A guy did this yesterday. I told him we can’t give away bowls at work. His response, “that’s gay!”. My unspoken response, “Sir, salad bowls do not have sexual preferences.”
LOL every time.
In spite of the great Wanda Sykes (my computer just tried to tell me Sykes was a spelling error, it suggested Dykes) and her crusade against 16-year-old boys with cheesy mustaches using the word “gay” in such a way, I’m legitimately unbothered by its being used interchangeably with the words “stupid” and “lame”. In the defense of those that use it in such a way, it’s generally not at all meant to imply that homosexuals are stupid, it’s just something that started way back when we were all young and didn’t really understand the concept of the thing and it has since proven hard to break away from.
I’m not saying anyone is wrong for being offended by it, I just wanted to make known the fact that, concerning this issue, I am an uninterested third party.
