The Office Shows Us the Proper Way to Make a Gay Joke

Posted by Mike Conklin on Fri, Oct 16, 2009 at 10:11 AM

The best part of last night's episode of The Office (which was refreshingly free of the honeymooning Jim and Pam, by the way) involved Kevin trying to explain to Oscsar, who's gay, why they would have very different experiences were they to be put in jail. Someone should tell young hollywood types that this is how you write jokes about homosexuality—where the stupid person winds up looking stupid, and not like someone to be envied by a bunch of hateful frat boys.

I'm more of a Japanese animation, fan myself. I've been watching Samekikoto, a comedy-drama about high school girls who like other girls. It's snorty-stupid and fun with a really sympathetic heroine. And the jokes are...funny.
