The word of the day is Hoyay.

Short for "homoeroticism yay!"

Homoerotic subtext (and obvious text) in film, books, television shows, or movies. Usually followed by a feeling of glee in the viewer. Commonly used at TelevisionWithoutPity.com in recaps and forums.

- Clark and Lex are staring into each others' eyes again! Hoyay!
- There is a lot of HoYay in the film The Talented Mr. Ripley.
- There is even more HoYay in The Outsiders
- Ewan McGregor is the king of Hoyay.



Now if you don't get the word think of a bad reality show or any show for that matter. You could say that there was a little HoYay in Survivor with the Lex-Colby-Ethan alliance with the awkward silence and stareing. How about one of the best forms of HoYay, Jeremy from the Real World/Road Rules Inferno. He gives the dewy-eyed youngster that will do anything for the team with odd dopey looks into his interviews he does. I'm sure i'm not the only one that sees HoYay in Jeremy. Most people on TelevisionWithoutPity see that too!

It's funny though, Issis took a little offence about the Ewan statment. I still see E-wan when I spell Eu-wan, you know?

So did you see the Oscars last night? I saw Chicago twice yesterday that was enough of Renee for a week or so.
