HATE NIGHT TV

WATCH: Jimmy Kimmel’s Homophobic Back-To-School Prank

It’s back-to-school time and parents are thrilled to get their kids out of the house and into the classroom where they belong. Some parents were perhaps a little too enthused, though, when they uploaded videos for Jimmy Kimmel Live’s YouTube challenge, “Hey Jimmy Kimmel, I Got My Kid a Horrible Back-to-School Outfit.”

Among the sequined tutus—which we find incredibly appropriate for school— burlap sacks and assorted fine threads was an “I’m So Gay I Shit Rainbows” T-shirt that debuted to the audience’s surprise and delight.

Ironically, the “shit” part of the slogan was blurred out for TV—too offensive, we guess! So what do you say about this “prank” Funny? Offensive? Just plain stupid?
