that show about rich white people and their terribly difficult lives
Gossip Girl thoughts
15:
- one non-white character, and she's the Asian stereotype. c'mon Nelly Yuki, rise above it!
- and okay I know this is a lulzy over the top TV show but this college subplot is so ridiculous.
- Nate and Vanessa, a vacuum of boring together. I'm glad I don't have to watch this on TV; then I couldn't skip all their scenes
- Jenny is annoying me so much
- Dan is such a patronizing douchebag. I hate his stupid duck pout face.
- poor Rufus. so many idiot children. god he's hot.
- Chuck loves family! I've decided this. he would've hung Serena out to dry or made her pay him back a billion times with interest before, but now that she's his step-sister he is covering for her.
- whoa Georgina is fucking crazy
16:
- Jenny is ANNOYING. she should not even try to pull off headbands. but not gonna lie, that yellow coat looks good on her.
- Rufus is :( because his daughter is super committed to being a horrid bitch
- Blair's mini-posse of non-white people show, please, MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT WHITE.
- that Eric kid is sort of weird looking. I don't know what it is. his neck is strangely long but there's also something else weird
- meta! Eric was rumored to be Gossip Girl, lollo
- aw, Chuck is checking up on Serena.
- Georgina is crazy.
- Jenny is ANNOYING. Eric, move on, let her dig her own stupid annoying grave in peace.
- Serena is so damn sunny and cute.
- does Rufus have any, like... friends?
- ah so that was a dude. Asher's face is not right. it's like... doughboy farmer. in a prep school uniform
- Jenny's pissy speech was incoherent. and ANNOYING.
- man I really like Lily and Rufus together. oh Rufus, you read her emails? you didn't just go to her myspace or whatever?
- non-white person! Mark (Marc?) Abrams, jewelry designer.
- Dan is a terrible actor. why did it take me so long to notice? he only has like three things he can do with his face.
- surprisingly this show has good continuity.
- I love Lily and Rufus together.
- so... does that mean Nelly Yuki's previous personality is gone? she's just the stand-in for Kati next to Isabella? (I totally thought it was 'Connie' before; whoops :d)
- MYSTERIOUS TAPE OF SOMETHING THAT SOUNDS LIKE DATE RAPE
- Jenny is an annoying brat, but she is right about Dan being fucking judgey.
- OH SHIT! I TOTALLY DID NOT SEE THAT COMING. ERIC AND ASHER.
- Lily, that was a terrible reaction. :(( Eric!
- Fucking Jenny. Taymom gets too much fucking mileage out of that fucking sulky face.
- poor Eric. he has to put up with doughboy farmer on top of all that. you deserve better! even if your face is kind of weird! (side note: calling him E is too much like Entourage. E =mc^2 Eric Murphy )
- and aw, Chuck talking to Eric. he loves fambly damnit.
- Blair, you fabulous gorgeous bitch.
- Georgina is craaaaaaaaaaazy. I can tell this is going to be an annoying subplot with Dan being all huffy and distrusting
- Blair, KNOCK A BITCH OUT.
- oh I just realized why this episode felt so long! no Nate scenes to skip over!
17:
- what is it about Chuck? he's got that ~something. I - I kind of love him. he's such a malicious smarmy diva.
- LOLOL I love the way he stands in the elevator. ~lean
- okay, what the FUCK is Nate's fucking problem? he doesn't even LIKE Blair. they were BROKEN UP when she got with Chuck. is he seriously just mad because he pissed all over her and Chuck didn't ~respect that? I HATE HIM.
- Chuck skeezing all over Serena's shower of drunken crisis, LOL.
- shut the fuck up, NATE.
- *sigh* Lily and Rufus. I love them. They should be together. *crazy*
- "Don't you all hate each other?" "Yes." "Absolutely." (stfu, NATE) "No." (bagel Chuck!)
- how do people get into Blair's apartment? shouldn't they need a key or to be announced or something?
- Dan irks me.
- I like Team Take Care of Serena.
- four marriages is a lot of marriages. I want to make some sort of Four Weddings and a Funeral joke but I don't know why or how.
- Dorota!
- "Where do you have to go?" "To do something I've had to do too many times before." Everyone: oh okay then. :) lol television.
- Dan is a judgmental prick, okay, Serena, don't stress about him!
- oh well when you put it THAT way, Nate, you're just sooo qualified to hold a grudge against Blair and Chuck, aren't you?
- "I'm Chuck Bass." LOLOL.
- oh Serena. :((( bb, you didn't kill anyone. don't be dumb. Blake Lively did a good job there.
- but yeah, Dan wouldn't understand because he's a pretentious douchebag.
- Lily, don't freak out! you freaked out!! arrggg Lily how is that exactly that last thing Serena needs to hear? This show is making me stupid.
- I truly like Serena and Blair's friendship.
- god FINALLY, Nate does something useful.
- OH SHIT, BLAIR + CHUCK + COMMON ENEMY = YESSSSSSSSS. ULTIMATE power couple!
- "With friends like these, who needs armies?" YESSSSSSSSSSSS
- the resolution to the Pete death guilt complex is ridiculous but I am still enjoying it. Pete was a cokehead! parents say of course it wasn't your fault! hugs for everyone!
- Lily is so classy looking. Chuck helps her put on her coat!
- Georgina is craaaaaaazy. what the fuck ever, Dan.
