34. Pointed this out weeks ago, and was roasted alive...
I pointed this out weeks ago, and was roasted alive by people saying I needed to get a sense of humor. Most people I know seem to think I have a great sense of humor, and frankly I spend most of my time laughing. Some Brokeback jokes ARE funny, for example a Photoshopped picture of Bush and a Oil Barrel using a Brokeback poster with the caption, "Why can't I quit you?" After his State of the Union Address WOULD be funny, and I'd laugh.

It's the stereotypical jokes that piss me off. I find them insulting and demeaning, and more often than not they have little to nothing to do with the movie - they are directed at gay people or homophobes who are uncomfortable with gay people. They might as well just run around chanting "Faggot Movie! Faggot Movie!" over and over again, it amounts to the same thing. It makes me want to kick their asses.
