Entirely off topic... but...

I noticed that one of the tags on this article is "gay"...

I am up to here with this 1984'esque redefinition of words. If you want to say "I hate gay people" then fucking stand up and say that... And if you don't, then why are you absent mindedly throwing around the label of a group to mean something sucks? Words hurt.

Think about it for a second. Would it be appropriate to say "That's so black" or "That's deaf"?

And before someone mentions it - yes, calling something "Retarded" really hurts when someone you know has a mental disability. Fuck political correctness --- but there is a difference between hate speech (even "unintentional"), and saying what you mean.
