Finally, you admit that you are a bigot. Good for you. See, doesn't that feel better?

anyhow, I didn't punch him, because I didn't want him to think I was homophobic. Should I have punched him, then?

Cat's out of the bag, though. Once a word is in the common parlance, you can't just issue an edict from on high being like, "YOU CANNOT USE THAT WORD IN THAT MANNER ANY LONGER. STOP IT. STOP IT RIGHT NOW, I HEARD THAT." At that point you're just the "Well, ACKtually..." douchebag at a party, magnified by authority, and everyone is going to ignore you. It would have been nice if we had a better word to start with, but this is the one that caught on.

Wait, what?

I thought you were talking about 'homophones.' Never mind.

All that said, this is dumb.
