Some thoughts:

i will say, ive never wanted to jump through a TV to strangle a character as badly as I did with Chuck when he gave his asshole -coming-clean monologue.

Damn, those are some pretty extreme mental gymnastics in that first paragraph to try to justify the initial superior tone. It's much like some Tea Party loonball spouting how "liberals are the real racists!" Projection is fun. Glad to see you're still deciding what ought to offend me or not offend me, though. Because…
