Stop acknowledging it, Nick. Embody Ron Swanson at Home Depot for just a moment. Some internet freak is complaining about the Frank/Bill episode of TLOU? Is breathing life into their argument by acknowledging it above or below Ron Swanson's pay grade? Does he in fact "know more than you"?

Nah. Disagree. I'm gay, and as much as I wish we didn't, we need people to stand up there and say, no, fuck you. This is a love story. They just love each other.

As much as I agree with your sentiment, anti-gay bigotry is nothing new, and will never go away. Let bigots scream themselves red in the face.
