Glee is Gay? Who Knew. Bret Easton Ellis Explains.

Thanks to the Superficial, I get tons of news about people and events that I wished were flushed down a toilet and into the oozing tide of the North Pacific "Great Garbage Patch." Instead, Jersey Shore continues to breed and ensemenate Teen Mom, even if the two should have been sterilized at birth.

However, without Superficial, I wouldn't be privy to such commentary as this from Bret Easton Ellis (author of Less than Zero, American Psycho).
“I like the idea of Glee but why is it that every time I watch an episode I feel like I’ve stepped into a puddle of HIV?”
Wow. Just. Wow.

Let be begin to applaud and decry this comment at the same time, in inverse order.

Let me decry it, because, well, HIV (according to South Park) is funny now because it's been long enough since it came up, but still a "go-to" remark to garner attention. Much as if I said, "Faggots watch Glee."

See what I did there?

But let me turn around and also applaud Bret Easton Ellis for saying something that people don't say anymore… what they think.

We live in a world that is slowly being crippled by the suffocating voice of political correctness. We don't use the term P.C. anymore, because everyone under the age of 25 has drank the P.C. Kool-Aid (see another euphemism that's slightly inappropriate), calling people who critique anything, "Haters."

Our soft under-belly of insecurity and flame wars has rendered our country impotent and purile. Frankly, I'm embarrassed by it all. And if Muslim had any common sense, or understood this phenomenon just a little, they would just wait out our slow, decaying, demise instead of flying planes into our buildings.

But I digress.

Glee is a shit-box of mediocrity, cloaked in superficiality and swathed in the edifice of sexuality so demonstratively inappropriate, that the metro-sexuals on the show appear macho. (Not that I've ever seen it.)

The mere utterance of its name in anything but a pejorative suggests a level of brain-damage that cannot be corrected without trepanation. Seriously. If you watch this show, go buy a drill. But use a drop-cloth, lest you spill HIV all over the carpet.

Let me be clear here. The gayness isn't what's inappropriate. I don't care who or what you ****. It's your penis/vagina/man-trap. Do what you want with it. What's demonstratively inappropriate is that a show SOOO devoid of context or value has little sissy characters talking about nothing but hooking up in-between choir practice and hooking up. I get it. Kids talk about sex. They are fascinated by it. Glee makes you feel good for being fat and gay and lesbian and Asian. Woohoo. What ever happened to just feeling good for being human. Is that so complex? This show needs an enema. Wait. It would probably be into that.

Not that I've seen the show.
