Columbia, huh? Is that the gem of the ocean” one, or -

Colombia, the land of the Cumbia, Pan de Bono and beautiful women?

Even the creator of the show realized it had no redeeming qualities. And that includes the star, America Ferrera, who apparently hates the country she was named after.

Not suicide. Botulism. Bad meat in the can.

These findings, which indicate that homosexual and bisexual males are 13.9 times more at risk for a serious suicide attempt, are consonant with previous findings.

“Bad meat in the can”? LOL. Did you see my post 4?

For a guy like that, bad meat in the can can lead to AIDS.

***I looked it up. As I suspected. He was a Homo. ***

My first thought. The doll in the photo was just a meaningless prop.

Mental disease leads to his early death.

Second thought was TDS.

No disrespect to this guy intended, but I can’t miss a Horta joke opportunity. :)

The real tragedy here? He did it in a hotel room. Great. Now a hazmat unit will have to come in and spend hours cleaning up this mess. How thoughtless of this poofter!

You didn’t know that Columbo is now a woman? Columbia, the transgendered lesbian. Just one more thing, sir, he’s a midget, too.

Was wondering if anyone would make that connection.
