Tim Minchin learns a valuable lesson

Some of you might already be aware Tim Minchin wrote an atheist Christmas song for a charity CD, and the proceeds went to the Salvation Army. Pharyngula wrote that he was disappointed that Tim would support such a corrupt organization, but to be fair, it looks like he was unaware the money would be going to these homophobic douchebags. Regardless, he decided not to make a big deal of it, and the whole thing ...

It's basically saying "high school is full of homophobic dicks you will eventually not be around anymore". Seriously though, how many people at Pixar are gay?
