Catch 22 situation
Have a girlfriend and get all those annoying talks about getting priorities straight from parents…
Don’t have one and parents suspect you are gay.
Well I think all of us, gay and straight, would feel awkward if our parents believed we were something other than we were, n’est-pas? not really a question of homophobia, is it?
in this case,i believe what he should feel is glad to hav a mother who cares n supportive for him.. the proof is his mom always had a hunch abt him,indicating his mom was always paying attention to him.. to be a homophobe is a different story though..
I don’t think that’s what they’re saying though…from what I gather they’re just saying that the guy sounds a BIT (note, a BIT) like he’s putting gay and heroin use/pedophilia in the same “category”. Which he probably isn’t.
I personally would have to agree he’s just shocked though. I had an opposite situation kinda. Because I talked to people of the opposite sex all the time my mom thought I was straight, so when they asked if I was dating one of my friends I was startled.
Maybe his mum knew it was just auto correct & was playing along? As the mum of 4 sons it wouldn’t matter either way to me as long as they were good & kind.
I don’t think the mom is disappointed…her reply “oh i see” is the exact moment where she notices that she just shoved her foot waaaay deep in her mouth lol
People, calm down; it’s a joke. And a hilarious one at that. It’s pure foot-in-mouth comedy! If I sent that to my mother and I weren’t gay (which I am, but that’s neither here nor there!), and she replied like THAT?! Maybe our family just has a keener sense of humour…?!
well i once tried to type ‘cunt’ and iphone thought i mean ‘cynthia’ (god knows why – i don’t know any cynthias). On the plus-side however, me and my friends now use the code word ‘cynthia’ whenever we want to call people ‘cunt.’ it’s hilarious.
Actually, you’re wrong. It would be very easy for this to change from the intended “clinic” to “closet”.
The person typed in the C and the L and then, when going to type in the I, he apparently hit the O which is RIGHT NEXT to the I.
What bothers me about this or any other site I go to that is for HUMOR, why the hell does everyone have to fricken try to declare it’s fake. Seriously. Just enjoy the damn thing.
What a great mom!! My mom straight up asked me if my friend was my boy friend, me being partly shocked that she thought I was gay and partly shocked that she actually thought I was boy friends with HIM, said no. 5 minutes down the road I told her I was bi. A week later I came out as gay.

Sigh
Glad I’m asexual.
That’s so Morrissey of you!
LMAO, so Morrissey of you. That was the best reply ever.
And I was totally listening to Morrissey when I read this…. Hrrrmmmmm..
Like Spongebob!
I want mom like that ;(
Awww……RUS.
You want a mom who thinks you’re gay?
You did not get it? He IS but his mother is not supportive… -_-”
Oh. Long day at work.
But damn…. funny.
As time goes on there will be more mom’s like that.
We’re definitely getting there
Unfortunately.
Slowly.
I wish it were this easy for me as well
Awww
My country sucks…
Yea, Rus. Me, too.
How the next few lines could go downhill from here:
Mom: “No, no Matthew, I don’t think you’re gay, just……effeminate.”
FTW.
Yep, there’s really no good way to continue . . . LOL
Very understanding mother, but now I believe the kid in question is going to have some self image issues. Autocorrect damages egos again!
Wow! Too funny!
“Holy Shiite” indeed.
Being a muslim, I can’t believe I missed that. XD
Lol-I thought the cussing would have offended you
It’s not like he AIMED to offend us. (I’m Muslim too)
Speaking of which, wherever did MM go, anyway? Blocked?
God I hope so
I think he meant it so he wouldn’t offend his Mom buy saying SHIT… Not to offend anyone.
The kid seems like he’s the homophobe of the family.
Or else he’s just dumbfounded that she always had a hunch.
But he hid it so well, what with all the posters of football and soccer players on his wall…
Well I think all of us, gay and straight, would feel awkward if our parents believed we were something other than we were, n’est-pas? not really a question of homophobia, is it?
Him being upset that his family thinks he is gay makes him a homophobe?
So you’d be totally okay with someone telling you they always suspected you did heroin or watched kiddie porn? I don’t think so.
Right, because being gay is the equivalent of doing heroin or watching kiddie porn.
Wtf dude? Cannot…even…comprehend…thinking process.
being gay: totally not the same as being on heroin or watching kiddie porn. you’re the one who sounds like the homophobe here.
(just fyi I agree with classic steve)
Officially the most idiotic post I’ve seen on this site. Congrats.
Sssoo a heterosexual male should feel complimented when thought of as being gay, and anything less makes them a homophobe? Wow!
in this case,i believe what he should feel is glad to hav a mother who cares n supportive for him.. the proof is his mom always had a hunch abt him,indicating his mom was always paying attention to him.. to be a homophobe is a different story though..

