My trip to the gay bar. The reason why I have homophobic tendencies. - Page 4

Here, I think, is the bottom line.

People get downright irate when a message board is not moderated as they like, but nobody is served well by an entirely unmoderated one.

People complain about cops, but without them you have modern Iraq.

It's a tough tightrope to walk and so I beg slack of you if it looks like I mess up from time to time.

While I haven't agreed with some of the stuff you've done, Tony, I've always respected you for maintaining and keeping the Cellar up. In this case, I think you were 100% right and you have my full support. (Not like you need it, but it's there if you want it.)

Well you better hope he doesn't fall off that tightrope 'cause he might land on you. Of course you'll never know what hit you 'cause when we yell LOOKOUT you'll be taking a bow.

"The reason I have homophobic tendencies" would be more convincing if the story didn't make perfectly clear he was a flaming homophobe beforehand. ;-)

Jeez-o-man...the old joint really is hopping these days, innit.

Yes..but we still miss you.

hmm.. maybe I'm just not annoying you people enough or I have been written off as a firmly parttime cellarite.. (or by the time I get back to a post it's long gone) i found the atmosphere here to be rather welcoming.

too this whole gay thing... alright Lawrence Kansas has sooooo many homosexuals that it's a common place thing, there are even a couple of crossdressing bands.. and near as I see it I'm okay with that (not my cup o' tea as it were) but I tell ya what, you go into a bar with a high concentration of very very openly homosexual people.... pffth no frat boys and given the choice, I'd rather talk to the guy in the dress.. take the occasional winking at or being hit on, 99 times out of 100 when you say

"oh.. sorry, I'm straight" and then get back on the conversation thread you were on in the first place, you really get to meet some rather interesting people

anyway... people are for the most part very very silly creatures
