I think all of you who use gay as a pejorative are nerds.
And saying that the only way to make it go away is to ignore it? That's smurfing geeky. It works so well with bullying, the national debt, civil rights~
if any of you nerds ever studied writing and composition, you'd know that words have connotations. Slang or not, whether you are mentally invoking connotations, they happen.
These commercials probably aren't the best way, but if any of you guys aren't asshats, you'll start using the word gay to mean something good, as a self-descriptor, the way that nerds and geeks started to reclaim those derogatory words. If it goes ignored, then the connotation permanently enters the vocabulary, like lame, moron, negro, colored. The group in question has no choice but to change vocabulary: disabled, mentally handicapped, persons of color.
Seriously, you all think you're clever and funny, but you're just being jackasses. Help some folks out, and have a gay time doing so!
Basically, hang together, or we'll all hang separately. And if you don't want to hang together, I don't want to hang out with you
