Interesting you choose such an insult. Thought you had connections with
the ambulance service - which would fall apart without 'homos'.


I'm not having a go at homosexuals, I'm having a go at Homebase.


And you're doing that by...?

Sigh.

First of all - it's a joke.

Homebase have moved their product offering from bricks/timber/cement to
scatter cushions/cookware/table lamps.

Gay men are more likely to be interested in interior design and have a
greater appreciation of it than most straight men. Its also probably
true that gay men have better fashion sense than most straight men. A
stereotype I know, but probably accurate.

Having an interest and ability in interior design is a positive trait,
not a negative trait.

If I referred to Wickes as "White Van Man" Wickes, would you assume that
I was having a go at straight men - or Wickes product offering?
