My best friend and I suggested online that maybe this friend of ours stop using “gay” as an insult (this was around 2009 or so) and he and his girlfriend became adamantly defensive and mean. When they implied that my best friend was molesting his beloved dog just to be assholes, I just cut the cord and walked away. They were idiots anyway.
Fun fact: the girlfriend was, and is, a huge “do good” volunteer advocacy leader. So, you know, help each other out, but don’t get in the way of my homophobic slurs.

Some people respond poorly to criticism, especially when they don’t have the brain to identify they do something wrong.
So, so many people refuse to believe they’re even capable of being wrong.
You’ve just described a good chunk of my family.
And half the country. 😩
