once upon a time, i was in an honors english class as a sophomore in high school, and we covered the great gatsby

and once a day, every day, one young man would say, in the exact same inquisitive tone of wonder,

“wait a minute! is nick gay for gatsby?”

until finally, one day, our teacher shouted, “YES NICK IS GAY FOR GATSBY BUT I CAN’T TEACH YOU THAT BECAUSE THIS IS A CATHOLIC SCHOOL.”
