    Being 212 years old, I tend to regard these things as an attempt by "our youth" to discover something against which to rebel after most all of the options have been taken. It seems unless one opts for full-on gunplay, the only other option is gender-defying costume choices. It's so hard to rattle mom's and dad's cages when they already covered the same territory. Imagine the frustration of spending all that time taping down your breasts and stuffing a sock in your panties just to have your egg and sperm donors say, "Wow, Chelsea! You look like an awesome dude, Have a great time tonight tonguing some cheerleader's happy meal." #thekids

    sigh. Even though I gave up years ago trying to argue that MTVmo bands like Fall Out Boy have zero in common with the true emo that grew out of the hardcore scene of 80s, it still pains me to see them and Adam Lambert (are you effing kidding me?) mentioned as emo. I will now go and cry and be old I guess. Jesus that's just depressing. #thekids

    I went to high school in the 90's, at a school that enforced a strict dress code. Guess what? The kids who were gay were gay regardless, the skaters were skaters, and the jocks were jocks. Dress codes don't make or break someone's identity.

    We're talking about teenagers. Of course they're going to think that the biggest factor in gender identity is dress. These are the kids that buy skateboarding brand t-shirts because they want to identify with skateboarding culture. Sooner or later they're going to realize that wearing a t-shirt doesn't make you a better skateboarder. But for now, they're teenagers, and have a lot to learn. #thekids

    I'm suspicious of the claims of heterosexuality by the North Carolina horse-f*cker. Word around the stable is that he settled for vaginal, but really wanted to go anal. #andreapeyser

    Ok, so let me make sure I got this straight...

    Bigot: Someone who defends civil rights.

    Political Correctness: The belief that the delicate sensibilities of taxi drivers should be offended.

    Any cab driver would do the same if the Peys were were in the backseat hugging anything. Fortunately for all involved, it's pretty unlikely. #andreapeyser
