It's an expression that I don't particularly like
why 'Gay' has become a word of contempt or to denote something as boring escapes me.

I agree
using gay as a term of derision is just totally well gay.

Some research shows that 'gay' was used as a term of derision
before it was used to mean homosexual.
That said, I doubt very much that most of those using it know this.

I thought it meant 'happy' before being used to mean homosexual.
