mel's got a post up at Bitch Magazine about it. The comments are kind of hit and miss. No idea how much that will change.

I have planned my final Glee post on my DW for Saturday. I haven't seen the episode yet, but unless everyone I've been reading is lying, I won't be subjecting myself week after week to this show in the vague hope that it will turn into "Mercedes & Kurt Be Awesome, with Singing".

I'll probably have a post or two out at FWD after that, but I'm so done.

	I'm surprised you've made it this far into the show. Keep up the good work at FWD! <3 Last edited 2009-11-13 01:56 pm UTC (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	3009 huh? And people are still talking about it! :) (which is to say: you got the date wrong on the first link, though I dare say most people will figure it out) (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)
