Stupid Lesbians

A Greek court yesterday threw out the lawsuit brought by some folks from the island of Lesbos charging a gay rights group with demeaning its waterlocked citizenry by hijacking the word "Lesbian."

They say the name of the group Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece "insults the identity" of the natives there.

Dimitris Lambrou, the Lesbian dude who spearheaded the suit, is all wound up because he says, “My sister can’t say she is a Lesbian."

I have no idea why not, but that's what he claims. Maybe she's just not ready to leave the closet quite yet. I'm just surmising.

Yeah, evidently that's his main concern. Frankly I think he's probably got a bigger issue really when it comes to his own Lesbian pride than that of his sister's. Again, only a guess.

He did deny that the suit was homophobic in any way, of course, but still pointed out that the use of the L-word "violates the human rights of the islanders, and disgraces them around the world."

The dismissed case may now move on to the big time European Court, the attorneys threaten. Something must be done, after all!

It's so stupid it's funny somehow.

Is "Gay" next word up on the court's misnomer docket? Because as it turns out, believe it or not, most happy guys are not polesmokers nor happy ladies carpetmunchers. I'm just saying.

And then, what to do about that island of Dildo????

  1. LOL! Did he think everyone would think that people who lived in the town were lesbians including the men?

    I think he has shamed the town more than any word could ever do.

  2. Your right. It's so stupidly funny...that I don't even get it...

    And omg...that "island?" Never heard of it, but thought this part was funny...

    Today there is no human population on Dildo Island, but archaeologists have found clear evidence that people have been drawn to the island over thousands of years. What is the attraction?

    *giggling like a fourth grader*

  3. I know, the Dildo thing was very immature, but I thought it was funny. But really even without native Dildo population, it's just as ridiculous as the Lesbos guy.

  4. Seriously? In Greece...I mean hasn't that island been around like, forever? Suddenly, the history forgotten and a lawsuit? Almost sounds like a joke.

  5. No joke. Stupidity always trumps time and history.

I Think

I think I'm bored blogging. I think I'm done with it. I think what's the point? I think you should check out my blogroll instead. I think they say stuff better anyway.

Betty White "needs to start taking her relationship with God serious." Seriously?

I was one of those grassroots Facebook campaigners responsible for Betty White hosting Saturday Night Live the other night, so for that, let me just say: "You're very welcome!" I thought she was fantastic, better even than I had expected she might be, and by most accounts her coming on the show was a huge success. Except for some, who apparently had more eternal concerns weighing on their minds, precluding enjoying it so much. Like Jose, who while conceding that Betty White is legend "in this day and age of rebels and rockers" (I really don't know what that means, but it seems to be a good thing), is more concerned about her afterlife appearance instead, presumably being so old as she is. A legend, sure ... "However, I think Betty really needs to start taking her relationship with God serious. Betty can't please this new generation, she has nothing to prove to them. Her relationship with the Lord is what she needs to take serious." Well, all...

It Could Happen

I was digging deep again, as I do every year or so, into my box of keepsakes and relics that I really don't know why I kept them but did. Stuff I wrote as a kid (some of that, I must say, rather disturbing), old letters of the real life mailed sort, newspaper clippings of miscellany, that have strangely yellowed and gotten brittle already and that shit just ain't right since it seems not so long ago ... whatever, I'm getting old. From the Kansas City Kansan , newspaper that we got delivered daily, Friday, July 25, 1975, I had cut out and kept this one particular article headlined "Youngster completes first novel." I was always writing as a kid, so I remember very well snipping this one item, on account of the twelve-years-old youngster was my same age, and I very much wanted my own novel published. Of course I hadn't written it yet, but I figured this proved I could do it, too, kept it for an affirmation thingy. Over the years I've remembered saving that s...
