...Not that there's anything wrong with that... 

An expression used when denying homosexuality but remaining politically correct and without bigotry or homophobia. Usually said after such exclamations as "I'm not gay," etc.

HISTORY: Popularized by the TV show "Seinfeld" (NBC, 1989-1998, currently in reruns). In Season 4, Episode 17, titled "The Outing," the characters Jerry Seinfeld (Jerry Seinfeld) and George Costanza (Jason Alexander), are mistaken to be a gay couple by a reporter. When they deny their homosexuality, they follow it with "Not that there's anything wrong with that" no matter how desperate they are to clear their names of the for some reason bad publicity homosexuality brings celebrities.
"People think just because I use hand lotion and hair gel that I'm gay, but really, I'm not...Not that there's anything wrong with that..."

Not that there's anything wrong with that 

Disclaimer used when one is wrongly suspected of being homosexual.
We aren't gay! Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Not that there's anything wrong with that 

A phrase used when a man is talking about homosexuals when they are not around and do not want to sound offensive. Or when someone is in danger of being thought of as gay, they will fervently object, then use this phrase.
Yo man, I'm not gay! Not that there's anything wrong with that.

And that's why I didn't do anything 

It's not justified, huh? Maybe that's why I didn't do it.

Iam "Well... We didn't do nothing. We did this."

Hym "THIS didn't really accomplish anything. They still got away with it. We still lost our job."

Iam "We stopped doing our job."

Hym "We stopped doing our our job 2 years before we got fired for stopping. It wasn't the not working we got fired for. These people criticizing us have selective illiteracy."
Iam "Or they assume we're lying."

Hym "Of all the... Look at the shit we've said. We'll say ALL OF THAT but we wont say words that are true!?"

Iam "I know. They just don't want to hear it. They don't want to here it and they don't care."

Hym "They don't have to read the shit but that sat and read the while damn thing. Every word of it."

Iam "For which I am eternally grateful (by the way). But that isn't the point. They aren't involved."

Hym "They involved themselves by choosing to participate. How do they not see that it could just as easily happen to people they don't hate? This thing predates any actual wrongdoing. They're using some kind of medium that is so comprehensive that a woman was able to tell me that a red car was about to turn down the street a full 15 seconds before it happened. The feint to fight Orwellian dictatorship but they legitimately just want to reserve the right to wield this against THEIR enemies when the time comes. And they want to talk about ethics. They just want to see what the end result will be. Comply and submit to a life of servitude regardless of the effect you have on the outside world or do something for which we can punish you so we can determine whether or not this is an effective means of controlling miscreants. Giving me the illusion of control does not give me control. I see through the illusion. This is a farce. I know it isn't justified by the strictures I outlined. And that's why I didn't do anything."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
