I like the understated way Molly Willow put it in a Super Bowl-ad roundup in the Columbus Dispatch: "I'm ready for homophobia not to be funny anymore."

Aaagh I so agree. It's just like this time I wrote a bar review of Henrietta's for a Bar and Lounge magazine in New York. After talking about what a wonderful bar it was, their copywriter added in, "It's a great place-- if you're into that kind of thing!"

Dude! WTF! I didn't even see it until after it was published. Way to make it look like, "I'm hip, i'm with it, i'm not beyond a little funny homophobia!"

Or maybe i'm just reading into it too much.
