This is what happens when you give an aimless young gay man in Chicago access to the internet.

Reality Showdown

While at lunch with my boss this afternoon, the subject of television came up in our conversation. I use the term "our" loosely because it's really a one-sided conversation with him doing all the talking and me imagining what sex with Anderson Cooper would be like. When I was able to get a word in, I mentioned how I enjoyed that show "Who Wants to be a Superhero." I blogged about this a while back, so people know how much I was into comic books and superheroes. Read all about it here on the July 10 entry. I really want Fat Mama to win!

I was immediately chided for not being a proper queer for not watching the only gay reality show that matters, Project Runway. My boss is really into Project Runway, but I missed the first two episodes so I don't want to watch any of it until I see them. If I'd seen it from the beginning, then I'd be watching it. But I didn't, so I'm not. So there.

What the fuck was that comment he made about me not being a proper queer? If being a proper queer means trying to fit a size 34 ass into a pair of size 32 jeans and wearing a polo shirt with the collar flipped up while sporting a faux-hawk that doesn't look right on me because I'm a 47 year old queen who tans so much that even Donatella Versace would tell me that I'm going overboard, then I think I'll stick to being the odd gay out and watching my dinky superhero reality show.
