I like to give the writers the benefit of the doubt and say they're writing for teenagers who are perpetually clueless. I think the Finn/Jesse pissing contest is no different than the Rachel/Preggers Girl pissing contest before the break.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Oh, and Sarameg: the writers DO NOT GET IT. On the race front, the ablism front, or the gender front.
Also, I find it hard to watch because I love the musical numbers and yet find most of the characters viscerally unlikeable. (Except for Kurt and his dad.) (Well, and Sue, but she's fun to not like. The rest are just unlikeable.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't mind the characters being unlikable, really -- hell, I watched Nip/Tuck (also Ryan Murphy) to the bitter end. And I was bitter.

I get that; but with television, I need somebody I like. Or I need to like more people than I dislike, anyway.

I like the singing, I just wish they'd avoid the messaging. Stupidass teens I can cope with. Flimsy afterschool special fail, nsm. But hell, I don't watch it often. Had no idea divorce was happening. I guess I just prefer fluff don't make me seriously annoyed. Fluff shouldn't make me think.

I think you should whitefont that there in the middle, sara.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
all the offices in my division (except the Captain's) have no windows
Yeah, that's how my floor is laid out. Offices ring the centre core, cubicles are around the edge. Shame we lost our ocean view when we moved, though. Now we're just overlooking random office buildings. Sadness. I think three sides of the building have decent views, and we're on the other one.
Whitefonted sara's noun.
Not sure why Glee never grabbed me. I've watched a few musical numbers, but never been tempted to watch the show.

Ack, sorry. So spotty watching as to not know what season. Thanks, ita.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I'm much more invested in the minor characters. It's the leads I mostly have no use for.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
no, I mean someone here asked, because I keep posting about what I am using up out of my pantry.
Ohhhh! Heh.
Yeah, as lovely as msbelle's place looks, it's entirely on the wrong coast. I was just curious because I suspected the pantry to be a closet to Narnia.
