The Top Ten Sue Sylvester Quotes from the First Season of Glee

James Hamel
Utterly outrageous, sinfully diabolical and deliciously condescending, Sue Sylvester is a track suit clad TV villain unlike any that have come before. Along with the hugely popular song and dance routines, Sue's classic verbal diatribes are the best part of watching the TV show "Glee" each week.

You do know what "Glee" is right? Unless you have been living under a bridge for the last year then you have no excuse to not know and love this wonderfully escapist television show. Sue Sylvester is the cheerleading coach at the fictional McKinley High School and it is her life's mission to destroy the glee club and most especially their leader Mr. Schuester.

Most of Sue's most demeaning and demoralizing rants are directed at Mr. Schuester but that is not to say she is afraid of commenting about the world in the most un-PC of terms. She is the true Archie Bunker of our generation.

So, in honor of "Glee" sweeping the Emmy's with a litany of nominations (including one for actress Jane Lynch who plays Sue), let's take a trip down memory lane to relive 10 of Ms. Sylvester's most classic comments. Let's hope that seasons 2 and beyond hold just as many evil rants as season 1.

"You know, for me trophies are like herpes. You can try to get rid of them but they just keep coming. Sue Sylvester has hourly flair ups of burning itchy highly contagious talent." -Sue to Will Schuester

Bryan: "Should I lock the door?"
Sue: "No, I got a secret room upstairs, like Letterman."

--Sue to Bryan Ryan (Neil Patrick Harris) right before they, um, well you know.

"Get ready for the ride of your life Will Schuester. You're about to board the Sue Sylvester Express. Destination: horror!"
--Sue to Will Schuester

"Will, I made a small diaper for your chin, because it looks like a baby's ass"
--Sue to Will Schuester (again)

"I'll often yell at homeless people: 'Hey, how is that homelessness working out for you? Try not being homeless for once."
--Sue during her Nightly News commentary "Sue's Corner."

"Oh hey there, William, I thought I'd smell cookies wafting from the ovens of your little elves that live in your hair"
--Sue to Will Schuester

Sue: "Iron tablet? It keeps your strength up when you menstruate."
Will: "I don't menstruate."
Sue: "Neither do I."

--Sue to Will Schuester in conversation

"You two really should have your own show on Bravo."
Sue to Mercedes (who is a sassy and proud African American woman) and Kurt (who is gay)

"I have to be honest, Will. I'm having a really difficult time hearing anything you have to say today because your hair looks like a briar patch. I keep expecting racist animated Disney character to pop up and start singing songs about living on the bayou."
--Sue to Will Schuester

Will: "I should shake your hand."
Sue: "Not unless you got some hand sanitizer. I've seen that car you drive. I don't want to catch poor."
