So Chris Culliver is a homophobic piece of shit for his anti-gay remarks, but Isaac Sopoaga and Ahmad Brooks are not only homophobic pieces of shit, they are also painfully stupid.

Denying their participation in an It Gets Better video proves that they've been tackled a few too many times. Sopoaga is so fucking dumb he's telling USA Today, "I never went" to the filming "and now someone is using my name."

Oh, you poor idiot.

"I didn't make any video," Brooks also declared. Then, when he was shown the clip, he said, "Oh, that. It was an anti-bullying video, not a gay [rights] video."

Even though in the video the team declares, "The San Francisco 49ers are proud to join itgetsbetter.org to let all LGBT teens know that it gets better."

Did they not listen to the words coming out of their own mouths? Did they not bother to actually go to itgetsbetter.org before lending their voices to the project?

Either way, these are obviously very simple men who have no self-awareness, no empathy and no self-respect. They supported a worthy cause, but instead of doing good, they've made fools of themselves and insulted all the victims of bullying they could've helped. 

They obviously don't realize that people look up to them and listen to what they say. They let their fans know that being gay is nothing to be afraid of, and by doing so they gave confidence to so many who are struggling or misguided. But now they've taken away that empowerment and replaced it with shame.

I'm glad Dan Savage has removed their video from the It Gets Better campaign. They are not worthy of the cause. 

I don't give a shit about the Super Bowl this year, because duh, Madonna isn't performing, but I hope their bad karma kicks the 49ers in the ass on Sunday! 

Tricia Macke, a Fox news anchor for the Cincinnati division WXIX-TV, has been suspended after a homophobic post on her Facebook page directed at lesbian Rachel Maddow, who is host of MSNBC's highest-rated program, The Rachel Maddow Show.

Macke wrote that Maddow is "such an angry young man." When some comments called her out for being discriminatory, Macke poured salt in the wound by responding, "I am sorry. I should have said antagonistic."  

Of course, after being suspended and taken off the air for two days, Macke is much more apologetic. In an attempt to do the right thing keep her job, she released an apology:

I recently posted comments on my personal Facebook page regarding cable news anchor Rachel Maddow which were insensitive and inappropriate. I apologize to Ms. Maddow and any others who may have been offended by my comments, as they do not reflect my firm beliefs in individual and equal rights, and they certainly do not represent the opinions or position of my employer WXIX-TV. 

You know, I'd let Tricia slide for being a childish bitch because she is a news anchor on Fox, after all, but it's the way she responded to the backlash on her Facebook page (before Fox's PR team made her respond their way) that shows her true colours. As she said in one of the comments, "I knew what I was saying" and obviously didn't give a shit if it was bigoted. 

A group of more than 20 students attending Celina High School in Celina, Ohio, were forced to remove their pro-gay T-shirts and were threatened with suspension. The T-shirts were handmade and featured a rainbow with the words "I support" and "Express yourself."

The group decided to wear the shirts in supportive solidarity of two schoolmates who were previously forced to remove their shirts, which said "Lesbian 1" and "Lesbian 2."

The school's superintendent, Jesse Steiner, tells US News that the students would be told to remove the shirts only if they were "disruptive" and causing "undue attention to themselves." But some students are calling bullshit on Steiner's explanation, saying that students who wear other political shirts, like pro-Obama or pro-Romney tees, face no repercussions. Members of the school's pro-life club, Students for Life, are not only allowed, but encouraged, to wear T-shirts with fetuses on them!

So to summarize: rainbows no, embryos yes . . . 

No word if Double Standards 101 is before or after Calculus on Celina High's timetable. 

The hate-crime laws in North Carolina do not cover sexual orientation, so even if the attackers of a gay couple from Asheville are arrested, they can be charged only with assault, despite claims by the victims that the crime was anti-gay motivated. 

Dustin Martin and Mark Little were leaving Scandals, a bar in Asheville, when, they claim, they were followed by a vehicle of girls who tauntingly called them "faggots" 15 to 20 times. When Martin told them to fuck off, a guy, who the couple hadn't seen inside the car, jumped out and attacked them. Martin was beaten first, getting hit in the head and collarbone. When Little tried to protect him, he was punched in the face. They were left bloodied and bruised but with no major injuries.

I don't do good deeds very often because they always backfire. Or, well, the only good deed I ever did backfired. It was in the 10th grade. There was this weird girl who would sit in the hallway reading books and crying. She was very peculiar, and because I love books (unlike my stoner friends, I didn't just use books to role joints on), I thought she was kind of fabulous. In a she-should-probably-be-locked-up kind of way.

My friends would always make jokes about her. Never to her face, although I'm sure some people did. I mean, she just sat there all the time in all her grease-stained horse-shirt glory, with stringy hair, bad skin and glasses, CRYING while reading, like, The Vampire Diaries or some shit. 

Anyway, long story short, I decided I was going to get some good karma and bring the girl a book. Just so that she would know she wasn't alone. Book nerds unite! I brought her my copy of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, because it was one of my favourite books, and I thought she might be able to, oh, I don't know, identify. I went up to her and said, "Hey, I've seen you reading a lot, and I thought maybe if you wanted a book, you might like this one." I held it in front of her, but when she looked up from the book she was reading, it was just to give me a dirty look. Then she looked back at the page and started muttering something inaudible under her breath. I was totally uncomfortable, so I just sort of put the book next to her and walked away. Unfortunately, I don't think Stephen Chbosky does it for her. She didn't break down crying or anything, which you might expect because it was kind of her thing. But her face turned various shades of purple, and she huffed so much a little snot shot out of her nose.

Then she threw the book at my back.

So, my point is, I blame that bitch for making me a cold-hearted cunt . . .

Luckily, not all good deeds are so unsuccessful -- take mechanic stud Richard Henegar, who, after finding out about Radford University student Jordan Addison's bullying (and its effect on his car) stepped in to make a really shitty experience totally beautiful. 

Addison's car was keyed with the words "fag" and "die." His tires were slashed, and his car was smashed with a baseball bat. This all occurred while he was away during spring break, visiting his aunt and uncle -- who, by the way, came out of retirement to help pay for his education. 

After finding out about the vandalism, Henegar contacted Addison and told him to bring his car to his mechanic shop. Addison had no idea that Henegar and his team were going to put $10,000 worth of repairs into the car, including a new sound system, tinted windows and a fresh paint job.

The heroic duo united on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, helping restore faith in humanity everywhere:

PS: If you're wondering, the weird crying-into-her-book girl got really popular by the 12th grade. It was totally bizarre. She got rid of the shirts with animals on them, stopped crying, started washing her hair and threw on some makeup. Before she knew it, she was a big hockey slut and everyone wanted her to sign their yearbook. Or do lines off it . . .

See! Happy endings do exist.
