queer: Originally pejorative for gay, now being reclaimed by some gay men, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered persons as a self-affirming umbrella term. Caution: still extremely offensive when used as an epithet.

Man, my 5-6-7-9 is a straight-up queer.

Originally meant to describe something as unusual or strange. Became a deroggatory word to describe homosexuals. More recently, it has been reclaimed by non-heterosexuals as a word used to describe themselves. Queer can now be used to describe homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgendered people. In scholarly studies the word queer is also used to describe those who practice unconventional sex (e.g. bondage, etc.), therefore even heterosexuals can sometimes be defined as queer.

Originally used to define homosexuals. Now used loosely as an insult to something weird/stupid/fucked up

Kelly: "Check out that old man. He looks very queer."
Some tiktok feminist: "Bro how can you assume somebody's sexuality without talking to him? How offensive, scathing, derogatory, and disgusting of you!"
Kelly: "No I meant as in weird you fucking bozo."
