That's still the definition. What, does "word" mean "I agree" and "dog" mean "friend"?

Maybe in 50 years (but hopefully not).

If you say "Wow, I'm really gay for my friend" to anyone in the US, they will look at you strangely. If you say that you are saying... well, the obvious. Even if you actually mean that you're happy for your friend because he got a new job or something.

If, however, you say "I have a dog", people would understand that you have a medium-sized furry animal, NOT that you have a friend. Same with usage of "word".

Heck, over the past couple of years, "gay" has become the preferred term for referring to homosexual males, because "homosexual" is used so much by right-wingers in a negative sense.

I agree that it's most widely accepted definition is homosexual, but I dislike when people (Like lord wille, spammer king) use it to mean "bad."

I object to it being used to describe anything and everything "That program was gay", "The park is gay", "Why cant cars not be so gay", "f*cking gay cutlery", "omg that music is sooo gay", "The kettles being gay".

Then there's the omfg insults such as "gaylord" or "gay mong", both of which seem like wtf insults rather than ouch that wasnt nice..

Then their are the horde sof homophobic teenage boys who go around calling everything gay, ahem, if you hate gay thigns so much why doy ou say the word gay on average 30 times an hour? Are they really that obsessed with ti all?

ahem, pelase forgive me for my outburst about homophobic peopel obsessed with homosexual things, is cutlery really enough to spark off homosexual isnecurities?

I use "Gay" as "Bad". I know its not right, but sue me, its become a habit, and the fact is, everyone does it.

I also object to the idea that any MMO could possibly be as good as Oblivion. Morrowind, hell DAGGERFALL beats the living crap out of even the best MMO out there.

I think I would rather play Arena then World of Warcraft.

It's a bit sad, but there are plenty of people who're crazy homophobic like that, and you don't even realize they're like that.

Homophobia is overrated and very stupid. The gays are friendly (at least those I've met in my life) and harmless. Sure they act in a strange way compared to the macho culture of western males, and it can be unnerving if you are used to macho stuff around you, but apart from that they are really like you and me, apart from a slight difference in sexual habits. Hey, we all have our fair share of kinks, don't we?

Now, the real issue are those stinking Jews!

=P

Bah, I hate gays that try to hard. Although that goes for emo and gothtards also.

I'm shocked, Smoth. Shocked and dismayed. Why didn't you post this pic?
