from "National Lampoon" May 1977
Instead of the usual glowing paradisiacal enticements of the typical senior citizen rest home, the comic discrepancy in this parody arises from its plain balls-out contempt for its prospective gay clientele. That even in an ad, disgust from society is all that is rightly deserved, with no right to ever expect any better. I suspect that the authors of this would claim that this is all ironical, merely a pretence of vicious bigotry. Maybe that’s even the case.
