Richard Simmons Is Way Cooler Than You
Not Afraid To Show It

simmonstotallyrocks.jpg
You would not believe the amount of shit we get for being "mean" and/or "soulless". These critics, of course, don't even know the definition of "mean", because it could be a whole lot worse. Trust us. As for soulless - sure we kid about not having hearts and the such, but we really are quite caring. To prove it, allow us to take a second to say that we love Richard Simmons.

To some, the fitness guru ain't nothing but the most convenient punchline in history, a moving target for ridicule, but to us he's just a ball of fabulous faggotry. Look at this picture. Who could resist such blatant disregard for popular concepts of beauty, coolness and, most of all, heterosexuality? If that's not enough, consider the depth of his humanity: "...I'm a sensitive person who is supportive of gay people the same way I'm sensitive to grossly obese people and ugly people." Truly an angel and inspiration.

Richard Simmons, we think you're the bee's knees. We'd totally suck your dick, but, well, we're not that nice.

Let's see, he is actually very supportive of ugly and grossly obese people and makes a fair bit of money off some of them. If A+B=C, then he must be making some money of of the gays somewhere... oh yeah, through his doll collections!

Glad you like him. To me he's anything *but* fabulous... a third-rate self-helper who made his money duping the stupid and elderly with some really lame products that obviously did *him* no good whatsoever. I mean, is *that* a body to be proud of? Why would *anyone* look at him and think he s a good model for diet and fitness? He's relied on loose clothes to hide his body his entire career, and made a living out of being flamboyant rather than having any talent or worthwhile advice.

And he's probably asexual, since he's always denied actually being gay... If he was *actually* a closeted gay man, I doubt he'd be such an open flaming fool.

It's not the "mean and soulless" tone that gets me - it's the lack of basic proofreading skills in this blog that leads to daily mistakes in grammar, spelling and punctuation.

Most recent example: your doubly-flawed sentence should read "you're the bee's knees." Because "you're" means "you are." And because the knees belong to the bee.

Richard hasn't come out of the closet yet. Perhaps he's straight????? Regardless, I can go on living another day knowing that Richard approves of my lifestyle. I'll remember to tell my grossly overweight, ugly, gay brethran that Richard is TOTALLY supportive of them.
(P.S. Pardon me if I used any incorrect grammar.)

My god people are gullible. The dude isn't gay. He's a performer. He's paid to be the person you see on TV. He's about as real as pro wrestling. Come on people, it's TV. It's not real! You pay me a million a year and I'll bounce around on stage and be the biggest flamer on TV. Hell, I'd do it for 1/10 of that. This guy has been making serious bucks on TV acting fruity since I was a kid. He's gay and Clint Eastwood really was a cowboy in 1865.

I'd bet half the homophobes in this country would star in a gay porno flick as the guy who got butt-raped by 30 escaped convicts for as little as $5K. The other half would be the stunt double for $50. This guy has made millions without ever even dropping his pants. I salute the man! He stands for everything good in the world! Profit!
