** For those a bit behind on the news in the Gay Community...[[The Fundamentalist|Rick Santorum]] once stated that two men having sex was equivalent to [[Insane Troll Logic|"a man having sex with a dog"]]. [[The "It Gets Better" Project|Dan Savage]] took issue with this and basically created the meme.
** Dan Savage also tried to create a definition for "[[Technical Virgin|saddlebacking]]" (in reference to the Saddleback Church in Orange County, California, owned by Rick Warren) with considerably less success.

Say what you will about their directing skills, but Uwe Boll has no right to criticize them. This is also the video in which he claims to be "ze only genius in ze whole fucking business".
** Ironically, he may have a point—since his films were financed by the German government, he profited even when the movies suck. Germany closed that loophole though; Boll kept trying to make movies, but for some reason [[Man Behind the Man|investors were no longer interested]], and [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|he does not understand why.]]

Broadcaster [[Keith Olbermann]] later picked up the concept, ''sans'' specific attack, and used it in his ''Countdown''.
