Unrequited Love ( no homo)

The reason for this post is two fold : 1) I recently watched "The Holiday", a Jude Law romcom (no homo) of the "Love Actually"/"Notting Hill" family of disasters and the British characters adore the phrase "Unrequited Love." Which, when said with a British accent, makes it that much more infuriating to hear, and 2) because I needed an excuse to talk about this "no homo" phenomenon.

If you are unaware, allow me to enlighten. "No homo" is most commonly used after saying something that might be taken in a gay or otherwise homo-ish manor. Saying "no homo" erases all gayness thus rendering it null and void. See example below. If you're still confused you are probably gay (not that there's anything wrong with that , etc etc).
