I just wanted to say something in defense of myself. When I said "bravo" to him, it had nothing to do with his attitude or approach on this board. I don't like that any more than you, and it definitely needs to stay on AOL where it came from.

That's all.

Ok, cool. Respect +2.

Yeah, but Middle America Rule No. 17 is to have a goatee.

I actually like Canada - so much so that I think of manifest destiny. Canada should be part of the USA.

America is becoming more retarded as time goes on

Last night the program "Queer eye for the straight guy" was shown for the first time in Australia.

I'm gay and I could barely stop myself from vomitting. I lasted about 7 minutes into the program. Talking about putting the gay "cause" back 50 years. Those 5 guys should get tazered at every queeny gesture until they stop. Not trying to make them straight but really, going through that guy's clothes with a pair of serving thingeys? Thats when I turned off.

And what was that in the van on the way to the guy's apartment "and he has recently lost x pounds" and they all clap? Really, what was that? Looked like something out of the audience of an Oprah show.

QEFTSG ridicules gays more than anything else I have seen in my life. You'd have to have the IQ of a coffee cup to watch and enjoy it.

As to being 14 and knowing you're gay? REAL EASY - well at least it was for me. I knew about 12 and I knew to keep it quiet - different world 26 years ago. By 15 I was sneaking out to see the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras and going to night clubs etc. And how'd I get into clubs so young? They didn't card people in Australia back then and I was already 6'2" tall (now 6'4").

As to the treatment you guys gay the gay kid? Bad manners - people at that age take criticism real bad and you guys gave him both barrels for no good reason.

Ok, I stopped reading there. I'm certain you then went on to ridicule the show and the US. Please consider the fact that the US is a very large country and if I ever saw that show on, I would quickly switch to Cartoon Network (unless Cartoon Cartoons were on) or Comedy Central. You want a show that sets back "the gay cause"? (btw, what the **** is the gay cause) Watch Will and Grace.

I am not the one that derailed it Sherlock.

Sorry but this "derail blaming" doesn't work anymore. The mods are clever to your plan.

You know the one I am talking about. Someone personally attacks me I respond and you or whoever start complaining about me derailing. They know what is up. You are wasting your breath.

In other words, it wont work anymore.

Hey, I created the The insult Zimphire because his opinions differ from your own thread to prevent people like Adam Betts from derailing threads and then blaming you for derailing them, but ThinkInsane decided that my sentiment was misguided.

Time to create an Insult Zimphire because his opinions differ from your own board?

I can't take credit for the signature. It came from a cartoon.

You'll have to thank Butch Hartman for it.

Who cares if you or he is gay? It's the promotion that is akward. I mean, there is no need to swing your sexuality around a Mac-centric message board (the rainbow sig and all).

I'm sorry an array of colours offends you so much.

Maybe if I put the silhouette of a curvaceous busty wench in there you could all be assured I was a normal heterosexual male, would that make you feel better? Oh no, wait then I'd be flaunting heterosexuality, WHICH PEOPLE DO DAILY. Can't please some people.

RAzaRazor · Sep 30, 2003, 01:38 AM

There's nothing wrong with your sig. I like your sig. I associate it with you and your posts, not with being gay. It's the way we recognise each other around here.

This thread has no point remaining whatsoever, and it needs to be put out of it's misery!

He isn't low, more of a redneck really.

RAzaRazor · Sep 30, 2003, 02:45 AM

No, I wouldn't even go so far to call him a redneck. I do have a little respect for him. To be a true redneck he would have to like NASCAR and marry his sister. I haven't seen his family tree, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't like NASCAR.
