There are assholes in New Jersey!
Yes. I know it's hard to believe. Try to control your emotions. Sadness, anger, disappointment, confusion. You run the whole gamut. But you're going to have to accept the fact that yes indeed, there are assholes in New Jersey. How did they get there? I don't know. But they're there. ABC news did some bang up journalism to expose these assholes for the assholes they really are. But guess what, there's some decent people in New Jersey as well. Who knew?
Good people and bad people in the same state.
Cats and dogs living together!
Mass hysteria!
First point, any person with half a brain would realize that mo's like this wouldn't be caught dead in a bar like that. But even more so mo's like that wouldn't be caught dead in New Jersey. That's why the term 'bridge & tunnel' exists because when New York City is right across the river, why on Earth would you ever decide, hey, let's stay in this cesspool of Jersey and drink our Cosmo's at the sports bar just down the street?
Second point, could they have picked any bigger stereotypes? Hey ABC news, we don't all act like that. And they told them to act like themselves? I think anybody can realize that they're over doing it. That or they are the gayest things ever. And they both have vests on? Is that the new gay trend? Because I refuse to wear one. This fad can past me right on by.
ABC wants to sell this as a 'real' situation but it's not when it seems like half the people in there are actors. And it's really not reality when you have someone in there to fan the flames and set up your situation. To egg people on. Maybe the guy's just a massive follower and will agree with anything the guy says. He could be a Scientologist for christ sakes. They'll say anything to get you to join.
Look, I understand the point that ABC is trying to make. I just think it's kind of an obvious point. And they're selling it as if gay guys expressing their love for one another as everybody else is allowed to in public is controversial. Haven't we gotten past this point yet? And using a largely manufactured setting isn't really getting it. That's why I can't wait for the Bruno movie. You can make your point while making us laugh and not feel the need to get out your giant wagging finger. You know, expose assholes for the assholes they are. Not then going and interviewing the asshole about why he was such an asshole even though he denies ever being an asshole. Really, the asshole denied ever being an asshole. Go figure. Why that's something only an asshole would do! Then we need to go to talk to a therapist or something about why the asshole felt the need to lie about being an asshole and what was really going on in the assholes mind.
And the woman who says that tolerance is now an American value. Really? All of the sudden? Just not the tolerance to get married. Or adopt children. Or have other basic rights. Hey ABC, why don't you try this again but in a redneck bar in Alabama. Or Utah. Or even just about any small town here in Oregon. And you won't even have to hire an actor to egg everybody on. Then we'll see just what a tolerant world is. But don't try it in Wyoming, cause then they'll fucking kill you.
