What won’t those gays do next?

As someone who is herself a master of typos and a failure at proofreading, I shouldn’t be laughing here, but I found this story, from my local newspaper, ridiculously funny (emphasis mine):

A Bank of America branch in Corte Madera was robbed of an undisclosed sum of money Saturday morning, Twin Cities Police Department said. According to police, a while male in his late 40s or early 50s walked into the bank at 663 Tamalpais Drive at 10:12 a.m. He handed a note to a teller demanding money but did not display a weapon. The suspect was given the money and fled, although police were unable to locate the suspect in the area.

Police described the suspect as approximately 6 feet tall with short brown hair and a brown and gray beard. He wore a gay [sic] hooded sweatshirt, camouflage baseball cap, blue jeans and flip-flop sandals.

There’s a clever joke in there somewhere — one that’s not offensive — and I wonder if you guys can find it.  My word play and punning abilities are not up to the task.

    We now have happy sappy bank robbers instead of grim and eternally poor/victimized ones. Happy days are upon us all. Certainly the psychotic Joker would approve.

    Suspect was arrested by the ‘Fashion Police’ for impersonating someone with good taste.

    Although witnesses described the suspect as grim, his sweatshirt broke out in spontaneous song, turning a dangerous situation happy.

    Take the Money and Run

    Teller: What does this say?
    Virgil: Uh, can’t you read that?
    Teller: I can’t read this. What is this? “Abt natural”?
    Virgil: No it just reads, “Please put $50 thousand into this bag. Act natural.”
    Virgil: (pointing to the note) “I, uh, am pointing a gun at you.”
    Teller: That looks like “gub”, it doesn’t look like “gun”. No, it’s “gub”. That’s a B.
    Virgil: No you see, it’s an N … G-U-N.
    Teller: George, would you step over here a moment please.
    Teller: What does this say?
    George: “Please put $50 thousand into this bag and … abt” — What’s “abt”?
    Teller: “Act”. Does this look like “gub” or “gun”?
    George: “Gun”. But what’s “abt” mean?
    Teller: It’s “act” … A- C-T, act. Please put $50 thousand into this bag. Act natural.
    George: Oh, I see, this is a hold up.
    Virgil: Yes.

    Couldn’t resist after reading the description of the suspect.
