seriously gleeking out

okay so while watching glee, i go through an entire spectum of emotions. allow me to recap the episode in the most loquacious way possible.

first, im freaking the eff out because none other than the great william joel is being featured on the show. as puck sings his song 'only the good die young' im dancing like a psychotic gypsy around the apartment and singing along. just in case you dont know, which im guessing you dont, billy joel is my all-time favorite artist on the globe. i would sell a kidney to go to one of his concerts. yeah. im that kind of obsessed.

second, kurts dad falls dramatically to the ground in his car shop or wherever he works. (what does he do again?) next scene zooms in on kurts heartbroken face as they tell him that his dad has suffered a heart attack. while burt hummels heart is attacking, my heart is breaking. the look on kurts face.. no fabulous gay man should have to go through pain like that. (yes i realize this is a tv show but i sympathize with fabulousity and gay men. i love them both.)

anyways blahdiblah rachel sings an annoying song about papas and mamas and not the molesting john phillips kind. OH I WENT THERE. its basically just lea michele fufilling her two-song-an-episode contract with the show and the entire time, im just waiting for her overdramatic and over-synthesized solo to end. seriously, that girl rubs me a certain way and its alll wrong. just cant stand her. blearghh

also, through the entire episode, finn the jock is utterly convinced that hes found a direct line to god through an overcooked grilled cheese sandwich he's dubbed "grilled cheezus." way to go finn. youve found a name so cleverly obvious and totally wierd at the same time. at least he's worshipping a tasty food and not a bag of pork rinds or an overly ripened avocado.

fast-forward to the typical swaying-and-screaming-in-the-aisle black baptist church (stereotypes are fun, arent they?) kurt, dressed in his sun-gay best listens to mercedes belt out 'bridge over troubled water.' i swear the girl has got more pipes than the sewage system of chicago. its very heartwarming to see kurt start to warm up to religion. or maybe he just looks that happy because of all the big black women's church hats.

back at the hospital, after a truly heartwrenching childhood reminiscing, kurts dad's hand twitches! he is comatose no longer! praise be to chanel almighty!

after everything winds down, the club de glee sings 'what if god was one of us' a song that kindof freaks me out to begin with but when they are all dressed in white with spotlight halos dancing on their heads it just gets a little too creepy. and to top off the show, in the most dramatic way possible, finn does the unthinkable.. HE EATS THE MESSIANDWICH!!! (the more cheesy and buttery cousin of the traditional eucharist) hopefully this just means that he will resorb christs healing and magical powers in order to get New Directions a freaking first place win next season. cause they did so badly at sectionals. i mean really its just sad.

that was my gleekout. hope you enjoyed.
