Anti-embolism stockings...
Jul. 2nd, 2011 05:03 pmRe-watching season 1 and season 2 of Glee has lead me to the following conclusions/observations:
• This show is still a clusterfuck, but that really doesn't come as any surprise. Less of a clusterfuck in the first episodes of season 1, though...
• Will Schuester is an incurable dick. From blackmailing Finn to join the club to not listening to what Rachel & Co have to say about not wanting to perform "Freak Out" at the assembly, he's just an all-around shitty teacher. I know -- colour me surprised.
• Quinn is still the gayest girl that ever gayed. She just comes across as being a repressed queermo in the first couple of episodes, to be perfectly honest. Also, pretty sure Rachel steals the Celibacy Club's gavel in "Showmance". I wonder what Quinn had to say about that...
• "Acafellas" -- cheerleaders trying to employ a professional choreographer = "Bring It On"? Where's all the jazz hands, though? Lol, and John Stamos is mentioned. ;D Also, ugh! Finn!
• ... although I kind of don't mind Finn and Kurt in "Preggers". And Puck sure seems pretty adamant about Finn and Kurt being an item...
• "The Rhodes Not Taken" -- ugh! Will and Finn! Ugh! And even though Rachel is being completely unreasonable, I guess I get her in some way.
• Lol! Brittana high five in "Vitamin D". Priceless!
• In "Throwdown," there's a scene where Quinn says: "The minority students don't feel like they are being heard." The camera shifts directly to Santana afterwards, showing her wearing this subtle *look* on her face. Ooh, I wonder what she reacted to there? ;P Also, LOL! The other Cheerios are not "academically eligible. Mr. Schuester flunked them." So, that means the only Cheerios out practising that day were the Unholy Trinity? Awww. Also, Gwyneth Paltrow gets mentioned. And, seriously -- this: Rachel: "And I'd practise a little bit more, because you obviously have a *lot* you need to express." Quinn (grinning at Rachel): "Oh, you have *no* idea." Gay! Gaaay!
• I like Puck and Rachel as friends in "Mash-Up". Too bad we haven't had more scenes of them just interacting as that.
• "Ballad": okay, so it's official -- Quinn has the shittiest parents in the world. And, oh Lordy, somehow I'd forgotten about that truly awkward scene with Finn singing to a sonogram on his Macbook. Rofl. Oh, and Quinn lives on Dudley Road, apparently.
• "Hairography": Splits! Magazine, eh? I wonder if any of the Queerios read it. *coughSantanacough*...
• Lol! I like that the picture of Jesse St. James overlaps a rainbow flag in Rachel's locker in "Hell-O". Not a sign ~at all~. Also, the Glee kids really do act like assholes towards Rachel.
• So, this is the Glist: 1. Quinn. 2. Santana. 3. Puck. 4. Brittany. 5. Jesse. 6. Finn. 7. Mike. 8. Matt. 9. Rachel. All I'm getting from this is Quinntana *and* repressed Faberry feelings from Quinn's side.
• "Theatricality": Will: "Tina, are there any other looks you can try?" Santana: "Biker chick?" Well, hello Santana's-Inner-Lesbian, nice of you to show your face! ;D Just one question -- why did Rachel bring Quinn along with her to spy on Vocal Adrenaline? I get Mercedes, but... Quinn? I don't get it.
• Yeah... I still don't understand Mercedes' attitude towards Quinn in "Funk." Don't get it at all. And, yeah -- no hints of the Lucy thing here! Continuity -- not in this show. Also, stop. saying. funk!
--
• Uh, Puck getting a vasectomy -- was that a joke or... Mark plays is as though Puck *did* go through with it. "Seemed like the only right thing to do." And, hold up -- did Artie just equate being gay as to having a handicap? Whut? You're a shit noodle, dude. Sam's dyslexic? Missed that the first time around. Finchel -- yeaaah, no. Not working, won't ever work for me.
• Lol! Quinn looking goddamn *everywhere else than at Rachel* in "Britney/Brittany" will never not be amusing!
• Artie is just as bad as Will and Finn when they are at their worst! Also, all the awards to Mike for being awesome. I like that boy. Also, this: Will: "Last year when the Cheerios won the national championship, Santana pantsed Brittany and she was wearing a lot less than her underwear. Neither of them were suspended." Figgins: "That was in the middle of a celebration." Damn right -- a celebration of ~teh gaaay~!
• "The Substitute": Oh gawd, Kurt! Shut up. Jeez.
• "Furt": be afraid -- be very afraid. Quinn knows how to break into lockers. That's... fic material right there. Planting incriminating objects and whatnot.
• "Special Education": Santana (to Rachel): "Did I tell you he bought me dinner after?" LOL, yes, Santana -- a glorious burger at the nearest joint. That's real glamorous.
• Uhm... how come no one considers the possibility of Sam being bisexual instead of gay in "Rumours". It... does not compute.
• Santana has a framed picture of Brittany in her Cheerios uniform on her nightstand. Enough said.

