I am genuinely interested in the responses of my fellow Dopers, and there have been some very good ones. With the exception, of course, of your response. Yours isn’t even in the same zip code as accurate; it simply exists to point out why the SD’s masthead reads:

I see your point.

As soon as your “friends” started talking about how " The underlying goal (of gay marriage) is to get the choice of a homosexual lifestyle to be accepted as normal in our society."

You should have told them that there is no such thing as “homosexual lifestyle” and that is simply a term used by bigots who thing being gay is a choice.

There was no need for you to post this concern troll question in the first place. You deserved what you got.

That’s because you clearly suffer from Easily Amazed Syndrome, also know as Fox News Disease.

Well, we could always pit you for, as **Clothahump** says in the OP;

_…I got this totally half-assed piece of snark from you…_

We’ll have no half-assed snark on this board. You must snark harder next time.

To be fair, I hear it’s caused by a chemical overbalance in the brain.

Say **Clothahump** , here’s a thought:

Some friends of mine were saying that the whole civil rights movement in the '60s was just a plot to get everyone to accept that black people were human beings, and to accept their degenerate black lifestyle.

What do you think?

It worked. Far as I can tell, a life without B.B. King, Otis Redding or Richard Pryor wouldn’t be worth much.

Thirteen years of being told he’s a moron has given him the courage to evaluate his position on just about everything he’s wrong about (which, as it happens, is just about everything). Whether his opinions have changed after that evaluation remains to be seen, but in the meantime let’s discuss this theory he’s just heard about from his friends.

Nope. The subject of this pit, without doubt, is Clothahump himself. You could say almost everything he posts is inadvertently a pit of himself. He’s just that clueless, hate-filled, and stupid.

Very well done. The art form of properly reverse-pitting people has taken a nose dive in this forum - we need more well-researched “you’re a fucking douchebag, and here’s a dozen posts that back that up” posts.

Whoa, **Clothy** is one of those still saying being gay is a choice? You all know what this means, right? A heterosexual person knows they cannot simply choose to be sexually attracted to a person of the same sex. For example, I’m 100 percent for gay rights and same-sex marriage, but there’s no way I could somehow choose to be attracted to guys. Or somehow choose to have sex with a dude without any attraction, which I have never felt for any male.

Do closeted people really still not realize that when they say being gay or bi is a choice, they are outing themselves?

I’m struggling to figure out who is more stupid. You’re stupid “friends” with their whacko ideas, or you for not seeing those ideas for the whacko-ness that they are. That, or you’re a really bad troll.

no snark intended – when did the balance of thought shift? I swear the topic spurred some G D threads here. Or wewre those anomalies ?
