you know why glee is ruining america? not because it has the gays in it, we all know the gays are fabulous and i think more happy, gay teens should be on tv, but because now it makes teenagers think they should express themselves in song more. what happened to terrible, furtive poetry readings? i had to sit through three musical interludes at the boychik's graduation; one of which was pretty okay, one of which was mediocre, and one that i hated but to be honest, it was a rascall flats song and i'm pretty sure nothing in their repertoire would have impressed me much. in any case, three of them was about three too many. also, when you first heard green day's longview did you ever think that one of their songs would become the go-to soundtrack for major life changes* or that they'd have a goddamn musical on broadway? seriously. we all thought they were stoner retard punks. they might still be, but some how they are also middle aged, like me. ...shudder...
*time of your life: it's good for funerals and graduations. i bet it also gets used a lot at rehab "graduations."
