Death for Funny or Die’s ‘The Gay Gang’

I sort of giggled at the beginning but felt like the overall tone of Funny or Die’s “The Gay Gang” comedy video was out of line.

Give me a couple glasses of red and I’m determined to give the straight bouncer at The Junction head! He’s so cute, I make rhymes about him.

Are gays too entitled when it comes to straight men? Or is this video offensive? Probably both, which would be fine, if it were funnier. Unfortunately, it should Die a slow and painful death for the styling alone:
