Nice try.

Do tell. They HAVE been accepted into mainstream society up here. The world didn't come to a screeching halt and society didn't disintegrate.
It's a miracle!

They are pretty hard to miss when they are backing up traffic throughout half the downtown area.

Ahh...so...it's not the vulgarity that offends you. It's the traffic tie-up that happens once a year, on a weekend, in a place whose location you know and could easily avoid. You're a victim here. I see now.

Should I stop you before you make yourself dizzy?

Society IS disintegrating. Gay pride parades are not the cause but a symptom of that disintegration.

That's the second time you've used that cop-out in response to a legitimate question. Translation: you have no real problem, you just like to b**ch.

I only use it when the attempt was so hollow that there is nothing there to respond to.

Baloney. I asked how the "vulgarities" of the Pride Parade are different from the Mardi Gras Parade, and you responded with your idiotic "Nice Try!" because you've got nothing.

They aren't even close to being similar. I'm sure you will now go find the most extreme mardi gras picture you can and the most tame gay pride one but your not going to fool anyone.
