Paul Rolly: Blogger fired from language school over homophonia’

The people concerned had better start rethinking their beliefs about immigration, lest they end up with a homo geneous society. They'd better stop drinking homo genous milk. And they'd better avoid using words like "fair" and "fare" or "mail" and "male" because they're homo nyms.
Seriously, this is what happens when you privatize education and get rid of teacher tenure.
"Social media strategist fired after blog post about homophones 'was seen as relating to homosexuality'" (Headline from the Independent newspaper )
I'm not surprised.

...because gentleman geek Stephen Fry (who eats, sleeps & breathes everything Apple!) who is gay, would use homophones whilst listening to music on his iPhone 5. Which he uses religiously , seeing as he is one of the most followed people on the planet via the social network Twitter; no doubt said followers would recommend relevant media to him, as no doubt they would download & listen to podcasts by him & via his own site.

The blessed Stephen Fry also writes for the Independent:

...the wonderfully multi-talented & moist correspondent he is! b^_^d
This isn't fundie; this is just ignorant.
Wait, the person was fired? This is fundie, never mind.
This reminds me: When I was in school I learned the meaning of and difference between the words “heterosexual” and “homosexual” and had quite a bit of fun asking my friends (who didn’t) if they are heterosexual. They all vehemently denied it.
But we had the excuse that we were only ten years old
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
