Also, Yale may have a better in-house queer society, where they don’t need facebook to connect people. Or the gay yalies maye just have better things to do than kill time on facebook?

P.S. Northrams, I know. I was musing on a fact, and not attacking you. Although I could be construed as pointed at times, I never really meant to challenge. Its interesting that you mention your gay friends and relatives, because mine actually turned me away from saying those things becuase they found it offense. I won’t laugh though, because it means I would be hurting them. I’m not trying to be PC; I just really don’t want to do make them feel bad. So I guess its all just a matter of perception, since what’s funny to one person may not be to another. I just know I won’t teach my kids to say those things, since even if they don’t mean harm, I would be promoting the fact that saying something is gay to mean bad is acceptable. However I encourage you to do what feels best, since as I said, I was just thinking about the connotations of “gay” today and how people view homosexuals.