What else's been going on...
Trying to get my fic-writing mojo on. Am failing at the moment. Got a number of fic ideas for Glee now, which is making me both go D: as well as kind of... amusing me? It's drawing all my attention, goddamnit!
And let's throw a meme in here too while we're at it, why not. Any fandom I'm familiar with is fair game:

Date: 2011-07-02 07:13 pm (UTC)My het OTP: Lol! Richard/Kahlan. They're like puppies together. Silly, idiotic puppies. ;D
My slash OTP: Richard/Darken Rahl. They love each other like brothers from the... same father. True, though.
My femslash OTP: Hmm... it's... a tie between Cara/Kahlan and Cara/Dahlia, I think? I dunno! Each pairing provides me with different forms of entertainment! Maybe I'm a teeny-tiny bit partial to Cara/Dahlia...
My endgame OTP: When it comes down to it, I think I nominate Cara/Dahlia. Their love is pure and, ho boy, angsty. It's quite delicious~.
My original OTP: Cara/Kahlan. I'll always love these two together. :3
My crack OTP: emo!Kahlan/BAMF!Kahlan, fo sure! :D
My guilty pleasure OTP: Nicci/confessed!Kahlan. Don't you try to deny it -- that shit was hot!
My anti-OTP: Cara/Darken Rahl.
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 07:45 pm (UTC)Feelings!Kahlan/confessor!Kahlan is practically canon, which just goes to show how awesomely cracky this whole show is. :D
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 08:02 pm (UTC)It is the finest crack, yo! That's why this show really did deserve running more seasons than it ended up doing.
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 07:53 pm (UTC)I definitely want a subscription to 'Splits Magazine' heh heh And seriously Quinn WHY ARE SO YOU GAY REPRESSED? PLEZ JUST B GAY WITH ALL THE OTHER QUEERIOS ALREADY!!!
As for your meme...Glee of course! :D
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 08:18 pm (UTC)- that boy needs to get his act together, stat! And at this point, I'm just rolling my eyes at the amount of Finchel the show is trying to forcefeed us. Do not want.
*raises hand* I wouldn't mind receiving that magazine either? I am a pervert and I own up to it. ;P And, yes, Quinn really should embrace her inner queermo -- it'd be a whole lot healthier for her. Just sayin'.
My het OTP: Uh... erh... I don't mind Rachel/Puck together.
My slash OTP: Finn/Kurt, I guess?
My femslash OTP: One day it's Faberry, the next it's Brittana. ;3
My endgame OTP: Brittana, since the show is never going to give us canon Faberry. ;P
My original OTP: Faberry. :)
My crack OTP: Mike/Quinn lesbromance. I think they'd be hilarious together.
My guilty pleasure OTP: one-sided Dave/Kurt.
My anti-OTP: Finchel. They just don't... work, in my eyes.
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 09:52 pm (UTC)*raises hand* I wouldn't mind receiving that magazine either? I am a pervert and I own up to it. ;P
Anyone who doesn't perve over Rachel/Brittany/Quinn/Santana has something seriously wrong with them! lol jk But, really. lol
Mike/Quinn would be cute! I could see that. Plus Mike seems like the only decent guy on the show (besides Sam). I wish Quinn had stayed with Sam sometimes!
My slash OTP: Finn/Kurt, I guess?
Yeah if I HAD to choose something gay I'd choose those two. lol Or Kurt/Blaine but that's totally cannon.
Yay Faberry! ♥
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 10:04 pm (UTC)I have to say, I can only agree! ;D
Yep -- Mike and Sam are the only decent guys in that group. Hmm... I'd rather sacrifice Sam/Quinn if it means I can see me some Quinndependence. It's been sorely lacking. *like continuity and other things too cough cough*
I've read Finn/Kurt where the relationship worked, so I can definitely see it. I don't mind Kurt/Blaine at all -- I'm not a fan, but I'm not against them being an item. ;D
Faberry -- when a repressed cheerleader and an extremely zealous diva collide. :)