Dont mean to be rude but….text seems unreal….plus look at the time, who comes out of a clinic at 12.30am…..hmm unless its the ER?!
DON’T MEAN TO BE RUDE, BUT…….
That’s the time the screencap was taken. Not the time the text was sent.
Uh… a second shift clinic worker? People work.
Toushay….hadnt thought of that….what an awkward sitation that must have caused lol…
Toushay? lol
Sounds delicious
wonder how their christmas went
GO MOM!
Good god, this is awkward
The mis-timing there is a bit awkward, but those are some amazing parents.
Is it just me, or does Mom seem disappoint?
Nope not only you daawww poor Mom!
she had a hunch and everything now shes all disappointed
i believe so.. maybe she had always wanted a gay family members~
Or she’s afraid of the potential offspring of her son. Maybe he’s a wee bit insane?
Of course, because all homosexuals are sterile.
Maybe his mum knew it was just auto correct & was playing along? As the mum of 4 sons it wouldn’t matter either way to me as long as they were good & kind.
This seems contrived.
100%
Your mom seems contrived.
agree
That’s what she said.
That mom rocks
.
Yeah! wish all mums were like that!
Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
I love lamp.
omg hilarious. well-done.
I don’t think the mom is disappointed…her reply “oh i see” is the exact moment where she notices that she just shoved her foot waaaay deep in her mouth lol
Wow! There seem to be a lot of homos posting here, wishing their mother was more supportive of them, lol
yeah, there’s a lot of douchebags, too. u mad?
Even if you were the only homophobe on here, that would be too many.
People, calm down; it’s a joke. And a hilarious one at that. It’s pure foot-in-mouth comedy! If I sent that to my mother and I weren’t gay (which I am, but that’s neither here nor there!), and she replied like THAT?! Maybe our family just has a keener sense of humour…?!
I kind of doubt the authenticity too… I mean typing “clinic” is a long way away on the keyboard from “closet.”
Wouldn’t that be a strange autocorrect?
well i once tried to type ‘cunt’ and iphone thought i mean ‘cynthia’ (god knows why – i don’t know any cynthias). On the plus-side however, me and my friends now use the code word ‘cynthia’ whenever we want to call people ‘cunt.’ it’s hilarious.
that is awesome, I almost want to adopt this code word too
Actually, you’re wrong. It would be very easy for this to change from the intended “clinic” to “closet”.

Is it just me or is anyone else getting the feeling of nails on a blackboard at “i’m a gay”
It says “I am gay,” silly
Oh god I can just feel the awkwardness at the dinner table later LOL.
“homophobe” is being slung out all over the place on this post. kind of over-the-top.
This thread is so long, but really enjoyed it as much a the screen shot. WOW! Truly amazing of the humor here.
funny as fuck!@#!@#$!#@$! woulda been better if it was true :/
That’s one way to see if your parents will get upset. If they do, blame it on auto-correct.
If i have a gay kid, i’m sooo throwing a party filled with rainbows and tinsel ^-^
ouch, now that was awkward
If so many mama’s hate gay kids, why do they keep giving birth to them ?
What a great mom!! My mom straight up asked me if my friend was my boy friend, me being partly shocked that she thought I was gay and partly shocked that she actually thought I was boy friends with HIM, said no. 5 minutes down the road I told her I was bi. A week later I came out as gay.
