I'm not a "Tonight Show" fan. I mean, I WAS when Johnny Carson was the host, but once the baton was handed over to Jay Leno, I tuned out. I just don't think Jay Leno is funny.

Case in point, Leno's interview with actor Ryan Phillippe on March 19th. Leno asked Phillippe about his first TV role, which was playing a gay teen on "One Life to Live". At one point, Leno asked Phillippe to show him his "gayest look".

"Can you give me, like -- say that camera is your gay lover ..."

To Phillippe's credit, he answered "I will not." But Leno wouldn't let up, and continued "Can you give me your 'gayest look'? Say that camera is Billy Bob – Billy Bob has just ridden in shirtless from Wyoming."

See what I mean? Not funny.

Leno did issue an apology to People, saying that his attempt at banter "came out wrong."

"In talking about Ryan's first role, I realize that what I said came out wrong," the host said. "I certainly didn't mean any malice. I agree it was a dumb thing to say, and I apologize."

Of course, by that time Jeff Whitty and Melissa McEwan co-founded MyGayestLook.com, to give visitors a way to showcase their "gayest" expression.

The site, she says, "raises awareness about the fact that gay jokes really just aren't funny."

The pictures that are showcased on the site are of various people "flipping the bird".

Now THAT'S funny.
