TAKE BACK THE RAINBOW...i'm sick of being monotone.

Post by Simon of the Playa » Tue Oct 16, 2007 5:30 am

Yeah, that's right....I'M STRAIGHT, DONT HATE, JUST BECAUSE I PROCREATE!

I want some color back in my life...


Here's the Deal, The Queer Nation can have Yellow, Pink and Purple...The Straights get Blue and Red and Green....

Orange is Bi....


take back the rainbow, stop being monotone! Straight does NOT have to mean Grey or Khaki ANYMORE!

I never gave up my rainbow! I used to drive this old volvo station wagon with a huge rainbow screen over the back, my friends would always tell me to take it out...cause it meant your gay!
I hate the way that America has chewed up the English language and spit it in the gutter!

I am GAY! most days,wish all 24/7!
Im happy and free spirited! Im heterosexual, but that doesnt mean Im not GAY!

I would hope that all people were GAY, but alas, some people just forget how to smile, or forget entirely on how to get to a place in the heart to smile about!

I was just being Mr. Thesaurus

Did anyone see the movie Love and Sex with Jon Favreau? One of my favorite lines was "Excuse the hell outta me, Miss Thesaurus!"

No one can take the rainbow from you. If one group starts to use it and you back away from using it, what's that say about you? Now I would shy away from a swastika or white hood, but I don't fear the rainbow. I'd be proud to be associated with what it means, which BTW is typically "gay friendly".

The truth is, if you're a freak you can use the rainbow without regard to sexuality. I.e. Issac Newton.

Also, you can use it if you are a lame 70s stereotype.

I'm still looking for the Ultraviolent.

I'm gay, and you can have the damn rainbow. Personally I can't stand the damn thing- I keep thinking of unicorns & fluffy cartoon clouds when I see it.
*bleh*

I do, however, protest blue & orange not being available. I think we should just share them all. Pretty pretty colors....yum.

I'm not a rainbow type.

I prefer burgundy, black, copper and turquoise, personally.

OK FOLKS.... larry flynt has weighed in on the issue, and wants to bid on Fuchsia for all the porno pervs out there....

The Bents can have powder pink, or pastel florida room pink, but hot pink has just been claimed by the straights..


sorry, but you may not wear the hot pink fake fur assless chaps to burningman next year UNLESS you are straight.....you will be sued otherwise.


PURPLE WILL ALWAYS BE GAY.....it cant help it, it was born that way.

an honestly, WHO BUYS YELLOW CARS? besides 17 year old Dagos with ego problems...


evidently, TEAL has been claimed by the Hard-Core Lesbians, since so many of them have matching pick-up trucks and dont want to spend the money to change them.


if you want a color, you better get them now, before the mexicans take them, and you KNOW how they are with color.


tacky,tacky,tacky......

Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Guys Are Too.......

Post by Rabbi Dali Rick » Thu Oct 18, 2007 4:24 pm

Ok here's my story (One time at band camp)



My best friend (we'll call him "Ish") loves rainbows, his apartment is full of them. I call him on it all the time but he just laughs it off (no he's not gay he has a sex freak, wacko, midget for a girlfriend). So anyhoo, three years ago we stop at Walmart for supplies, He finds and adapts a sunshade thingy, made out of (2) two 1" white PVC pipe that arcs over for the plywood platform bolted to the roof of his MPV Van, and of course the slip over cotton shade piece, has a Rainbow pattern (to which I protested of course but to no avail, it is his car). Not to mention we have these rainbow colored 15" tall Mushroom made from spray foam out in front of our camp. We go the whole week of Burningman without one woman coming into our camp. The last day we get into a conversation about the Rainbow thing in our camp and we go at each other about it's meaning. It's night time and in the middle of the conversation two guys walk up to us and ask us in "Hey you know where the "Fungi's" are?" Trying to remain calm I say "There ain't no damn "Fun Guys" here. Try up on the Esplanade. You may find some "Fun Guys" there." Turning back to Ish I scream "SEE SEE I told you! Take those damn rainbows Down now" . So the next morning as we are packing to leave the flood starts. Our camp is unidated with women, and I mean packed up until close the doors of the van. And even then we left some girl who said she would just wait on her boyfriend there and waved good bye as we drove off.



Bottomline never put fake mushrooms in front of your camp unless you want to field drug request all night.

And you missed the opportunity to call him "Bob--that's the ticket--the Wop."
