Somehow, to my displeasure, we ended up watching Wild Hogs, the movie with Tim Allen and John Travolta. (NOT MY IDEA!) Total red-state, Blue Collar Comedy, low-brow type horse shit of a movie. It was pretty painful. Anyway, a running theme of the jokes, besides poop, is homosexuality -- effeminate men, creepy gay-acting guys, a gay fetish-y looking cop, the guys going skinny dipping together, sleeping in the same sleeping bag together after they lose the other one and holding one another, one guy forced to ride behind the other on the same bike and holding him as he does so -- all these "hilarious," awkward chances for the guys to reassert their manfulness and also disgust at anything reeking of "gay."
Don't watch the movie if you don't have to, but the obsessive gay jokes really are something to behold for all its crusty red state humor.
