				Could this be the end of "That's So Gay"?
			 
			The Ad Council, the folks who brought us such memorable expressions as "A mind is a terrible thing to waste", "Friends don’t let friends drive drunk", and "Only you can prevent forest fires" has just rolled out a new campaign. This one hopes to put an end to the expression "That's so gay" when used to describe something that's bad or undesirable. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
			
		
		
		
		
	
	While I know many LoTters use this invective, including some of The Gay ones, I despise its use I applaud the Ad Council for their efforts. I don't know how effective it will be, but it's sure nice to see some folks taking a stand against it. http://thinkb4youspeak.com/ has copies of their TV spots. Do you think the "kids" will respond well to Hillary Duff, Wanda Sykes, and the woman in the third spot whose face I didn't recognize?  |
