Kids?! I been saying that since 6th grade. Well, you're only 5'6", right? Don't exercise much? I'll take my chances.
I don't like being told what not to say when I'm not prejudiced. You do know that gay meant "happy", and still does, before it was co-opted? And come to think of it, how is it a slur if it means happy and carefree? It's not like...uh...WOP or SPIC or CHINK, none of which mean good things.
