Hallmark's new holiday sweater ornament uses a lyric from Deck the Halls.
Don, we now are fun apparel.
They have used the word fun to replace the word gay.
First of all... First of all, how many people were sitting around that table?
Second of all...
This is happening so much.
That is true.
It's like when Congress retroactively changed the name of the plane that dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan to the Enola Fund.
It's less offensive to gay people and way more offensive to Japanese people.
So why, why did Hallmark do that?
And if Nightline could drive home the context about gayness with a thumping techno beat, that would be appreciated.
They explained that back when it was first translated, the word gay had only one real meaning, and they didn't want to leave it open to, quote, misinterpretation.
So it's about misinterpretation.
They didn't want the confusion, you know?
They don't want people confusing the meaning of the sweater.
It's like what happened with last year's Hallmark holiday sweater ornament.
I want to suck your for Christmas.
Which, as you know, is just that beloved old English Christmas carol.
I believe it went something along the lines of, I want to suck your for Christmas.
I want, I want to suck it now.
