I mean, you do see the irony of saying that on a website filled with Linux-crazed people, right…?

It’s the same car regardless of location. If you can’t see the parking lines then extrapolate, idiot.

Get a smaller truck, jfc. What if the lines were children?

Agreed!

But there’s also a certain expectation of “flamboyance” from the gay community, or you’re “not gay enough” and I think a lot of self-identifying queer peeps are to blame.

On top of the poor history of the word, I just don’t want to be associated with colourfulness and energy because that’s simply not who I am. People from outside looking into LGBTQ+ assume that that’s who gay men need to be because of media representation… It makes me tired.

Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.

I wish it was, but then there’s posts like the recent Frenchposting in the memes community, you should see the comments.

Non-American here. You all keep making up the vilest “jokes” about French people. The sheer level of ignorance and disrespect deserves nothing but contempt and derision. And that’s what you’ll get from me and most of Europe.

Better learn to cope 😒.
