No jokes about the family tartan

[sigma7]

The American Family Association runs a site called OneNewsNow. I suppose it's your run-o-the-mill news aggregator site with one heretofore unremarkable quirk: an automated script that, for style purposes I guess, replaces the word "gay" with "homosexual." Which I don't necessarily see as an unreasonable decision. From a technical standpoint, though, it's not a good idea for such a context-insensitive filter -- particularly if you're world-record-breaking sprinter Tyson Gay. Then things get a little weird.

Bonus: From the story Wolves trade Mayo to Memphis for Love (which is pretty awesome in and of itself): "Memphis Grizzlies backers hit the hay hoping that Kevin Love would open things up for Rudy Homosexual in the frontcourt."
