My son told me something that is pretty sad last fall. He was a senior in high school. And it was senior week at the last football game of the season this coming Friday. So they had theme days all week. On senior citizen day he just dressed like he thinks a senior citizen dresses. He had on some khaki pants with the legs rolled up a little bit so you could see his tube socks. He had on the Elmer Fudd-style baseball cap from Canada. He had on the button-down plaid shirt. And then over that he had on his grandfather's jacket that he wears on a regular basis but that fit the outfit almost perfectly. And then he got a cane from the basement to round it out.
But he was telling me that last year and in years past they would have a gender swap theme day where guys would dress as girls and girls would dress as guys. But that because of the whole rising of the attention on the transgendered and homosexual and all of that they canceled the swap day because they didn't want to offend anyone that is transgendered.
Sad as it was it made for a good joke with them about it. I told him that it was probably also because it would be an unfair competition because somebody that didn't dress as the opposite sex would never be able to compete with somebody who does it all the time and has all the tricks down and all the tools and everything like that.
He laughed but I was glad to see that it was a pained laugh because of the weirdness of it.
Sodom and Gomorrah are starting to sound very familiar.
