George Takei: Yes, I'm gay and proud of it!

isthisnickcool: I see. And why is this important?

George Takei: Why, because I'm gay!

isthisnickcool: Hey, I heard you the first time. Roughly 2%-3% of the population may be queer. So, again, why is this important?

George Takei: Because, you right wing hetro, I'm famous and I'm gay!

isthisnickcool: What does that mean to me?

George Takei: I was on Star Trek you idiot! And I'm gay!

isthisnickcool: Yea, you see I don't care and I don't know anyone that does. Except for maybe the queers down in the Houston Montrose area or clusters of queers in other parts of the country. Or the gays in the media that are responsible for making sure that today everyone knows that some has been actor that likes to wash his mouth out with fecal matter is "gay". That is what you guys do, right? Have anal sex then oral sex? Or is it the other way around?

George Takei: But, but but I have a partner, and we love each other and flowers and hugging and kisses and happy and we are normal just like everyone else.

isthisnickcool: Dude, you let other men stick their thing up your backside and you do the same and then you basically eat poop. Does that seem sensible?

Media guy with queer activist group(off camera): What is this? You can't ask those kinds of questions! This is a happy time because he's come out and flowers and hugging and kisses and we are normal like everyone else!

isthisnickcool: Oh, so the eating poop thing is not a question we should ask about? You guys push the queer agenda in the media and in schools. So you want people to just concentrate on the "flowers and hugging, yadda, yadda, yadda" part? What about aids? Can I ask Sulu here about that? Or if he can remember all the men he has had what you call "sex" with?

Media guy with queer activist group(off camera): Uh, no! You can't ask about that! We have been working for over 30 years to get people to not ask about that! You can't ask about that! You bastard! Kids will think that being gay means you eat poop and can die from aids. How the hell can we get some young tail if they start thinking about that?

George Takei: Hey! Young tail is good! Wait! I meant "flowers and hugging and kisses and we are normal like everyone else!"

isthisnickcool: Sure you are. Sure you are. Hey Sulu, you better get that sore looked at........

Sulu- Bones can you help me?

Bones - Get out of here. You have penis on your breath and your stinking up the place.

I was always curious as to why Sulu was the only crew member upon whom Spock refused to perform a Vulcan mind meld.
It also explains why Kirk was the only crew member permitted to refer to the Doctor as, "Bones"; following that unfortunate misunderstanding with Sulu that occurred on Rigel IV.

Star Trek fans have known this for years. He shows up at conventions with his "partner."

BTW, George Takei may be gay, but Hikaru Sulu is evidently not. The character is married and has a daughter in a later movie.

No, gerbils were known to be used by some in the gay community. The practice was/is called "gerbilling".

I will leave you to determine what orifice they push them into and why that means some need an emergency room to remove them.
