I am boycotting the word "gay" when referencing Sodomites.
They stole our normal word and have twisted it into a perversion.

OK, have fun with that. Hope you don't mind conducting a one man fight against changing language. Here's a tip, though: Even if you happen to feel happy, don't call yourself gay in a truck stop.
@Arctic Knight: Please don't label all of us for what one idiot who unfortunately has the same name says.
Well, whenever you watch "West Side Story", you'd better stick your fingers in your ears when the song "I Feel Pretty" commences, then. And it's sung by a female character.
And you haven't stolen the normal city name of Sodom and twisted that into a perversion?
A century or so ago, the modern swedish word for "horny" meant "happy". Languages change all the time, that's what's normal. It's more perverted to expect words to stay the same all the time, Tommie-boy.
From now on I shall never visit the state of Tennessee. Both because this douchebag is in it and because if I get sick or injured I'll have to win the lottery in order to pay my medical bills. Either the state healthcare lottery or the actually multi-million dollar jackpot lottery, given the cost of medical procedures these days.
First off Tom, I have to say this which is in the bible:
Now this was the sin of Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen. Ezekiel 16:49-50
I'm thinking the real Sodomites here are...well...you guys.
Second, I would explain the evolution of language, but you probably don't believe in evolution.

Oh, you mean you think we're referring to those who are quite unwelcoming of outsiders when we speak of "Teh Gay"?
I mean, that IS the crime of Sodom... not being homosexual or anything like that.
From The Penguin Dictionary of Historical Slang:
"gay. (of women)leading an immoral, or a harlot's life: 1825, Westmacott. 2. Slightly intoxicated: C19-20; ob. Perhaps originally a euphemism."
"gay, turn. To become a prostitute: since ca. 1870."
"gay girl. A prostitute. Non-aristocratic mid-C19-20"
"gay house. A brothel: C19-20"
"gay life, lead a. To live immorally; live by prostitution: colloquial or slang, from c.1860"
"gaying instrument, the. The male member, C19, low colloquial."
"gaying it. Sexual intercourse. C19-20 low colloquial."
Yeah, those gays really spoilt the meaning of gay, amirite?
You do that, sunshine. If nothing else, I have found that there's an inverse corellation with the amount of times someone says the word "sodomite" and the desire I have to be around them. So please, let it be known how deep in yuor hate you are, so I can avoid you like the fucking plague.
When you're with the Flintstones,
