Hey wait! I think these are yours...
A: You think?

A: What on earth are you doing?
B: I'm packing my bag to go home.
A: Oh my god, that's so gay!
I don't get this at all, because the sentence doesn't make sense with either meaning of gay. So a kind request to people - stop using gay as a synonym for boring, odd or uncool. I do not like the fact that I can't even use 'gay' to say I'm carefree without being teased to death about it.

My sociology textbook on the definition of marriage - "Marriage is a contract for the production and maintenance of children."
I don't think I'll ever forget this definition in my life. Especially not with my classmate sitting beside me shouting "Marriage is not a factory!"
I hate the fact that 'gay' has only one connotaion and that is homosexual. Doesnt anyone know that gay also means happy?? In fact that was the original usage of that word!!
ReplyDeleteAnd your sociology textbook needs a serious revamp :)
