SYDNEY, Tuesday: In a move confirming the worst fears of
conservatives, representatives of the gay community today announced a
list of words they intend to hijack over the next five years.

"We're pretty happy with what we've done to �gay'," a spokesman said
joyously. "Instead of �lighthearted' or �male character in pre-1910
fiction' everyone who sees the words instantly thinks of two
moustaches gobbling each other's helmet."

Meetings of the Gays for Removing Innocence from the English Language
have now decided that the time has come to expand their targets.

"Among the terms slated for hijack are �happy' - which will mean
passive recipient of anal intercourse from the beginning of financial
year 2002 � to �appointment' which now designates an amyl-nitrate
soaked orgy in a public toilet. The meanings of the terms �amused',
�sardonic' �insouciant' �dentist' and �plain upstanding bloke who
objects to words being hijacked' have also all been altered, to
�fistfucker'."
