I'm going to call it
In five years time the next best selling author will use the phrase "that's gay!"
In a conversation
When describing a setting
Because it has become so common.
When I walk into a grocery store
And I see probably the most putrid item of food I will ever set my eyes on
I will often describe it as: disgusting, foul, inedible, and even, who would even eat that?
But I would never say: "man, that looks gay."
When I'm at the cinema
And there is a choice between two movies: the sappy romance movie with the unoriginal plot or the Epic action movie that again, probably has an unoriginal plot.
I will go with the action movie 90% of the time.
But I would never say, "man, that movies gay," unless, of course, it was literally about gay people. (I'd probably go see that movie instead then).
When I see my friend playing a video game that maybe I don't find interesting
I will wonder: how could someone play that? It is unethical, illogical, etc.
But I would never say, "man, that game is gay."
When I hear someone
Describe a certain object as it being gay
It makes me want to carry little thesauruses around so I can hand them out like entry prizes
So that maybe
Just maybe
They'll find a more suitable adjective to describe their situation other than "gay"
Because right now
The words I'm coming up with to describe them as is: illiterate, incompetent and, really, really, fucking stupid.
