No offense or anything but I HATE it when people call something "gay."

Examples:

"That shirt you're wearing is so gay."
"Those math problems for homework were so queer."

Does the shirt really have a sexual orientation? The same thing goes for
the math problems. Didn't think so!

Before you (by that I mean anyone in general, not just you, Tim) start
flaming me, please keep in mind that this is an OPINIONATED statement,
and I am NOT trying to take away anyone's right to free speech here. I
just wanted to make a valid point.

Have a nice day. :o)

Well now Gina, the terms gay and queer do go beyond sexual orientation. A shirt CAN be gay as in bright or lively, and i guess math problems can be queer, as in questionable or unconventional. Of course in Tim's usage of the word, I don't see how being a poser fan can be gay in ANY sense of the word.
