Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd have been in our lives for almost 10 years now. We've sat through mass shootings, plane crashes, bomb detonations, and every other deadly problem you can think of. We've watched them separate conjoined twins, cure the incurable and kill the people with minor illnesses.
While we are absolutely obsessed with Grey's and still have it recording on our DVRs, there are so many plot lines and plot holes that make zero sense. We brush it off, but deep down these little things annoy us to no end. Like, how many times have they had a drink at Joe's and come back to perform major surgeries? Umm, hi, people get fired for serving food after having one drink, let alone performing surgery while tipsy.
I have taken the time to write all the random things over the last 11 seasons that make absolutely no sense for your enjoyment, so you can ponder and realize that this really is fiction in every way. I know you had your hopes and dreams on working at Seattle Grace one day, but these 19 things will remind you why the show is beyond unrealistic. P.S. Shonda Rhimes, I am still obsessed with you. So don't take this personally. You're my idol.
1. Denny Duquette ghost sex
I mean really? Izzie truly believed that she was having sex with a ghost? What kind of necrophilia is that?

2. Christina running a hospital
Yeah she's good, but is she really good enough to run a hospital alone? She was still a fellow when she accepted Burke's offer.

3. Is Izzie dead?
No really? She bailed on everyone and no one thought to check in on her and be like, "How is that cancer going?"

4. Meredith is actually the worst
We love her, but she's actually a huge d*ck and whines literally nonstop about her sexy husband and her cute kids. Like,get out of here.

5. Lexie and Mark dying
Of all the characters to kill off, you have to kill off the one couple that needed to end up together. You kill us,Shonda.

6. Everyone cheats
7. Each problem lasts FOREVER
Seriously, hey Arizona and Callie, have a baby or don't, but this has been an issue for like five years now.

8. Remind me not to move to Seattle
9. Especially if I have a minor cold
10. But terminal cancer all the way
11. Mass shootings and plane crashes…
... Don't happen to the same people within two years or ever. It would be like being struck by lightning three times.

12. Bailey gets the hottest men
It's a rude comment I know, but Bailey (who is not the most attractive human) pulls in the hottest men. The hot nurse? Have mercy.

13. These married couples
Every single couple on this show has some major conflicting argument that would never work in real life. If someone wants kids and someone doesn't, it's over. If someone is religious and lives by the Bible and the other person doesn't, it's over. Do you need Dr. Laura to spell it out for you?

14. Every character sucks
No really … which character have you liked consistently through the show? Besides Lexie because she was the best and she's dead.

15. Ellis Grey was a monster
16. Meredith didn't know her mom was pregnant?
17. No one hooked up with Jackson for like two seasons
Seriously, how is it even possible that no one wanted to have sex with Jackson immediately? It makes no sense that only three girls total have hit that.

18. The boat accident
This episode actually made me want to quit the show. Forever. Meredith was dead for like five hours.

19. That singing episode
You're not Glee, Callie can't hold a tune, there was no reason for this and I hate myself for sitting through it.
