ok I was just telling my sisters about the Vito Russo test and I was trying to say "one of the founders of GLAAD," but instead I said "one of the flounders of Gad" which is an extremely fun phrase to say. So of course we imagined the live action Little Mermaid remake but with Josh Gad as Ariel, and he spends the whole movie managing his swarm of Flounders (who of course include Vito Russo). And actually this movie would pass the Vito Russo test because now Ariel is gay for Eric, but being gay is not his primary character trait; his primary character trait is managing all his Flounders and their various fish problems. It's called "The Flounders of Gad" and they go on quests and stuff. And none of them are actual flounders, they're all different types of fish who are just named Flounder -- except Vito Russo, who is a flounder named Vito Russo.
