"No Homo"
This is freaking great.
See, now this is how to speak intelligently about popular culture--and in a morally uplifting way, no less. All the shrill, dumb-ass pomobabble in the world isn't worth 30 seconds of this guy's clear, reasonable commentary on the "no homo" phenomenon. He's particularly good when he's discussing how people get sucked into saying it purely because of its comedic value. He's not an off-putting scold, and he's just plain right about it. He's also careful to note that uttering the phrase is not a huge moral crime, and, I think, particularly effective when he acknowledges the tug of his his own urge to say it for comedic effect at the end of his video.
