Ok well since you insist, lets see here.
I said something about having a parade to celebrate a right wingers choice to refrain from dating during the latter teen years, as a good and responsible choice.


Lord love a duck!

No, that's not how it happened. Neo started off with: "My son does not even date....."

You followed with: "I doubt anyone is giving a parade to celebrate."

I questioned why someone would hold a parade for his son. Maybe Neo and Mrs. Neo would show him their pride by treating him and a few of his buddies to a backyard BBQ or a weekend at the beach, but why a parade? When I think parade, I think of flags and high school bands and the VFW marching down main street followed by a bunch of fire trucks.

It was only after I had formed that mental picture that you thoroughly confused me by introducing left wingers and right wingers. I think of right wingers more than left when I think of parades since conspicuous patriotism with flags is more associated with the right.

I never for a moment thought of gay pride parades. So if you're going to make a crack about gays to someone who isn't predisposed to have gays on the brain, you'll have to either be more direct about it or expect me not to make the inference.
