barkis's journal. It concerns the movie Camp about a group of gay teens and a couple of str8 teens at a theatre summer camp.
Barkis: HEY!! Who sent me the DVD of Camp from my wishlist??
TTL comments: Oh, I started watching Camp at my sister's house! The opening with the kids singing Losing My Mind was priceless. I never finished it and here's my prediction: the fags never get romance but the str8 kid does. Am I right? Am I right?
Barkis: BINGO!
TTL:
God fucking dammit!
Hi, we're a cool gay-themed movie and have all kinds of sympathy for you downtrodden faggots and we will give you a big ol' shout-out. YO! But we don't want to see you tongue-wrestling or nothing. That's just gross. Stay in the corner and be the witty fag best friend even in a movie about musical theatre summer camp, would you? It'll help sales.
And the fucking FUCKING Advocate gave it the cover story.
The Advocate loves to put "sympathetic" str8s on the cover and it's a publicist's wet-dream. You get to show that your client is a) COMPLETELY STR8 and b) all liberal and sympathetic to you witty fag best friends in the corner.
I want a gay teen to walk into a movie theatre and see a gay kid fall in love and be happy. Because they have to know that it's possible. Hell, I want to see it, too.
