I don't know if this counts but I LOATHE the usage of "You're gay." as an insult. Since when - and how - is that a decent comeback? By using the word in that way you're making it derogatory and symbolizing that it stands for something bad or annoying.
Such as also when people say ___ is so gay. Same thing. You're making it seem like it's a terrible thing and putting sexuality on an object - how is that right or even remotely make any sense?
It's such a commonly used phrase in schools nowaday and I hate all that it stands for and means. I wish we'd all go back to 'Cool beans.' :p
