  • Read what I said above.

    Lol he was clearly trying to piss them off. DO you know Kenny's character at all ?

  • I'll assume the picture's about brushing teeth...

  • Yeah, but it's ironic because, if Kenny was in a group with Walter and Matthew(who were gay couple), then why would he make fun of Luke and Nick being gay? Despite how much people like Kenny, there's no doubt that he really wouldn't be a good friend.

    I don't think so, to me it was like Kenny was trying to get them mad, kind of degrade them so he seemed superior. No! I don't mean that being gay is degrading, just- you know what I mean.

  • Yeah, usually one would want to brush their teeth after that...

    /bad joke

  • Agreed. Kenny can say stuff without thinking sometimes, but I don't think he's so insensitive that he'd mock the orientation of the men who took in him and his girlfriend and offered them so much hospitality. Clearly Walter liked him enough to talk highly of him. I doubt he would speak that way if there were issues of homophobia going on.

  • Nobody forced you to come here and complain, so yeah...

    I don't know. I really don't view it that way. I mean, just before that moment he made a light-hearted (if kind of gross) joke. And yeah, it

  • Kenny seemed to like Walter a lot, calling him "one smart son of a bitch" and complimenting his cooking. Kenny was also devastated when Walter died. If you go to him for help, he says "Walt" really sad, then flies into a rage and tries to shoot Carver a few more times as he calls him a "motherfucker." From the interaction we saw between those two, it looked like they were actually pretty good friends.

  • Well, yeah. That's my point. It was a weird introduction, but he wasn't pissed off at them. There was no real reason for him to try and put Luke and Nick down at that point.

    It's Kenny, guys. He's Floridian, crazy shit is coming out of his mouth.

    But seriously, I can see Nick having feelings for Luke but he surely won't ever tell him. But it could also be that he admires him a lot.

    I see them as close friends but I wouldn't mind if Nick had feelings for Luke.

  • Well said!

  • Why do you feel the need to reassure your view on the matter, by stating that the majority would agree with you on the matter ? Why can't you be an individual and talk on behalf of yourself.

    I'm pretty sure everyone would react the same way as Nick reacted when told that you and someone look like a couple.

  • I'm quite sure Luke isn't into guys. He made a comment in ep 1 about liking girls. "I'm an expert at talking to girls who don't wanna talk to me." And I guess I just don't think in slash terms, because I hadn't even considered the possibility that Nick likes Luke until I started reading about it on these forums.

    I didn't think twice about that Kenny comment. Kenny is very up front. If he was trying to insult Luke and Nick, they would have known. He was just being annoying in his own adorable, un-self aware way. I think his comment says way more about him than about Luke or Nick. But now that I think of it, it COULD be that Nick has a little crush on Luke. Or it could just be that Nick became a little more attached to Luke once Luke became his only surviving framily (friend/family). We'll probably never know.

  • I think he was just trying to insult them. When you call people something they aren't they'll get defensive.

  • Plus Kenny was already originally suspicious with him and Nick. He was probably just sizing them up, looking for a reaction.

  • I mean... I guess it depends on the person, but people get the most defensive when they feel they need to protect something in some way. I dunno, Luke just didn't even really react to the comment, but I feel like it's very valid to believe that Nick may have reacted that way because he panicked and wanted to idea something.

    Like i said, it depends on the person. I'm sure there are people out there who get defensive over things they needn't.

  • Well, to me, it was a reaction that said

    "Hey buddy, I know what you're saying, don't call me that!"

    Assuming that he isn't gay, it's probably insulted his 'man hood' in his kind of terms.

  • Well, yeah, Nick is quite clearly insecure in his manhood. I think a lot of that has to do with his father absence in his life. He's very Freudian, bless 'im.

    I mean, yeah, it could be just that, or it could be a little more complex--being gay while already having insecurities on being a man would no doubt weaken his already flimsy self-esteem, and the defensiveness of now wanting to be found out, that I mentioned before, all stems from the fact that he doesn't want to be perceived as less than a man.

    Well, to me, it was a reaction that said "Hey buddy, I know what you're saying, don't call me that!" Assuming that he isn't gay, it's probably insulted his 'man hood' in his kind of terms.
