". .. OOOHH, I wanna dance with somebody. . .I wanna feel the HEAT with somebody. . .with somebody who loves me. . ."

I should probably actually go over there, since I'm not doing what I stayed home to do this afternoon, which is clean. Though, I'm not sure why I wanna pay $10 to listen to music over there when I can hear it loud and clear right here.

It's too hot out. My native ass is melting.

You should go out and be festive!!
If I didn't have to be up at 4:30 tomorrow morning, I'd be out myself, and I'm only proud of other people. lol.

But he's PROUD, and that's what counts.

I was walking down Broadway last night, and I passed this cute old straight couple talking about all of the important contributions that gay people make to society, just as two totally trashed twinks stumble past them. Totally fuckin' classic.

". . . it's the pleasure principle, ooooh ohhh!"

CarrieMpls said:

I know. I was up until 4am this morning being prideful, though, so today I wanted to get some shit done.

Chances are, I'll be out hella late again tonight. It's the one weekend per year that being out at the bars actually really sounds like fun to me.

Three Strikes, You're Out
A Do-It-Yourself Guide to Unpardonable Gay Crimes
BY LA FAUXSA NOSTRA (AKA THE SEATTLE GAY MAFIA)

Yeah, yeah, homosexuals are valuable members of society—worthy of equal rights in housing, employment, health care, marriage, and anything else you've got. (Except NASCAR—freaky straights can keep that shit.) But that doesn't mean the gays are beyond reproach. Below is a list of crimes, from quirky queer peccadilloes to first-degree homosexual felonies. Many of these crimes may seem minor, and indeed pose little problem when taken on their own. But accumulation is fatal. In legal parlance: One strike—say, an excessive zealousness for Rent—is fine. Two strikes—excessive zealousness for Rent and ownership of a Chihuahua—is acceptable. But three strikes—loving Rent, owning a Chihuahua, and cannibalizing the corpses of all those dead hookers in your basement—and you're out. Out like Uggs in the summer, out like Nicole Richie's jutting collarbones, OUT. Your text messages will not be returned. Your Evites will go unanswered. True love will elude you. You'll be cast out of gay society—yes, even Thumpers—and banished to a lonely hell of your own making.

See for yourself! Mix and match! Good luck!

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I think we kinda get a pass for pride.

HereToRockYourWorld said:

true...but still, if i were to see one more itty-bitty dog today, i woulda puked in the middle of hennepin avenue.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I have to admit, I don't get the itty bitty doggy thing.

My Rottweiler thinks they're really cute, though.

Ah, I'm on that list more than three times too. It's all in fun. . .

Late to the thread but Happy Pride, my friends!

i did pride in NY... the parade was I N C R E D I B L E. it was HUGE! Hillary marched, that was awesome, and lots of NY politicians as well.

the best moment though was seeing the gay policepeople and firefighters in their uniforms. the crowd went absolutely crazy for them, and they got a bigger cheer than any other group. it really touched me and made me tear up.

there was also a float that was playing nasty girl that stopped in front of us for a bit, which was awesome to hear some prince. people in the crowd were rocking out to it too

HereToRockYourWorld said:

crap, i am guilty of five... although i would be guilty of a few more on that list in the past tense
