Gay Thursday - 5/19

GAY* THURSDAY!

This week on Gay Thursday, a notable collection of transgendered and similarly identity challenged people showed up near movie theaters in their most outrageous Pride Parade costumes.



Fights between people with brightly colored swords happened often, though police largely ignored these gay duels. The street parties lasted well into the night, then at midnight the streets slowly began to clear.

* Gay: 1 a : happily excited : MERRY b : keenly alive and exuberant : having or inducing high spirits 2 a : BRIGHT, LIVELY b : brilliant in color

Who's being a bigot. We are celebrating happily excited, exuberant, brilliantly colored life events.

BTW, how many names do you have?

Okay Cat I am busted. I have no problem with gay happy people but I admit a certain prejudice against Star Wars geeks.

You can just call me Sybil. IF the rest of me's don't have a problem with it, which I'm sure some of myselves will. My others will help them-me's get over it.

And is that any way to welcome a first time poster to your blog? Sheesh. (~;)

BTW--if you WEREN'T a bigot, why would you even use the term--much less NOTICE "colored"('life events')?? Hmmm...? (~;

Ssshhhh Pile! Next thing ya know they'll be filing for special civil rights privileges!

Who would WANT to go to the flick the first night just to frustratingly have to spend your time trying to look around those costumes and 3 ft. tall head gear to see the movie?

Although I think the whole camping out a day or two before thing would actually be fun to do at least one time..just for grins....and preferably for a WHAM, Hall & Oates, Backstreet Boys or Cyndi Lauper concert. [j/k]

Sorry, let me rephrase.

*Apu from the Simpsons voice* Thank you. Please come again!

KJ,
I'm not a fan of Simpsons, so I can't actually place the voice of Apu, but I laughed nonetheless.
(I think I have a good minds ear guess, too)
