was watching tv and a comerical came up telling us to stop saying "thats so gay"?

[bevi]

so now im wondering, for all the gay's are yawl offended by that saying?

 

[Kate]

My friend is gay and she really doesn't care and says it to other people as well.

 

[Ris Tourterelle]

I'm slightly offended, yes. You're using "gay" as a synonym for "stupid," which implies the entire gay community is stupid.

You could just as easily say "stupid" instead.

 

[E_Tard]

When you say it in a derogatory manner, you are using it as an insult. Yes, it is offensive in that usage.

Well kinda, I usually brush it off.
But seriously, consider all the other complex and simple words people could have used instead of gay.

Does it offend you if I hate something dumb and I say 'That's so Bevi'?