- LOLL, Blair is adorable. "I-I'm a big Leaky Hawk fan." pearls~

- "you maNIPULATIVE PSYCHO BITCH!!!" yessssss om nom nom
- Serena is a giant goddess. she is so so pretty.
- willful denial
- Bart doesn't have a personality. he came right out of the Stern Bald Businessman factory.
- Blair is as pretty as a picture. a really pretty picture. *__________*
- GOD BLAIR, YES.
- oh Rufus.
- OMG BLAIR STRAIGHTENED CHUCK'S BOWTIE THEN CHOKED HIM WITH IT AND KICKED HIM. THAT WAS LIKE PORN. CHUCK AGREES. OH GOD I LOVE THAT GIRL.
- man the girls are just gift-wrapped for this wedding.
- RUFUS AND LILY. C'MONNNNNNN. I DON'T KNOW. OH MAN. TWENTY YEARS IN THE MAKING!!
- oh godddddddd I love them. I love them. I love them together. Rufus and Lily. just always I love themmmmmmmmm.
- oh shit he said it! he WAS in love with Blair? bitch, please.
- DAN YOU FUCKING DICKHEAD. Look at this beautiful girl fucking crying over you, and you basically jerk off? "I am the most understanding guy in the world." WRONG. SO WRONG. UGH YOU ASSHOLE.
- "I don't know how to make things go back to the way they were." You're not even trying, you little bastard.
- poor Blake Lively. She's had to cry so much in the past few episodes.
- what a dickhead.
- "You don't belong with Nate. Never have, never will."
"You don't belong with anyone."
that was a perfect moment. perfectly written, perfectly done.
- "Chuck Bass is a romantic. Who knew?"
"Now you do. That's all that matters." oh my god. oh my god. this is so perfect. oh my god.
- the music goes so well with this.
- I would be fine with single people staying single but Josh Schwartz hates that. everyone must be matchy matchy all the time. keep Nate off my fucking screen Jschwartz.
- nooooo Bass Dad! heavy-handed much???
- CHUCK BASS. *laughs* What can you say to that?
2x02:
- Dan is the worst person. what a smarmy pretentious dickwad
- Nate is boring and stupid and boring and stupid
- I like Serena and I think she's super cute, but she is so stupid about guys. and since that's kind of the only thing happening in her life, besides being Blair's frond and occasional three minute conversations with Eric, she is just stupid. argggggggggg
- LOL Chuck is cracking me up.
- I do not for one second believe that anyone in the fucking world could be ~overwhelmed by the desire to sex up Dan fucking Humphrey. that Hampton bus scene was ridiculous.
- oh Chuck! omg
- Tanya Donelly! I know her!
- "I thought you were just a callow social-climbing former swimsuit model who married above her station only to be enslaved by her own insecurities. But now that I've seen you rolling around the floor with my adolescent ex, I understand that you have a compassionate side too." Blair, how I love you.
note on le Bass: Chuck has like no morals, but he has loyalty and he loooooongs for Blair. thank god he's a fictional character. oh man, Chuck/Blair foreverrrrrrrr!! *CRAZY*
note on life: I kind of don't respect anyone who likes Dan or Nate. hahaha IF ONLY I WERE KIDDING >((((

conclusion, dan and nate are stupid and boring
Chuck, like, date rapes the entire television audience through the series. First you're like "EW RAPIST" and then it's like "LOL RAPIST" and then it's like "LOL ILU... WAIT YOU'RE A RAPIST D:" and then you just LOSE YOUR DAMN MIND and enjoy the Chuck. I don't know. I DON'T KNOW. He wears you down with GHB and his hilarious diva/daddy issues and before you know it you're just waiting for him to show up and make the show interesting. It's fun to watch him struggle with "HUMAN EMOTIONS" and he's so GOOD at being fabulously immoral.
The idea of Dan as meta-commentary of the show is interesting, because his anger at Serena not telling the truth during the Georgina arc did NOT objectively make sense, and that could be a writing flaw. But at the same time, Dan had already been set up as being this judgmental prick who has stupid expectations for people, so his retarded behavior makes sense for his character. Is he SUPPOSED to be so insufferable?? Sometimes the show seems aware that Dan is hated for being such a prick (like the report on what people are saying about their break-up on the message boards in 2x03)... but why is he still presented as a protagonist? To be honest I think his character serves no function except to annoy. Jenny is more interesting, for gods sakes. JENNY! He is fucking redundant as a 'guide'; the show goes so over the top in crafting the super-rich, super-insular world of the Upper East Siders that his snide comments on how much better he is as a person because he's only super super upper middle class instead of filthy rich are not illuminating; they're pretentious. Jenny shows the contrast between Mere Mortals and MANHATTAN'S ~ELITE way more effectively. But, okay, I'll give Dan credit for being part of the plot device to get Rufus and Lily in each other's lives again. I LOVE THEM. I DON'T CARE. OMG TWENTY YEARS IN THE MAKING.
Nate is an idiot and I hate him. Ahaha I have nothing else to say. They gave him no personality right from the start (except for being a callous dick to his girlfriend) so I'm not surprised to hear that they drag him through a billion different storylines that don't make sense. I don't know how anyone could relate to him. He is such a sack of nothing. Boring, stupid nothing. That's what happens when you plant a Zac Efron clone in your show! NO ONE KNOWS WHY HE'S THERE. POINTLESS DRAMA ALL THE TIME.
