Who You Callin' Yag?

Merele Rothwell of Bakersfield has come up with a novel idea. He wants to take the word “gay” back from the homosexuals. He’s unhappy with how a word which originally meant happy, joyful, etc has been sullied by the GAY! community. In a letter to the Californian Rothwell suggests that we follow suit and instead refer to them as “yags.” In support of his idea, Rothwell reasons that “Yags is easy to remember and pronounce too." Ya(gs) just can’t argue with that kind of logic.

Then again, “ass” is easier to remember and pronounce than Rothwell.
