I was feeling rather gay the other day. No offense, Rosie O'Donnell, I mean to say I was happy. I'm sorry if my comment was insensitive to homosexuals. I suppose it could be construed as homophobic. Poor choice of words on my part. I should really watch what I say more closely. I can totally understand how you might be offended when I, a heterosexual man, use a word like "gay" so carelessly. I really should always think about the possibility that any single word or action on my part might offend homosexuals generally, even those who don't yet admit they are homosexuals.
If you don't know what I'm referencing here, check out the latest celeb feud, this time between
Kelly Ripa and O'DonnellHas the US celebrity worshipping culture not had enough yet of Rosie O'Donnell? Why must be be subjected to this loud-mouthed, obnoxious, brain dead alleged comedian? Some of the elements of
Rosie's comic routine include a recent claim that terrorists shouldn't be feared because "they're mothers and fathers." Rosie also claims "radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam in a country like America where we have separation of church and state."
I suppose Rosie was busy making the other molecules laugh the day Gaia handed out brains. Is that an insensitive remark to all stupid people? So be it. I can't spend every waking moment of my life worrying about not offending people like O'Donnell who almost constantly offends me.
