A restaurant actually turned away a blind man because a waiter thought his guide dog was “gay”. No kidding.

“I’m sorry, but Fido’s clearly into same-sex doggy love, so you can’t eat here.” I’ve heard of homophobia, but this is ridiculous:

The restaurant’s owners said a misunderstanding had arisen between [Ian] Jolly’s female companion and a waiter who understood the woman “to be saying she wanted to bring a gay dog into the restaurant”.

“Gay dog”, “guide dog”. I guess in Australia, they sound similar.

Of course, it’s common knowledge that anyone who pets a gay dog turns gay. And that’s the worst thing that could happen to anyone! Ever! Especially at a restaurant!

Wait. Maybe it was really a transgender dog. What then?

So what was the big misunderstanding?

“The staff genuinely believed that Nudge was an ordinary pet dog which had been desexed to become a gay dog,” the owners said in a statement to South Australia’s Equal Opportunity Tribunal.

Desexed? So if you spay or neuter your pet, that switches him/her over to the other team? Why, it’s like magic!

The restaurant has been ordered to apologize and pay up.

Now, had the Condom Canine shown below wandered in, I could see kicking him out for ruining appetites due to exposure to bad taste:

    Good point… but if you run up almost 2 trillion in debt in 1 year with no clue how to repay it you can become president.

  • Laura

    I have always have my dogs fixed. Now I find out that I've been turning them gay as well!!! Horrors! Although, that might explain the spayed female dog that I once had that humped every dog she met.

    "U SHEEP WILL HAVE TO WAKE UP SOMETIME..WHEN UR BROKE LIVING OFF WICK,FOOD STAMPS,MEDICADE,OOO SORRY,THATS THE PLAN..I FORGOT"

    I am sure that you, like the rest of us received a stimulus check right….meaning you too have received government assistance as well…

  • KingCranky

    Take your own advice.

  • KingCranky

    Wow, a Palin supporter as thin-skinned as Sarah The Quitter, what a complete surprise.

  • THE_ENDER

    All gays should have there penis cut off and sholved in a pile of s@#t. I forgot. Thats what they do anyway. And for all the dems out there. Why not quit with all the sara jokes, ya are the freaking reason she got a shot at the white house.

    So, hows that change working out for ya? I will tell you. Just a word of advice for the dems of the world. Do you think there is a magic money tree some where, or do you know that the
    goverment can't give any thing to anyone unless they take it from someone else.

    And as for you teresa,John and proud. If you was not so poor and needed the handout that
    obama offeres, then you would be mad to. You need to understand a little more about how this country is ran, insted of popping off at the mouth.

    Clinton put millions of families out of work. And single handed ran your gas bill up when the housing market crashed and oil was the only way the goverment had to make money. Guess what? Clintons art of work again blamed on bush. Mad at the subprime lenders. They were the only way clinton was able to achevive his dream of people poor people in houses. Well that and the hefty fines the big mortage companies faced if they did not put blacks and poor people in houses. Please learn a little before you pop off at the mouth. You still look stupied either way.And you still want 4 more years of change.

  • Sarah

    Oh. Arkansas. That explains a lot right there.

  • Sarah

    You oughta go to Alaska yerself. Maybe you'd freeze yer stupid tongue!

  • Proud from Arkansas

    That would be WIC—infant, women and children–NOT wick as in the flame source for a candle…or maybe you palin supporters just burn a little dull and slow

  • Dan Cobbb

    Your post has ZERO reality in it. You're a hater, a racist, a homophobe, a misogynist, you name it. You people are so transparent. So pathetic. To a man, you guys are such loser, and you're trying to place the blame for your many life failures on that darn black man in the WHITE(man's) House. So sad and pathetic. Why don't you get some gumption and stop trying to blame your being a failure on other people!?

  • stefanie

    i don't think this is a real story. it seems too contrived and provocative.

  • Webstral

    So you are okay with bank CEOs making decisions that destroy the wealth that enables the American way of life? I guess it's not stealing if there's no gun involved. I guess it isn't wrong as long as he's got a business suit on and plays golf on Tuesdays. Get caught stealing a car, and it's ten years in jail. Steal ten billion dollars, and the public lines up to offer their condolences and best wishes for the next venture.

  • Brett Soulek

    Hmm.

  • John from Texas

    Shame this dog wasn't in Alaska. Sarah Palin's church could've prayed him, or it, straight.John f

  • Wallrats

    I'm thinking that this is being blown out of proportion.

    If I were working in a restaurant and I thought someone wanted to bring in a gay dog (or cat, or canary) I'd decline. Not because they were gay – but because you aren't allowed to bring animals into a restaurant – straight or gay. Unless, of course, it is a guide dog.

    So I think this is a misunderstanding of the purpose of having the animal instead of homophobia.

    Let's check our outrage meters because there is plenty of real stuff to get really pissed about.

    Of course – I could be wrong and the person is homo-dogo-phobic…(?) But I'm willing to bet that's not the case.
