In high school my pencil broke while I was writing something in my notebook for a school musical. I was sitting next to the other lead who had recently come out as gay. This was kinda a new thing (it was 2007). Anyways My pencil tip snapped off and I just blurted "Aww gay!" directed at my pencil of course. I sheepishly looked up at him after realizing what I did. He looked at me with a quizzical look and asked "What?"
"Sorry, I forgot you just came out and I called my-"
"I heard you. Did your pencil break?"
"Yeah"
"Well, that is gay. I hate when my pencil breaks too lol"
I guess he was pretty understanding and knew what I really meant was "dumb" or something
