The Horror of Mama Mia!

[customersruinmylife]

A friend of mine is a manager of a small computer game store near the pub. The store also sells a variety of blu-rays and dvds. I was on my way to work, when I decided to pop in and have a chat with my friend. He was working in the store completely on his own, and there was only me in there.

Friend: Oh God, customersruinmylife, look what we got in stock today.

It was a limited edition of Mama Mia, and when you pressed the DVD case, it sang the title song. I laughed.

Me: I bet you're looking forward to the customers playing with that all day!
Friend: God, don't remind me.

He pressed the button again and we laughed. All of a sudden, a 16 year old boy appeared at the counter, and had the most offensive look on his face.

SC: Ew! You guys like Mama Mia?!?! You fucking pair of fags!!
Me/Friend:
SC: *as sweet as pie* Do you stock used Xbox 360 games?
Friend: What?! Get the fuck out!
SC: Huh?
Friend: I'm not helping you! Get out!
SC: Fine! I don't want to buy anything from a gay who likes Mama Mia anyway!

He stormed out.

Y'know, one of the things I am most afraid of is being the kind of person who thinks watching certain movies, or listening to certain music, or having certain other tastes, makes you gay.

Wow, that guy was having a sucky day and decided to try and infect you with his suckiness!

I worked with a guy who used to kick people out of the McD's we worked at because they were gay. He'd get really mad that they were in there, and would almost actually physically kick them out.

I was teasing him one day and made a comment that it was his latent homosexuality coming thru, and he was mad at them for being gay and reminding him of what he'd been trying to ignore. (ok, I was taking psychology classes in college at the time)

He just looked at me really strangely, and the few employees around me that heard my comment kind of giggled.

Few months (or maybe a year?) later, he went out of town for several months to go to this school that McD's has for managers. When he came back, he was suddenly flamingly gay. Like, dressing up in woman's clothing, heels, makeup...he'd wear eye shadow to work and mascara. He shacked up with another one of the male managers at the store.

I actually wasnt all that surprised by it. I was surprised by the woman's clothes (and the fact that he really looked good in them...he showed me pictures) but I was one of the few people that worked with him that wasnt all that surprised by the change.

I wouldnt be surprised if the SC kid in the original post is marching in a Pride parade in a few years.

I hate that, why must they look prettier than me?

As for the kid it could be true but these days 'gay' apparently means anything you don't like if you're a teenage boy so who knows?

I wonder what the SC would have thought of To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar and The Birdcage? Both great and funny movies.

[Broomjockey]

I've always wanted to see "To Wong Foo." Also "Pricilla, Queen of the Desert." Basically, any movie with a wacky name.

As for "oh noes teh gheyzorz" jackasses, whatcha wanna bet they regularly watch large sweaty men passing their balls around (aka football?)

Haha.

I can't actually stand Mama Mia. I watched it all the way through with friends, and it just reminded me of the drunken old hens that would come into the pub, screech and annoy the hell out of me!

Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is a good movie. I especially love seeing Hugo Weaving in drag.

AND Terence Stamp as the MTF lady. Holy cow.

[zzapp the witch]

Dude, my uncle is an ex-Marine, and always scared the crap out of me my entire life.

I just found out his favorite movie is Chicago and he's obsessed with Dancing with the Stars.

And he STILL scares me. XD

(He also likes kitty cats.)
