I thought they were comparing it to Mercedes's weight, not her skin color, especially since she and Quinn have addressed that before.

Yeah, I'm not sure about that.

At least they had Quinn acknowledge that it was a crap comparison. Still squickly.

There seemed to be an emphasis on the word "fat" in the dialogue. But then later, when Mercedes and Quinn were talking Quinn flat out said she wasn't trying to compare it to being black. At least, that's what I got out of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I call huge bullshit on not having Puck go full on Marky Mark shirtless and in nothing but Calvins. Puck doing Loser? Hotter than the sun. Finn doing Loser? Kind of a perdedor. How does that happen?

All of that. Crikey. Can they just get rid of Finn? It's not like he can even sing.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Or dance.

Yay! (Also, spoilers about a new character for next season. About which I say @@.)

Oh yeah, sorry for not warning about that...

Oh, I don't care that I got spoiled. I'm just not impressed with the character they're adding.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Only got to see about half of the episode last night (the rest is on Tivo for tonight). So I can only really say that Mr. Shue's "Tell Me Something Good" was hilarious in that special way that blatantly over-the-top seduction attempts can be.

Trust my rage

I had to fast forward through the "Tell Me Something Good" because it was so awkward and cringe-inducing.

I think I ended up muting every number except the Queen and P-Funk ones.

ETA: Nope, I listened through the "Good Vibrations" one too, cringing all the way except when Mercedes sang the Loleatta Holloway parts.
