Off to bed. "20/20" is doing a story tonight about how it's possible...
to walk in a room and discover whether someone is gay. This sounds more stupid than words can possibly express.

So, good night all. Stay out of trouble. PLEASE? :-)

1. I know how!!
You walk in to the room, and ask them.

Can they do a segment on me now? I'm amazing and magical.

2. Huh?
If I walk into a room and see someone singing along with the soundtrack of "Rent", I'll scream "aahhhh-HA!"

Something like that?

4. Oh, let me guess
They're basing it on what people look at when you walk in the room, right? :eyes: Stereotypical freaks.

6. It's really simple...
Edited on Fri Aug-05-05 09:08 PM by Bat Boy
Make sure that the room you walk into is a gay bar.

Then proclaim everyone is gay.

That should do it with about 98% accuracy.

8. Likely.
Now, envision Stossel in mirrored sunglasses, a brown leather bomber jacket, a white wife-beater T shirt, tight jeans and motorcycle boots. Red bandana hanging out of his back pocket.

Test Your Gaydar
Can You Tell If Someone's Gay?
By JOHN STOSSEL

"...Homosexuality is routinely hidden. Movie star Rock Hudson fooled almost everyone for years.

Lots of people were surprised when Rosie O'Donnell came out..."

12. Why do they waste time with developing the gaydar?
What we really need is a lying-ass-son-of-a-bitchdar to keep scum from taking over the White House.
