That's so straight

Everybody makes mistakes
Everybody makes mistakes
Even me
Just be free
This is a place
Where in the end
It happens in
Our world within

The Duke and the Admiral went paddling last week.

On their expedition they talked about many things. One of the most fascinating discussions was around the history of the Gay World Order- GWO for short.

For those who aren't aware, most historians agree that the GWO began with the second coming of the baby jesus. What was amazing about the second coming was that it was two men that made the baby jesus (it was not an immaculate conception). And there were actually two baby jesuses, twins infact, and these two twins were both gay. And with the birth of the twin gay baby jesuses society's crutch of heterosexual reproduction was no longer needed.

It was an amazing start to the next phase of evolution. Homo erectus, homo sapien, and finally the homo sexual.

There were a lot of different changes and cultural phenomenon that came about during the development of the GWO. Enough to fill many, many blog postings. I could tell you about the straights that still live, scrounging for berries and fish in the woods, ruining the best hiking spots. I could talk about the four great gay houses, the families of the twin baby jesus direct descendants. Or I could discuss the complex moral argument around straight 'rehabilitation'.

Linguistically, one of the most rapid changes was the emergence of a new meaning for the word 'straight'. As the GWO took over, the term straight quickly came to signify all that was dirty, unnatural and ugly in the world. People everywhere started saying things like 'that's so straight' or 'that's so fucking straight' to describe things like cheap red wine and plaid.

To show you belong/identify with the GWO I encourage you to start referring to things that aren't cool as 'straight'. To give you a idea of what's straight now I've created the pic below.
