Sorry that happened to you 

Oh! Hey! You spoke to... Um... Shit! Kaitlin's gay friend!
Hym "That's what I said to him when he said he got raped in prison. 'Sorry that happened to you.' Now, before you get man ladies, that's probably what I would say to you if you confessed to getting raped to me. Seems like the natural response. What was his name? 🤔 I don't remember. Did he tell you he tried to molest me, slapped me in the dick, and then threw up on the couch and blamed it on me? Gay dude love me, what can I said. They aren't selecting based on fat-cock so they are usually down to bang. Not gay though, so, I'm not really getting a lot of mileage out of it."
More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
