Using the word 'gay' to mean lame or cheesy or wimpy or whatever other
diss you can think of is so passe. (If we were still in the 80s, you
might say it's soooo "gay".)

As for the snowboarding vs. skiing argument, all you have to do is
watch any of the latest ski videos, and you'll quickly realize that
the sheer insanity of the tricks skiers are pulling these days easily
trumps anything a snowboard is doing. At the Huck Fests in Utah for
the last few years, the snowboarders have pulled in a weak audience.
But when the skiers are up, the crowds come out in droves-half of
which are snowboarders.

And for the love of God, please don't use such "gay" lingo
anymore. Join us in modernity, won't you?
