Resident Philebrity Homo Defends Ann Coulter As The Gay Man’s Lawn Jockey; Hilarity Ensues
On one hand, we’re glad: A Philebrity anniversary simply would not be one without some mention of our friend Ryan Creed, whom we love and adore and publish from time to time. But on the other, we are troubled. We just read Ryan’s post on Jezebel about the inevitable elevation of Ann Coulter to gay icon status and how this is actually quite grand, and Ryan, we’re not fucking around: We’re still cringing. And as you are well aware, so are the folks in the comment section over there. Yes, your gambit that no person could ever take Coulter seriously and thus, she can be treated as an object of high camp, kind of works. We get it. BUT. There’s something dangerous about this in the same way that, say, listening to a Skrewdriver record “just because you like the tunes” would be. On the other hand, we’re not much for the concept of thought crimes around here. But really, Ryan: Smarten up. It’s great that Coulter’s a faghag but fess: Faghags are only faghags because on some level, they all believe your love of penis is wrong and that someday, they’ll be the miracle worker who could make you see the err of your gay ways. They don’t love you ho’s. At least not the kind of love you deserve — you know, the kind with a cock on it.

For what it’s worth, I’m from Nowhere, Ohio, and both my parents are conservative Republicans who condemn gay marriage…so maybe that post just reflects my oedipal complex.

Ryan, don’t let these liberal naysayers impede your innate self loathing.
I personally can’t wait for your dispatch on cocktails with Fred Phelps.
I understand he’s pretty fierce!

Way to work in the reference to Skrewdriver.
