If you ever came to IRC, jrossi, you'd have known this an hour ago!!

*dances a little jig*

I was the first gay person Neil ever met.

You're right. I need to make an IRC visit. But right now..I need to sleep more.

"Neil Patrick Harris just stole my car."
"Hey! NPH wouldn't do that, aight?"

*gasp*

actually, about 3 years ago, a MeChaZen who shall remain nameless let some hints slip on my [now deleted] blog. so, like most of the known world, I'm not shocked.

I'm guessing no one was shocked that NPH is gay.

I was shocked when I found out he wasn't really a doctor.

Those were some great boonsnaggles he had ahold of in that Kumar Goes to White Castle movie.

So what prompted the sudden press release? Sudden announcements like this are usually preempting some kind of media scoop or tell-all doggerel from Kitty Kelly. What's the dish?

He's not linked to Ted Haggard is he?

Mr. (Rev.) Green in the loft with a rope?

rawr!

simp, here's the original gossipy tidbit (scroll down a bit) that first prompted his publicist to deny that Neil's gay, then for Neil to come out.

I credit his parents for his integrity. They are the bomb.

Damn. There goes one childhood crush onto the "forever unavailable" list.

You know, I never thought about it. Will there be a test on this later?

I actually love How I Met Your Mother. . .for a sitcom, good writing, pacing, etc. . .I wonder if they will do any riffs on this in that show. There have been one or two witch/lesbian references with Alyson Hannigan.
