I will not stop saying the phrase

I have homosexual friends and I have professional relationships with homosexuals but I just can't stop saying it.

I feel like I'm becoming an old man and need to dig in my heels to preserve some of my youth.

I'll only stop when it becomes as aweful as my grandfather saying he'd been "jew'd out of money"

this thread is gay.

in before that's gay.

fags.

we have a few jew related idioms too. like [VP]+en juif. For instance,

Tu vas pas te goinfrer ce gateau en juif j'espère ?

"you aren't going to eat this cake like a jew, do you ?"

(i.e. gimme a part of this cake !).

jews

Concerning gays, well.

We don't really use affirmative propositions with "gay" eg "that's gay".

But we do use negative propositions a lot : "that's not a gay thing" (= it's something heavy, or powerful or complex etc... anything a gay man wouldn't be able to handle).

it takes one to know one. :P

Oh and Babar:

"you aren't going to eat this cake like a jew, are you ?"

Please excuse my prescriptivism, my father was British and he was beaten at school, as a result he took it out on me by becoming a teacher.

yeah but you're still a queer, faggot.

Perhaps you've watched too much South Park and lost too much brain cells in the process.

you're just in a bad mood, faggot.

Speaking of jews, I'm going to see finkelstein speak on saturday.

I really hope some "pwnage" goes down like this (stupid waterloo students, step with a real argument):

i think he equates Imperialist Zionists with Nazis and that's what gets the sand all up in her vagina.

fag that!

this thread is stupid but i want to share a stupid story tangentially related so i will

i was at a thrift store with my friend and we found this atari 2600 and he wanted it but it was marked at like 10 bucks and we only had like 5 bucks between the two of us in cash and they didn't take plastic because it was some tiny ass thrift store that was run by this lutheran church and so we told the lady and tried to haggle the price down and she just kind of looks at him funny and says, completely straight faced and with a hint of anger,

"what are you, some kind of a jew?"

we both just burst out laughing and she got really angry but took the five dollars to get us out and he ended up with a working atari 2600 for five dollars.

anyways yeah. as for using "that's gay," i dunno. a lot of gay folks will get reallllly angry at you and a lot of straight allies will probably think less of you as a person as a result but i mean it's your prerogative. maybe start using it for positive things! then you don't have to give up a phrase you like AND you're doing good. how about positive manly things, like "OH YEAH! TOUCHDOWN! THAT IS SO AWESOMELY GAY!" because like i mean what's more masculine than two guys having sex? i don't remember what comedian said that but it was a comedian and i didn't make it up but i mean it's apt, right?

that's so gay.

But we wouldn't use the word "gay"...we'd use the pejorative ones: "Dis donc, c'est pas d'la musique de tapette!"

I think worrying so much about words is kinda gay

it is gay though, Franklin. Don't you worry yourself.

honestly, I refer to you in my head as "depressing", not "disparaissant" or whatever your name is. I don't like any of your posts at all and I think that you are gay. gay as in lame.

I don't say "that's gay" mainly because most of the people I know who say it are either twelve year-old boys or frat morans.

In moments of outrage, I do sometimes let a "that's retarded" slip, which I feel bad about afterward.

I think, though, it's all about your audience -- like comedy. Some things can only be funny, or have whatever intended effect, when directed towards the right people. So if you hang out with people who have the IQ and world outlook of a twelve year-old boy or frat moran, by all means "gay" yourself silly!

Nothing wrong with saying something is very happy!

The Flintstones always said they had a good time, but then they also said they had a gay time, so it is never clear what kind of time they had.
