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?

MY SISTAH!

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.

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.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

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?

I don't know how it works, per se, but he's definitely called that.

I'm sure the writers mean it as a Jeffersons reference.

Sure, but what makes it work in reference to Mercedes? That's where it falls apart for me.

(Also, Weezy's kind of awesome. So it might not be meant that way but not the worst thing to be called.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Anybody ever watch Code Monkeys? I'm trying to figure out what the design on Dave's shirt is supposed to be.

Oh, I don't think that's actually what the writers meant, just what actual teens would mean.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

The circulars for tomorrow's papers are already advertising Glee's "Rocky Horror" soundtrack. I'm wondering who's going to take on Dr. Frank-N-Furter, because I'm not sure any of the kids (or at least their characters) has the outrageous flamboyance to be able to handle it.
