verbicide | finally, a new topic!

I can live with all the ridiculous medical premises and sex-opera crap. But sometimes what makes me so insanely angry is how fucking unreasonable everyone is about everything!

Izzie: Blabs completely thoughtlessly and indiscreetly to George's mom, and goes completely against George's wishes and convinces George's parents to pick Burke. Not that George's comment to Izzie was nice, but I would have said a lot worse at that point. Because omfg, get the fuck out of parent's room and stay out of it. Especially when I asked you to!! And the whole, 'No, you don't get to talk to me about Denny again. Ever." --it would have been unforgivable if she hadn't clearly softened at the end. And this way, only really irritated me. She continues to not have learned a thing from that experience. I love Izzie and she's my favorite intern (next to George) but she has to stop being completely ruled by her feelings. ARGH.

Meredith: Instead of blabbing that Cristina is her best friend, she should have explained to Derek that she'd only learned about Burke seconds before and was still sort of in shock and didn't know how to say anything in the middle of that crap. Not the whole, "she's my best friend and was there for me when you weren't, and that totally justifies my keeping her secret that Burke has a major breach of ethics going on."

And Burke. It's hard because I'm struggling to keep my anger with Isaiah Washington separate. I really hope they fire him. Who the fuck thinks referring to a co-worker as a faggot is something even remotely acceptable. And fuck Shonda Rimes and the production company for not taking immediate action on this. I don't care if it was just in a fit of temper. A comment like that really shows a lack of character there. It wouldn't matter how angry I was, there's no way I would even think of using that word. How okay would it have been for Ellen Pompeo to call him a nigger? Equally ugly and unacceptable words as far as I'm concerned, national homophobia be damned.

I know it's a stupid tv show, and all --but I really hope he's fired. Even at this late-date, because I hate him now.

Back to Burke. What a complete ass. Yes, Cristina kept pushing him. But she's an intern without the perspective Burke had. He knew how wrong it was. He wanted it, so he let himself be talked into it. And now he wants to shove that blame onto her? And how could he have gone on this long letting her work herself to the bone and take such incredible pressure on herself? What an asshole.

I did feel bad for Callie. Who did fuck things up by pushing too hard too fast and demanding too much and then stomping off in a rage when George needed time. And then sending all kinds of mixed messages by cuddling up to his family. I wouldn't want the woman who just broke my heart and then fucked another guy at our mutual place of work anywhere near my family.

PERSONAL SPACE, PEOPLE!

But really, I felt the worst for George. It's easy to say that the right thing to do would have been to tell someone in authority, because as George himself notes, "Other people in this hospital have fathers, too." But I think he was hoping to lean on Cristina enough to make her own up to it herself, which is always preferable. As sweet-natured as he generally is, I was glad to see him finally push back and say, "NO. I need some time or space or whatever. Me, I need it. Go over there for now."

Also, if Alex and Addison have anything going on at any point, I will projectile vomit.

That is all.
