I've been following Anna's Glee posts with interest and some facepalming at myself because of my own ability!fail. Like, I knew Finn and Puck were faking needing to use a wheelchair, but the extent of their fail - and Tina's, for faking her stutter - and what it meant to disabled/differently abled people didn't register with me until I read Anna's posts.

Also interesting in an "oh no" kind of way is how the faily comments mirror the same silencing techniques used in racefail and anti-feminist discussions.
