Gay just means homosexual. Queer is used as a pejorative synonym for gay by homophobes. But some actual gay people use it as a political statement. Its a bit more confrontational as a word than gay. Some gay people also use the word to "take it back". There's also Gender-Queer which is the "fuck you, none of the above" answer to gender

My guess would be from a Fedde Le Grande music video. Maybe "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit". - Comment on Clown Protest (2012-01-16 23:55:37)
That is most likely CIRCA - The Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army - or one of its non-UK offshoots http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clandestine_Insurgent_Rebel_Clown_Army - Comment on explaining gay marriage part 2 (2012-01-01 17:36:04)
Dude, it's not like they haven't been giving very specific information about what it will take to make them shut the fuck up. - Comment on Piracy is not theft (2011-12-25 09:16:34)
Under UK law theft is defined like this "A person is guilty of theft, if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it;". Please note the "permanently depriving the other of it". Media piracy is more like fraud than theft as you are making a non approved copy. But fraud doesn't have an emotional response that gets votes. - Comment on Trailer for an ‘Angry Birds’ Film (2011-12-10 00:49:30)

Bullshit. The European Parliament Scientific and Technological Options Assessment say " The effects of pepper spray are far more severe, including temporary blindness which lasts from 15–30 minutes, a burning sensation of the skin which lasts from 45 to 60 minutes, upper body spasms which force a person to bend forward and uncontrollable coughing making it difficult to breathe or speak for between 3 to 15 minutes." Also, where a subject is asthmatic, it can cause death. - Comment on Protecting & Serving (2011-11-22 01:00:14)
These aren't real police. They're campus cops. Which means they are just paid thugs with licences, not upholders of the law. Pepper spray is meant to be used as an alternative to deadly force. Not as a lazy way to do your job. Its almost like someone is trying to provike a violent reaction from the protestors so they can justify a lethal response. :( - Comment on bronies (2011-11-08 00:08:07)
Because it annoys you. At first we did it because it was fun in its own right. But when the haters got on board we started doing it more just to fuck with you - Comment on Female Judge (2011-10-31 22:39:12)

They make money off selling ads to you based on your information. Sure you can opt out (or run Adblock) but most people don't. And that's enough for them - Comment on Yum (2011-10-14 19:33:46)
