I know gay and fag mean happy and cigarette, but didn't know that queer was used to mean unusual (like I know it can be defined as that, but didn't think anyone used it like that.)
There may be a historical ink between the two meanings.
The song "Star of the County Down", as sung by The High Kings, uses "queer" to mean "unusual". Incidently, I find that to be the best arrange of this classic Irish tune - very melodious.
