To explain... I was not talking about viruses (although I had one from a post here and it's a valid concern), only that I want to know where I'm going - in most cases because I know some sites have annoying ads or pop-ups etc. that freeze my computer - or that I have clicked and read some articles already (and don't have time to do it twice). It seems to me that you're asking the folks who bring over info to do more work. Folks often check out the links they see on twitter and post more info with the tweet. I wouldn't insist that they do this, though. It's time consuming. the conversation has probably moved on, but I agree with belle; I prefer to know where I'm going before I click on a link. If someone posts a "omg you've got to see this!" then an URL that doesn't indicate what site it's going to, I won't click. Maybe I'm paranoid but I have gotten too many viruses by clicking on things that have taken me places I don't want to go. |

Relieved to see that others were disturbed or puzzled by the plot line of a high school boy hooking up with the school nurse. Yes, I think she is still a student nurse, but.... totally skeevy and a big no-no. In real life, if a student teacher were to get involved with a high school student, they would be pulled out of the assignment and probably kicked out of the teacher prep program. I think it is interesting that it is a male student. If it were a female, I think there would be an outcry from the moral police. I know that GLEE is a soap opera and not known for its ornate plot lines, but I wonder why Ryan went there. He usually includes plots that challenge conventional cultural rules and prejudices, but I don't get why he would want to be on this side of this issue. I wasn't outraged. Just kinda an EWWWWWW factor. Hi all, well I didn't want to mention my feeling about this before now with all the flailing about Glee/Adam. But I totally agree with what many are saying here about the Ohio plot. And another thing that REALLY disturbs me is IMHO, it seems like they are objectifying the girls in very unhealthy ways. What I mean, is the show seems to be saying to the audience that it is OK to find other girls to have sex with if your GF doesn't want to, OK to have a relationship with the school nurse who to me seems somewhat like an authority figure regardless of the age, OK to discriminate and bully a girl for not wanting to wear seashells and etc. It really does disturb me. Girls are not play toys for boys to prick and ogle at every second, and this is the message I fear the boys are getting from this. I love that Glee bends genders, physical limitations and other social norms. But this sleezy objectification of the girls is too much. I wish a show would talk about that and show more respect. Why doesn't Glee raise awareness about this problem females face in this regard if they try to cover current issue. OR, maybe I am just an old fuddy-duddy. Or perhaps I am a hypocrite since I sort of "ogle" Adam at times. So is turnabout fair play? Or is the pendulum in society just SO tilted toward the females. Anyway, at the very least a subject to be explored. Or, just get more hunky guys on TV in skimpy outfits, so females can objectify them the way society does the females. OK, done with my venting now:-))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Back to the awesomeness that is Adam. |

I've always thought Lea Michele might have a RL crush on Adam. I know she sang at the Upright Cabaret in 2008. She might know him from there. As for the Glee revelation, Elliot might be related to Dani (Demi). One of the Glee spoilers said that Elliot was very close to Dani. I think you're right I read that Adam and dani are related a while back.Sister and brother?? That comment was out there...but I honestly think we would have had some tid-bit placement of information/recognition between the two that the two are related even in this past episode. Kurt had no contact information for him... Dani would have spoken up. That does not negate a future close "relationship"...(meaning even vgood friends) building between Dani and Elliott...as I could see writers building that chemistry.  I prefer a hidden Kurt fantasy with Elliott...that Kurt recognizes as not being reciprocated by Elliott, leading to issues VERSUS any actual relationship with anyone... other than a new cast member.  chunkey....a crazy fun read girl!!!! You do yourself proud with your creativity! |

It seems to me that you're asking the folks who bring over info to do more work. Folks often check out the links they see on twitter and post more info with the tweet. I wouldn't insist that they do this, though. It's time consuming. the conversation has probably moved on, but I agree with belle; I prefer to know where I'm going before I click on a link. If someone posts a "omg you've got to see this!" then an URL that doesn't indicate what site it's going to, I won't click. Maybe I'm paranoid but I have gotten too many viruses by clicking on things that have taken me places I don't want to go. I would think that it is a lot less work to give the original link which is what belle is asking for. The problem is that some of the original links don't work as links in Atop because the Atop site does not recognize some characters which are legal characters in web links. In that case, the first part of the link shows up as clickable but it does not go to the correct site because the full web address is not in the clickable part. All one has to do is copy the entire link and paste it into the web address field on a browser page. But some people do not recognize that this is the issue, so then there are several posts that the link does not take you to the right place. So some people avoid this by using some web site conversion tool which will take the original address and convert into a shorter address which works in Atop. (I have yet to find this site, so someone please post the link!) Anyway, what belle is asking for is that people post the original web link, which is the easiest thing to do anyway. Then if you want, you can go get the short web link conversion and post it in addition to the original web link that does not show up correctly as a full link address. Or just do like me and include in your post a short statement that one needs to copy & past the web link into a web browser address bar. It is actually the step of getting the short web link that is extra work. |

Can we plz guess what will he reveal ? The curiosity is killing me !!!!!!! Like , what COULD he reveal ? He's Gay ? Doesn't seem like that much of a revelation , specially on Glee , LOL !! Like , I mean being gay is pretty normal in that show , no biggie . How about he reveals he is NOT gay? That would be quite surprising!  That's exactly what I was thinking when I first read Kamars question. Or maybe that he has a huge crush on Dani, but of course, he can't have her, since well... She's gay. |
