Hey, Bret Easton Ellis! Word to the wise – you’re making things worse!
Yesterday, we reported that the Less Than Zero author tweeted something pretty deplorable about the show Glee. In his original tweet, he compared the hit show to a “puddle of HIV.”
Classy guy, right?
As you can imagine, he’s gotten nothing but slack about it since the tweet went up from his followers and the media. Now, normally, this would be the point in the story where we’d tell you how he apologized last night and insisted it was just a joke with no harm intended. We, unfortunately, can’t do that, since Brett doesn’t seem to have any remorse whatsoever about what he said and went on to add MORE to his disgusting remarks. Last night, he tweeted this turd gem:
“No, I wasn’t drunk last night. I was watching Chris Colfer singing, um, “Le Jazz Hot” and felt like I had suddenly come down with the hivs.”
How remarkably shallow, disgraceful and wretched of him.
Obviously, this guy has no idea what this show has meant to the gay community, especially gay youths, or he wouldn’t be so flippant to slice it down like this with such venom he’s disguising as humor. Or even if he really is just trying to be funny, he’s failing miserably.
Give it up, Bret. This is one verbal smackdown you aren’t going to win.
