I figured it was because she doesn't know the reference. "The Jeffersons" is many years gone now.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Well, yeah, but the modern day take would be that Santana was calling her Lil Wayne and that's just as bad, if not a little bit worse. I doubt Mercedes would take that off Santana either.

But why else would she be calling her Weezie? It's totally out of left field otherwise. It's totally out of left field for kids this age, regardless.

Yeah, it was weird. To me it betrayed that the writers are not high school kids. :)

I part ways on Nathan, he's super adorable but doesn't really ping as sexy to me. Sean Bean is hotter than a thousand suns...

I would've died and gone to heaven if they'd sung something from Grease II. Maybe Brittany could've sung Cool Rider to Artie?

Nick at Nite? Boomerang? There's a lot of old stuff on TV since there are so many channels, like the Retro Channel that shows stuff from the 60s through the 80s.

I'm going to stick with the fact that Lil Wayne, for reasons which remain a mystery to me, is also known as Weezy F. Baby and that Santana, in her attempt to be down, is riffing on that every time she calls Mercedes Weezy. Not that I think Ryan Murphy knows that, but it makes as much sense as Santana being a big fan of Nick at Nite reruns of The Jeffersons.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey, a friend's 13-year-old son and all his friends watch reruns of the George Lopez sitcom.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure a kid that age would mean Lil Wayne when she said Weezy.
Like when my day care kids called me Uncle Jesse, giving my grammar school flashbacks, except the kids my age meant Dukes of Hazzard, not Full House.

Really? The Weezy thing didn't ping me at all. The Jeffersons Weezy ref makes sense, though it's kind of (really) assy. How does the Lil Wayne ref work?
