Welcome to the LGBT Kos and Friends
Sunday afternoon open thread!
Brought to you this week by cooper888.
Please note: This is designed to be a safe space to discuss LGBT issues, so please, keep your piefights where they belong, which is not here. That applies to the meta food fight of the day, the Obama Wars, what have you. It's not that we don't like debate or that we don't have opinions on those issues. There are places for these debates and they are not here at LGBT Kos. We are more interested in the diversity of our life experiences, our cultures, and our dreams of a better tomorrow. We believe that we can create a space to discuss these differences without engaging in the political debates that have often divided our community. If you can't abide by this rule, you'll be asked to leave.
Welcome to the LGBT Kos open thread...
...a place to let our hair down and talk about whatever is on our minds, gossip, music, books, movies, you name it! Everyone is welcome from top to bottom (grin) so drop a comment and let us know what's going on.
This week, your membership card. Have you ever had your's taken away?
So there I was minding my own business, riding my bike home and waiting for the number 35 bus in the Castro to take me and my bike home, up that big ass hill to Diamond Heights. (huh, sounds like Four Non Blonds song)
So I'm waiting at the stop, leaning on the cross bar of my bike and this guy (yes a cute guy) walks by, stops, turns around (I'm thinking okay, here we go!) and says to me
Hey, your rainbow flag on your bike is upside down, we're gonna have to take away your card!
Well, I was just wrecked! I mean devastated! How could I have been so unknowing? Turns out he was right! I had the purple stripe at the top vs. the red. I ripped that sticker off my bike, bought a new one & proudly mounted it (easy) right side up. Every time I waited at that stop I would look for the guy to point out my correction but I never saw him again... sigh.
So do you have your card? Take this short quiz (click card) and you can get your very own printable card for carrying! How did I do? I only got a 72%, mostly because of my lack of the Broadway musical and shoes gay genes.
So what else is going on today? This is an open thread so share whatever your heart desires, pimp diaries, etc.. it's all good!
