It's not Len's fault the word queer is also a casual term for homosexual. If you're looking to find innuendo, the judges make sure you don't have to dig for it.

Fine, your perogative. I have much more to worry about than your opinion.

Clearly worthwhile deriding the op for finding Len's antiquated language humourous though
