Er? Really?

It appears there is a petition started seeking to rename the iconic Aussie ice-cream ‘Golden Gaytime’

Have we really become that precious that we take offence at an ice-cream being named gay? Personally I love the idea and think it a physical manifestation of the Aussie sense of humour. 

My guess is the petitioner is either a shit-stirrer or a first generation immigrant who doesn’t understand Aussie humour (or has no sense of humour at all)

I vote we should be able to have them in  pommieland.  They sound delicious.

For a Scandinavian viewpoint  on the name enjoy this https://satwcomic.com/let-s-have-a-gay-time. The comments are worth looking through as well.

Please, please can we have a special import of Golden Gaytime to the UK. I will even break my strict doctor ordered diet to indulge in some. 

This name has got to be kept. It is just too gay to ignore. There is a chapter set in Australia in book two of the Johnny series. I am definitely going to write in some mention of Golden Gaytime.

I agree.

Apparently ALDI  have a clone called 'Summer Delight.'

But, as far as I can tell, only in Australia.
