Glee.

Glee makes me feel stupid.
I know I'm supposed to like it, but I don't. what's wrong with me? Am I broken? I seem to be the only human on planet Earth that really doesn't like this show at all.
I'm not being facetious when i ask: what am i missing? What am I obviously not understanding?
Look, I love the music, it's awesome! Though, out of the 4 episodes i've watched, i haven't seen one performance that looks believable and not horribly lip-synced. Is it the shtick factor that people enjoy so much? Is is supposed to be funny bad?
I tried. I tried SO hard to like it. But i can't seem to make that happen. In all honesty, I really can't stand that show. that makes me feel stupid.
Jane Lynch bothers me. I don't know why, but she sends chills of creepiness down my spine. I wish i could explain why. She just makes me feel dirty. and her character is so completely over-the-top. i guess they all kind are, aren't they? is that why people like it so much?
Ugh. If you love the show, I consider you more intelligent than me.

I even toured the Glee set last summer when I was in LA. It was fun, but when i went home and watched the pilot again, i still didn't like it.
It's actually pretty raunchy, isn't it? That's something that leaves me feeling unsettled and gross too. Maybe I've transformed into a prude. eh.

So for the last two months, every time i log into Facebook, it suggests that i be friends with this guy:
Of course I remember him from church and school, but i don't want to be "friends" with him. He was never very nice to me, and i doubt he'd remember me anyway. Besides, he's my age and he's still wearing his letterman jacket in his profile picture...creepy, weird and lame.
Reaffirming my unbridled stupidity, I found out today that he stars on Glee. yeah, I've watched 4 episodes and I never recognized him, even though I'd been staring at his picture every time I log into fb for the last three months!
I still don't care to "friend" him and I still find the show to be life-draining (though call me if Marky-Mark is ever on!). But i find it incredibly ironic that the show I hate the most is the one show on tv with someone i once knew, the one set we happened to walk through this summer, and it's the one show that friggin' everyone is talking about. *sigh*
I couldn't find my old yearbooks and I'm not about to waste more than 5 minutes looking for them, but I easily found this old church photo. Please to enjoy all you crazy Glee fans.
