Or something or other like that.
Someone put up a billboard with a pair of twins on it. One gay, one straight. The message? Nobody is born gay.
The guy on the billboard is gay.
He is not, however, a twin.
Epic fail.

Speaking via Skype, Kyle Roux said he was shocked his image was used. Especially since he calls himself an "out and proud" gay man.
"I was obviously quite shocked, so that why I decided to send you guys an email saying hey, I'm that guy in that billboard," Roux said.
Roux hasn't thought about that photo shoot in nearly a decade. He says the pictures used on the billboard were part of a stock photo shoot he did. Roux signed away the rights and was told the pictures would be used in commercial and corporate ads and brochures.
Thursday morning, friends, family and even Roux's trainer asked if he was featured in the ad, which claimed to show identical twins and the statement, "Nobody is born gay."
It's ironic, says Roux, given that he's not a twin and openly gay.
Epic fail.