Date: 2011-07-02 10:02 pm (UTC)So! Let's do... Game of Thrones. Or Pretty Little Liars! Your choice. :D
no subject
Date: 2011-07-02 10:38 pm (UTC)Ooh, two fandoms! Which to pick, which to pick~... both of them. ;3
Game of Thrones:
My het OTP: Erh... hmm. I kind of enjoyed Arya/Syrio Forell (in a platonic way!) and Jorah/Dany has to potential the be interesting.
My slash OTP: Loras Tyrell/Renly Baratheon. Go go, Knight of Flowers. :P
My femslash OTP: ... does Daenerys/anyone with boobs count? Daenerys/Cersei, perhaps?
My endgame OTP: Daenerys/Sansa would be nice. But it ain't gonna happen. :P
My original OTP: Jon Snow/Samwell Tarly. Go ahead, laugh. Jon reads as being bisexual to me, for some reason...
My crack OTP: Tyrion Lannister/Sandor Clegane. Just... yeah.
My guilty pleasure OTP: Erh... don't think I have one. Viserys Targaryen/Drogo? :P
My anti-OTP: Drogo/Dany. Just not my cup of tea. :-/
& Pretty Little Liars:
My het OTP: Toby/Jenna. Yep. I'm not ashamed. ;P
My slash OTP: Erh... uh... erhm... Ezra/Lucas?
My femslash OTP: Emily/Paige. <3
My endgame OTP: Emily/Paige! :D
My original OTP: Spencer/Emily. ;3
My crack OTP: Actually, it isn't so much crack as it is basically canon (and if you don't agree, I'd like to hear what show you're watching): Mona/Hanna.
My guilty pleasure OTP: Alison/Emily.
My anti-OTP: I guess that'd be Emily/Samara or Emily/Maya.

Date: 2011-07-04 12:29 pm (UTC)Lol! So much yes to this! Mona (puppy eyes and wobbling bottom lip): Hanna, I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry! Be my girlfriend again, plz? I luv you! Funniest thing ever. ;3
They just didn't have any chemistry, imo. Otherwise I would def have shipped it. Whereas Paige/Emily on the other hand -- I ship it. I ship it real good! ;P
:D

Date: 2011-07-03 12:49 am (UTC)My het OTP: I will always be fascinated by Miki/Kozue.
My slash OTP: I found Mikage/Mamiya very intriguing. ;)
My femslash OTP: Oh man... I think Utena/Anthy win this one! :P
My endgame OTP: Utena/Anthy, of course! :)
My original OTP: Juri/Shiori. I guess they are my pairing to go to for ~true sadomasochistic love~. ;3
My crack OTP: Chu-Chu/Frog. Their luv is ~pure~. Or maybe Chu-Chu/Saionji. ;P
My guilty pleasure OTP: It isn't a guilty pleasure, but... Juri/Kozue.
My anti-OTP: Akio/Utena. It's skeevy, guys, in the... skeevy way. <.
