<< personally, i don't care if you "get it" or not. the point is other people "get it" and it's funny to them. just about all jokes are based upon pain, hurt or insensitivity. should we start banning a sense of humor now? will that make all you PC freaks happy? you don't like a play on words using gay, too bad; other people don't like jokes about other subjects, so what? they're jokes, that's it. get over it. >>



So as long as my joke has a good punchline and it makes people laugh, it's ok to use "great person","jew","beloved patriot","homo","gay", or whatever I want in it. In the context of a joke, I'm not responsible for my actions. I get it now.

It amazes me how thin-skinned and excessively sensitive and you are. You ever see a Mel Brooks movie call Blazing Saddles? It is pretty much great person and jew jokes from beginning to end. Let me introduce you to a word - S A T I R E.

I'd call it eGay... The site's too messy and unorganized to do anything, and they're full of frauds. Besides, I got news for you. Your kids will one day know words MUCH worse than "gay"... shock! horrors!!!

Aside from that, I do have some very conservative views on homosexuality, but thats beside the point. Why? It has nothing to do with my support of the word eGay. (for real reasons, please see sentence #2.)

Man, the world sure has gotten anal and PC in the last few years. When I was a kid back in the mid to late 80's, all the neighborhood kids would play a game called "Smear the Queer" where you try to nail someone with a dodgeball. An innocent, fun game. These days, if the kids would play smear the queer, some stupid parent, or PC type would get all mad and raise a big controversy.
