My mother just made my sisters turn off the TV because they were watching "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." This program is "inappropriate."

I'm very confused. How can it be inappropriate? Simply by virtue of having gay cast members/"characters"? So I guess every movie with Ian McKellen in it is inappropriate too. Or would it just be inappropriate if Ian were trying to give people makeovers?

It's times like these I'm glad I never fully explained Oz to my mom. Or the fact that I more or less read gay porn on the internet.

Reminds me of the time my dad freaked out when we were watching The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Only that was more amusing, because he was like "This movie's fucking GAY!" and it was scary. But it's funny now.

Take this, Sean!

Brief off-topic note: I have created a drinking game! All you need is an episode of MI-5. Every time you see Tom's eyes, take a drink. If he blinks and then opens them, it's another drink. I played it for about one minute, and then I finished my glass. I'm still wired (I played with Mt. Dew, otherwise I'd probably be dead). Anyway...
