re: #417 Jimmah

Do you remember the recent braincrash over the use of the word “butthurt” in which a bunch of people accused us of being insulting to the gay community by using it? We asked them how exactly given that the term is not about gay sex, (and even if it was how in hell would that necessarily imply an insult to said community?). They just kept making insinuations about how we ‘knew perfectly well’, but they seemed unable to ‘flesh out’ their innuendos as it were, and they just sort of trailed off.

Heh. ‘braincrash’.

Of course I remember Jimmah. That, as every moment with you, is engraved on my heart forever.

It was especially funny that someone else linked Dan Savage, sex columnist, to point out that even the gay community doesn’t think of the word as having anything to do with any sexual act.

As per usual, it seems to be those most opposed to ‘unusual’ or ‘outre’ sexual acts who appear most obsessed by them…specifically, the notion that someone else, somewhere, is engaging in them and liking it.
