Poll: Should I pull the gay card on my college essay?

[Hoppip]

Alrightey. None of my actual college choices require an essay, but my English teacher wants us to write two just in case (and I'll likely send one of them anyway). I've already written my first one.

So.

Gay card.

I have it.

DO I WHIP IT OUT? HMM?

Please mark your choice in the poll, and if need be, explain your answer using the "reply" button below. I gleefully anticipate your answers and/or help and/or discussions. If you've used the gay card in one of yours, feel free to talk about it. If you have tips on using the gay card, I'd love to hear them. Adios. Amigos.

[listen up world]

I don't know about the gay card. Because I didn't use it. I used the gay Jew card. It's shinier.

That's how it should be.

I say, go for it. It gives you a perspective that the vast majority of the population doesn't have.

You've also neglected the apostrophe, capitalisation, and an end punctuation mark.

If this wasn't Sean's thread, I wouldn't correct the grammar...

That's correct.

Even that's not completely correct but A for effort.

Well, you certainly could use a semi-colon to fix it, but I don't see the need—it is just a four word comment on a poll thread. We might as well just unload everything in our grammatical arsenal: colons, hyphens, and whatever else we can dig out! Isn't that too far? Can't there be too much punctuation variation~ Oh& Dang it# I<ll shut up now* Night%

What... hath... I... done?! D:

I've turned thee all into monsters! D:
Just kidding—thee is a singular pronoun. ^_^

It's used here because both parts of the sentence can be sentences by themselves (they're independent clauses). You could also write it "No, don't. It's lame."

Now this is some deviation from the original topic.
