a software |
| 19 |
engineer? Are you more likely to step out on to the road in front of an |
| 20 |
oncoming vehicle? Does it mean you spend 60 mins a day more than |
| 21 |
heterosexuals watching television? Are Mac users (as one OSNews nit posted |
| 22 |
recently) gay? Who gives a word-replaced-by-four-asterisks? |
