Now, as I see it, if bunches of sticks (faggots) decide to go marching around, that's \news/! I can't understand \any/ newspaper that wouldn't put this on the front page. As for these sticks having a "Pride Week," well, I didn't know sticks travelled in prides like lions, but there are some odd names in English for groups of things. Or is it that they were proud of being sticks? I can't see anything wrong with that; there's certainly no shame in being a stick.
