	kafetzou จำนวนข้อความ: 7963	NOTE: "gay" has several meanings nowadays in English. There's the original "gay" meaning "happy", but that only appears in very old fashioned texts. The most common meaning is "homosexual", but I'm not sure if that makes sense in this case. The third meaning is one used by young people (teens and young adults), which is "stupid" or "not streetwise".
