i think Singaporean gay men should be grateful that their local gay clubs have names that can fit easily into everyday sentences. well, or at least sentences that make sense. and short sentences, just to mention. in fact, an old favourite one that i think every gay men should know is:

(when being given a suggestion, and you must say this in the most exasperated way that you can muster)
You reply: WHY NOT? You mean it's a TABOO to be HAPPY?

imagine those guys in Queer As Folk with their gay club names like Meathook and Babylon. how the fuck do you use words like that so non-chalantly without feeling a sense of guilt involving incorrect grammer?

come to think of it, it's kinda good in a sad way that Centro has closed down eons ago. how in the world one is supposed to fit Centro into a sentence is beyond my mental capabilities.
