Many of my friends and acquaintances say things like: "Man, that's gay" or "Damn, my computer is gay." My response has been, "I didn't know that inanimate objects have sexual preferences." That just kinda stops them in their tracks, and they feel like idiots.
The word gay has become so synonymous with "bad" that people don't even think about the people they're bashing. It's kinda like te "bros before hos" thing. I don't like having anyone referring to me as a ho because I'm a woman, just as I'm sure a lot of homosexual don't like their friends saying that something bad is "gay."
