Giordano's for deep dish pizza. Some of the best breakfast food is found at one of three Nookie's (Nookie's, Nookie's Too and Nookie's Tree). The Giordano's and Nookie's Tree can be located in the Lakeview neighborhood close by Wrigley Field (Giordano's is about three blocks east of Halsted on...
I completely agree. There was no violence in the add at all. I certainly did not interpret it as an add condoning violence against anything (expect perhaps chest hair).
Be careful when using all-encompassing remarks like "how the gays turn it into..." I certainly am gay and am not turning...
Ok, take your post and replace every instance of the word gay with the word ASIAN, and every instance of the word heterosexual with the word WHITE. See what I mean now?
Go back several pages and re-read my second post in this thread. I did consider the intent of the ad was not to attack gay people, and in fact actually believe it to be a stab at homophobia at this point. I am no longer taking issue with the commercial, only with the additional comments I have...
The first term is highly offensive. If you had a friend or relative that you spoke with, would you openly refer to them as a "homo" to their face? If no, why not? It is like using the "N" word when speaking with an African American.
The second term is out dated and clinical in nature...
I react like this when confronted with someone that has the mentality of "you are in the minority, therefore have no right to defend yourself." To that, I do not think there can be a overreaction...discounting physical violence of course.
His chain of reasoning is dysfunctional, and...
Using the term "homos" is derogatory to ALL gay people. What is your definition of a "homo" vs. a gay person? Is the "homo" the one that will stand up, question, and take to task those that discriminate and the gay person the one that is quiet, doesn't get "uppity", and generally pretends to...
I love how you conveniently ignored my later statement that I found how it could be viewed as a stab at homophobia. Just because your initial interpretation was different than someone else's does not make your interpretation (or any one else's) correct. None of us truly knows what the intent...
Hmmm.
"I don't see what the problem is. That is a pretty typical male reaction to homosexuality."
So, a reaction because it is "typical" is OK?
and...
"The homosexuals are the minority here and have no real business getting up in arms about something like that...."
So, tyranny...
"and if you even begin to think that it does, take the broomstick out of your ass...."
Wow. You are definitely in need of taking the broomstick out of YOUR ass I think. Or, let me help....:D
Galil=cool! Nice weapon. Expensive, too. The AR's are much less expensive nowadays, but are not based upon the AK system like the Galil which does detract from reliability a little bit. My AR's are more accurate though! :)
Umm, you are not up to date on the latest shoulder fired SAM systems are you? Stingers=old news. SA-7s also are old news, comparable to the old Red Eye system. If someone has been selling SA-18s, then our aircraft are in real trouble as the SA-18 is more destructive, and arguably more...
Oh, to be fair, my heterosexual friend may have also been anticipating my thoughts on the subject and said he thought it was homophobic just to keep the peace with me. I can be a real bitch to deal with.
