Hilary Duff's "That's So Gay" PSA Is So Gay
Prepare yourselves for the mind explosion.
This is a totally well-intentioned campaign with a good message, but also WHAT? For starters, those girls would not be calling those tops "gay." That's like making a global warming PSA in which a woman wearing a hemp blouse blows aerosol cans out of the window of her Prius and being like "Come on, guys, with the aerosol already!" If you really want to get this particular message out there with any effect, fire Hilary Duff and get Chuck Lidell to give it. And have the PSA play on one of the radio stations in Grand Theft Auto IV. I'm a genius. I should be running Sarah Palin's campaign for President.
Nevertheless, Videogum totally supports the spirit of this PSA, which is why we will no longer describe gay things as being "so gay." We will refer to them as being "so Hilary Duff." I just changed my name to LiZING McGuire. Sarah Palin for President!

Could those shirts be sent to Sarah Palin's church and be prayed for until the gayness was purged from them by god?
What if something really is, "So Gay?"- can I say it then? I have a friend whose the biggest queer on earth- can I call him soooo gay- cause he is- WAY GAY- JUST CALL HIM BIG GAY AL!

What a bunch of faggots.

Maybe I'm the lone gay voice here, but... it's nice to have ANYONE stand up for us for once. People throw the word FAG around so much that it gets a tad disheartening.
Score = 4
I like how Hilary Duff was standing behind those girls all that time, yet they didn't notice her because Hilary is a nobody that isn't famous anymore. Speaking of zings, Hilary totally zinged the girl wearing a skirt as a top. BUT SERIOUSLY A SKIRT AS A TOP, YIKES.
Score = 3
I say we replace "gay" with "Hilary Duff". Her top was SO Hilary Duff!

Do you people realize what the words "gay", "fag", and "faggot" really mean? lordofdefendsville, why are you calling the video a bunch of twigs? And last I knew, videos didn't have feelings... if it wants to be happy, then I guess it can be.
Gay: another word for being really happy.
Fag: Bundle of twigs.
