AMERICAblog: The Lesbians are angry

  • echoman2000 · 1 year ago
    i take it you're not watching c-span. everything is HA HA HA, hey john? keep on acting like you haven't shot a hole in your dingy. it's sinking bro.

    just saying.

    haha. you hear similar complaints about how the word 'gay' was usurped. i suppose if my name were 'Black' i would have a grievance too. the way to fix this is simply to make gay and lesbian (and black) non-insults. then to avoid confusion, use a capital letter as in D(d)emocrat.

    Wasn't there a law suit filed by the residents of Lesbos recently saying that Lesbian was their brand name?
  • ndtovent · 1 year ago
    LOL!! Life must be pretty boring on the isle of Lesbos these days. Is that all they have to bitch about?
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Actually, the guys from Lesbos are really "Lesbians" also.
  • John Aravosis · 1 year ago
    Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I think our Greek friend in the article couldn't admit that what really unnerves him is that he's a lesbian too :-)
  • risa87 · 1 year ago
    Too much, a little too late for the people from Lesbos. At this point, it would probably be easier to change the name of their island.

    I think there's a movie in there somewhere...

    only a matter of time before the citizens of Uranus complain about the meaning of Uranian. and i hope this doesn't open the forum to puns on Uranus.

    O/T, Can you believe medical doctors buying gas at costco to save 5 cents a gallon, going "postal"?

    As a proud Uranian, I resent the implication that our fair planet should ever be snickered about in that way I know you all are right nowon Earth.

    Stop it! Yes, you!

    And it's pronounced UR-uh-nus, NOT ur-A-nus.

    Thanks. Good talk.

    you mean Uranus the amber planet?
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    what's wrong with being a Lesbian?
  • Busboy · 1 year ago
    Got any pics, tls?
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    not for you, loser.

    I always wanted to visit PHUKET in Thailand, just to get travel sticker on my luggage.
  • mlwjones · 1 year ago
    If the Lesbians of Lesbos are looking to part with their property for cheap due to the shame, I'll gladly pick it up and be the biggest male Lesbian out there. Sounds like a great place.

    I'm still waiting on my eassy, at least two paragraphs long. You need to apologize to S in Tokyo.
  • unrepentant_expat · 1 year ago
    The citizes of Lesbos must find it frustrating to see what pops up whenever they google the name of their island...

    Hey, after this lawsuit wraps up, maybe Wonder Woman and her pals back on Amazon Island can sue a certain popular online bookseller for swiping their name.

    They're discussing Peak Oil on Charlie Rose.
  • Õ¿Õ · 1 year ago
    Barrel of oil going to $300 next year.
  • thoughtcrime · 1 year ago
    I have a solution. How about calling the LESBIANS "LESBOS"?

    But don't ask me whether I mean the islanders or the gay women.

    That was South Park's take on it.

    How about Lesbosians?

    This reminds me of a town at the southwestern tip of Martha's Vineyard. The town was called "Gay Head" since its incorporation, but in the 90s the townspeople voted to change the town's name to "Aquinnah."

    In Columbus there's a fairly prominent Gay Street downtown...I half expect to hear a snicker or two whenever the bus I'm on has its automatic announcement for the Gay Street stop.
  • JacksonThersites · 1 year ago
    Oh, I'm so sad to hear that, the summer I spent on Martha's Vineyard doing a dance/theatre project a group of us dancers and actors, male and female, straight and gay went to Gay Head for gay pride weekend and spent the day on the beach with a college wrestling team that inspired us to join them in smearing our naked bodies from toe to crown with the soft wet clay from the cliffside. One of my fondest gay pride's ever.

    All your proper nouns are belong to us.
  • oh_yeah · 1 year ago
    But you know this is the mindset of many in that part of the world. It's not something we can understand readily - which is part of the problem.
