When people say, "that's a bummer," they mean, "oh no dude, that totally blows" but I can't help but hear a plainly descriptive term for a homosexual.
"That's a bummer. Right there. And look, there's another one." If it's not working for you, try it again with an English accent. Better?
Then again, Wiktionary says:
During the American Civil War, especially during Sherman's southern campaign, "bummers" would leave the ranks sometimes for a week or more to forage and incidentally to reconnoiter. [My emphasis.]So I really don't know what to believe. I'm just going to avoid the word altogether.
