queer 

\`queer\
1. adj.
(a) strange, unusual
(b) gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered

2. n.
A member of the lgbt community.

Background:
Originally, "queer" was simply just another word for strange, unusual, or wierd. When gay people first started coming out of the closet, they were seen as strange, unusual, and diseased. Thus, the word "queer" began denoting someone who is gay, lesbian, transgendered, or bisexual. Recently, it has been adopted by many people in the LGBT commnunity as an acceptable umbrella term. However, not all people are comfortable using it.

1.
(a) That crazy person is quite queer.
(b) My friend is queer, she told me yesterday.

2.
Person A: Did you see that fucking queer? I hate them!
Person B: Shut up, dude, don't hate them for no reason. What did they ever do to you?

It only means "odd". A lot of people think it means "fag" or "gay", but it really doesn't. People need to get their fucking facts straight before they go off and use a word.

It's December, but warm outside. That's queer.

queer 

Re-claimed umbrella term used to describe the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Transsexual and general non-heterosexual communities. Queer is the opposite of Straight.

The word is becoming more acceptable than ‘Gay’ especially for homosexual woman and bisexuals who often object to being called’ gay’ which is used more often to describer gay men. It is still often used (just as ‘gay’ is) as an insult to queer people, but is taken with a pinch of salt these days.

(v.) To spoil or ruin

As of the morning of 06-20-04, I started a battery discharge analysis of this flashlight. About 20 minutes in, I somehow managed to queer the test, so I installed another Energizer L91 lithium cell in the flashlight, and started another.

queer 

Anything unusual, such as dropping the soap in the prison shower and having an oily and wet penis inserted into your orifice.

Golly! Someone has inserted a slippery phallus into my rectum, what a queer predicament I have found myself in.
