Shirts control how I think.
|

not that it bothers me, but youd probably get better reception with something different than gay. i'd where it
|
 |
How about "...is retarded"?

Moss on Jan 15 '04 I realise about the gay thing, although that is sort of the point. I'm using it only in an ironic sense.
|
|
Love the irony. The text flows nicely. Well done.
|

Don't get the GAY part...explain.

Moss on Jan 15 '04 It's not politically correct to say that something is "gay" in a negative sense. Saying that political correctness is gay is ironic. Yes, I sucked all the humour out of that one, didn't I?

Oh ok, european here. Not JUST stupid:) Wow, this line could be a nice tee:)
|
|
I agree with Moss.

The shirt "Homosexuals are so gay" is ironic. Saying Polical correctness is gay kinda is cliche, since it's so "in" to say things are gay these days. Which is kinda stupid because I like to think about what I say, and if you break that sentance down it would mean "Political Correctness is only attracted physically and emotionally to other political correctness."

"Political Correctness is only attracted physically and emotionally to other political correctness."

Gay doesn't have to mean 'homosexual'. On South Park, for example, it means 'crap' or 'bad', replacing 'homosexual' just as 'homosexual' displaced 'jovial' in the last century.
That's why I like this shirt. Not only is the sentiment something I strongly agree with, but the use of the word 'gay' gets the PC brigade all fired up, which makes the message all the more credible... and funny. |

On the other hand, the phrase "that's so gay" wouldn't be "politically incorrect" if the pathetic argument of "oh, we're not talking about gay people" wasn't such a giant steaming sack of horseshit, would it now?
Or in other words, you wanna use offensive slang? Fine, whatever. Just don't start acting weird when some people are actually offended by it and aren't too chickenshit to come forth and say so. It's disturbing that this comment is still totally relevant, despite being four years too late......oh well. Welcome to the Threadless blogs. |
