Do you ever use the word "gay" to mean "happy"?

[loinburger]

"That guy is so gay"
"Oh, you mean that he has penises inserted into his butt?"
"I mean that he's happy!"
"Oh"
"He's happy because he has penises inserted into his butt"

When I was really young (yes, the ****ing stone age) Happy was the only definition.
Now I wouldn't think of using it to describe happy.
The movement has effectively eradicated that definition.

Do you drink homo milk?

entering middle school in the seventies and being really quite clueless, a kid asked me if I was gay.

Of course I said yes.

Are you kidding? I don't even mo my lawn anymore!

ACK!

No.

Well, actually I use Gay to mean well... homosexual. Even in Finnish. YOu either use the word homo, or gay. Homo seems like a derogatory term in english but it's not in finnish so it's homos to me. I certainly did see (and HEAR) a good old gay who definitely was both homosexual gay AND happy in the train yesterday. With a comic lisp that has nothing to do with programming. I felt a bit like an idiot but to be honest, I found the guy a bit funny with his accent, he was so flaming and loud that I had to hold back to not laugh. Not because he is gay, obviously, but because the way he talked was funny to me. Sorry but it was.

Last known un-ironic, non-derogatory use of "gay" in American pop culture: 1962.

There's something queer about this thread.

I think "whips the dolphin" is substantially more tasteful than "fudge packer," "butt pirate" or "traveler on the Hershey highway."

[Thoth]

Would you rather have happy sex? or Gay sex?




and "whipping the dolphin" sounds more like a slang term for beating the monkey than it does for rump rangering.

Were the 1890's gay because of Oscar Wilde and Peter Tchaikovsky?
