Can’t they just hire gay people in the first place? Can’t turn gay if you’re already gay.

Or maybe working hard could make you super gay… or straight? I don’t know how this works.

I think it's a bit like the horseshoe theory in politics where the far left and far right agree on some of the same things.

So once you're super gay, you get to fuck super straight guys. That would explain why all these anti-gay politicians keep getting caught banging dudes in airport bathrooms.

It all makes sense now. When you max out your straightness value, but keep on pushing, you cause an integer overflow. That’s a sneaky way to end up being super gay.

Exactly! It's like Ghandi in Civilization.

LOL. What a classic move. The fastest way to world peace is to invade every nation and murder everyone.
