It was early in the evening, the bar hadn&#8217;t really gotten started, and we just wanted some food.<\/p>\n<p>We could have sat in these sort of high stool-chairs, very close to blaring speakers near an empty dance floor.<\/p>\n<p>But that seemed uncomfortable and impractical, so I steered us to a booth. It was a big booth, but a booth all the same.<\/p>\n<p>My buddies practically revolted. Apparently, these guys don&#8217;t sit in a booth together. What if our legs touched or something?<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t realize it, but sitting on the same side of a booth as another guy is just one step short of anonymous homosexual release at a truck stop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOW:<\/strong><br \/>\nToday, a guy and I were talking about going to a movie. I mentioned the animated movie, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1049413\/\">Up<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Now, some people don&#8217;t want to see animated movies, so I was prepared for him to say no thanks. He didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>He said that he&#8217;d be happy to see an animated movie as part of a group of people, or with a girl. But he wouldn&#8217;t see it with just one other guy.<\/p>\n<p>As it happened, there were other people coming along, so he&#8217;s ok with it.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I obviously missed the whole class on &#8220;Everyday nonsexual things that you have to watch out for because apparently some people think that doing these things implies that you&#8217;re gay, and God knows you don&#8217;t want that or everything will explode.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are these people gay?
