Just culled this from a collection of TV comic memorabilia, dating back to 1951, which is going under the hammer in the UK - estimates place the collection raising in excess of £1,000.00 - although the comedy factor of some of the thoroughly non-PC pieces is priceless.

The word may be changing yet again. I caught a Simpsons episode where one of Bart's friends teases him by saying "Bart's got a girlfriend. How Gay."

ReplyDelete"how gay" has become something of a casually playful insult traded between mates - at least those below, say, 35?
