I am not a homophobe!!!

The Office

I curse something as “gay” or “homosexual” a lot. I don’t mean it in a malicious way, or derogatory to homosexuals in any way. It’s just a figure of speech, similar to the way Tiger Woods described his putting at the Masters this year as “spaz” like. You don’t mean anything by it; you just say it without thinking.

Today I described a system in work as “a homosexual system”. Normally this would not pass comment but today, the reaction was, “now Fred, you shouldn’t”.

Oh shit.

Grovelling apologies later, I think I’ve got away with it.

But still….
