It means that being able to draw is NF. As if to say, doing artistic things is typically considered gay, and being gay is NF. The conclusion drawn by this particular Frat Move is that it is fratty to oversimplify artistic ability into homosexuality. It’s a typical reductionist absurdist attitude that is commonly parodied on this website. Overlooked, however, is the fact that Macklemore is, himself, an accomplished ‘artist’ and is a very visible supporter of the gay community. (For a more structured look at this type of humor, see also: Reductio ad absurdum.)
It’s one of the much dryer TFMs that have come through and not just a simple “something fratty. TFM” one, and I guess most people just don’t get it.
I do disagree about the Macklemore thing though, I think everyone and the submitter knows he is a big supporter of gay rights, and this adds to the ridiculousness and absurdity of the submission, thus elevating it’s hilariousness as well. Just takes a second to see how good it really is.
I understand that it is turning around what Macklemore said by turning a song that speaks positively about gay people into one mocking a stereotype, but I still dislike the TFM because Macklemore remains the one committing the TFM and I refuse to accept that he can do that, even if unintentionally.
I get that they were going for the whole gay=NF thing, I just don’t like Macklemore anyway.
What the fuck? Now thinking you were gay is fratty? Fuck you intern.

13 years ago at 11:24 pmPreview for Friday?
13 years ago at 11:29 pmLike seriously how the fuck do these submissions get through?
13 years ago at 11:31 pmMacklemore. NF. Assuming you’re gay. NF.
13 years ago at 11:39 pmThis is such bullshit now the damn liberals are taking over TFM too
13 years ago at 11:39 pmI would rather push my own eyes out, blade runner style, than listen to Same Love.
13 years ago at 11:39 pmAll of you don’t get it.

13 years ago at 12:43 amAlso, I formally apologize to the Joke Explainer troll for taking his one opportunity at usefulness.
13 years ago at 12:45 amI haven’t seen the joke explainer since ‘nam so I think it’ll slide with him.

13 years ago at 8:52 amIt’s ironic because the song about somebody being gay, is actually pretty fucking gay.
