Wiener) responds to the joke about the poor guy ***WHO DIDN'T WANT TO WIPE HIS ASS WITH A $10 BILL****: > >I cannot *believe* this homophobic "joke". What are we supposed to >make of this gay bathroom prostitution? I certainly fail to see any >humor, and find this propagating of hateful stereotypes extremely >offensive. > >Please, if Catholics must go on bashing gays etc etc etc...... Hey Matthew, this doesn't belong in net.jokes.d, it belongs in net.jokes!! Seriously though, I found the original joke very funny, and the word GAY didn't even enter my mind.

Did Matthew just forget the (:-)? Can anyone be that immature?) Ray Dunn.
