2. To be fair, he was saying it of himself...
He was wearing some costume from The Tudors and he said that.

Still, not all that cool of him.

4. Yeah, I got that.
It wasn't funny. I've never really understood what is so funny about referring to something as "gay" to make it a negative.

That's all I'm saying.
