I know there are a few gay pinheads on these forums.
Check out this badass light up acrylic topper that someone here had made.
The guy who created this did not want to post it, but I'm way out of the closet.
(I'm not selling them, please don't PM me asking for one, thank you)

Why do you need to be gay to like that... I'm not gay and I like it..

Quoted from beelzeboob:Yzfguy has a t-shirt that looks like that.
I saw a guy at PAGG a couple of weeks ago wearing one.

Couldn't have been him. His wife has him on a 50-mile leash.
Quoted from bigehrl:someone please tell me what's going on.
Just Vid showing us his junk again... 
Quoted from Sonny_Jim:Came here to post my anger about a homophobic slur, left with a giggle. Good on ya vld1900
I saw no homophobic slur. Some believe that just because someone doesn't bow down and kiss their gay ass that they are homophobic. Maybe that are just sick or hearing about it. Maybe I'll start advertising that I am heterosexual.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Easy tiger. I have quite a few gay friends that love pinball. Who cares?
That is fine. I don't have a problem with it. Wile I don't have any gay friends my daughter has two and they are pretty cool people. Both of them however get sick and tired of people constantly telling the world that they are gay and thinking the world should kiss their ass. Whatever, just kind of making a point. BTW, that whatever it is is kind of cool and I guess if you do live that lifestyle you might want one.
Is there a push button switch setting allowing multi-color rainbow color changing lights? Seems like that would be a feature that some might like. Blue balls doesn't fit well.
I'm not going to reply to that. Sure they are people and everyone deserves a certain amount of respect. The rest has to be earned and one way to earn it is to be a decent human being. I like both those kids. I think I over reacted the the guys post. The point was the not every comment that doesn't glorify homosexuality is homophobic. Maybe they just get tired of hearing about it constantly. It's kind of like the gluten free people or the vegans. I can like you but I do not want to constantly hear that you are vegan or that I would feel a lot better if I went gluten free.
Love it. I would wear it and proudly use it as a tooper.
Thanks Vid!
I have friends who will also greatly enjoy this image!!
So Gryszzz,
Do you mean the not so gay topper artwork would show a nice shooter lane and also the flipper bat and balls?
Well I guess I'm gay then. Don't tell the wife. She's already pissed that I have three machines overflowing into the dining room.

Why suddenly start now?

The problem is that "gay" is frequently used as a denigrating term. It is the same issue as saying "...like a girl" in a negative way. I imagine that you are probably a straight, white, male so there probably aren't many terms that describe you that are sometimes used to imply inferiority. Many of these have become so ingrained that we don't even realize that we are putting down a huge group of people.
Obviously this topper is tongue-in-cheek, not denigrating.

...except...
Quoted from TRAMD:that you are...a straight, white, male
I'd prefer a slogan that says something more along the lines of, "Pinball is all about men playing with balls and shooter rods but is totally NOT gay 
"

I love discussing the changing nature of language. Around these parts(amish community), people still call people afflicted with Down's Syndrome "mongoloids". They never used that word negatively so it's use was never changed.
Same with using the terms colored or negro. I hear some of the older fellas say those terms.

No one else did either.....take it easy!
Gay, straight, sideways doesn't matter to me they are all more then welcomed to come play pinball with me anytime. Although while playing if my ass happens to get grabbed in the dark, I pray it was done by someone of my sexual preference lol.
Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:Certainly wasn't expecting this when i got up this morning.
All I can say is.....oh my!!
We are just thankful you still get up
Who cares on sexual orientation?
But from a design standpoint I would think two flippers and 4 balls is more accurate.
Now back to Star Wars speculation.

it's called ignorance.
