Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts
-
/c/Memes@lemmy.world - General memes

I was there too, it definitely wasn't
"Wanna know how I know you're gay?" And "gayyyyy!" from Community were like late 2000s
Guess I had a better friend group.
Guess your friend group lived under a rock lol
Or just location differences, but was absolutely a normalized thing to say when I grew up. Didn't mean homosexual or anything, just anything that sucked was "gay"
"The 40 Year Old Virgin" came out in 2005 and one of the most memorable scenes in my opinion is two guys (Paul Rudd and somebody else) playing video games making gay jokes. "Do you know how I know you're gay? You like Coldplay."
If Hollywood was still doing it in the mid-00's then you can bet it was still popular in highschools across the USA.
Friend group? Look at this guy. We used to hang around with people just because they lived in the same area.
