As what? A bank robber? A president? A philanthropist? A heroic passerby? A serial killer? A... newscaster?

Schmerg, that comment really just put the icing on the cake for me...too funny!!!

I also have a friend that's similar to your friend Reed. His name is James and we used to go around school and whenever we'd see each other between classes we'd say: "What's up B*tch?" Even THEN he didn't realize he was gay?! Hell I knew he was gay before he even figured it out. We used to get in so much trouble because we'd spend a majority of our creative writing class just quoting lines from the movie Drop Dead Gorgeous. "That's why we Lutherans use grape Kool-Aide for the blood of Christ..." (If you know what scene that's from...awesome!!)

Believe it or not we're still best friends and we graduated high school 5 years ago. I think that's pretty damn good considering 95% of the people you're in school with for 12 years you don't even speak to them after graduation.

Schmerg- Hahaha...awesome.

Tofu- DROP DEAD GORGEOUS IS ONE OF MY FAV MOVIES OF ALL TIME!!!! Soooooooo freakin funny. I made my ex watch it and he loved it so much that he went out and bought it the next day. We would text each other at random times and it would just say "Are we on cops?" or "Help Hank Help Help help"

Oh I got voted The Girl that Talks the Most and got the Big Mouth award in sixth grade. Yeah...dude...that has not changed. :)

I got voted "Preppiest", but that was in 1982. We were all popping our collars back then...

How many beads did you have on your add-a-bead, danmag?

Being a girl is a privilege!

CONS:
Washing dishes.
Cleaning house.
Doing loads, and loads, of laundry.

PROS:
We know how to lead, not follow.
We can be ourselves around each other.
We are CAREFUL DRIVERS!

Ha!

I think I only had about 6...But I had tons of those purses with the wooden handles that you buttoned the covers on. I wonder why they never made a come-back???

Lucious and Tofu, Drop Dead Gorgeous is one of my all time favorites! It's up there with Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion.

I think I had 5 or 7 beads......I always thought the odd number seemed to work better. I had a bunch of those purses too!

They were called Bermuda bags!

LOL you guys are too funny!

I just woke up from the best nap of my life! Now I'm just getting ready for AI tonight.

Drop Dead Gorgeous and Romy and Michelle are some of my favorite films.

I wasn't voted anything in high school..I was very average I guess.

[lusciouslace]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 7:18pm

I think I laugh at every single line from Drop Dead Gorgeous. I definitely like Romy and Michelle, too. But my other top one is The Sweetest Thing!!!

[StockardFan]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 7:34pm

I haven't seen DDG....I'll have to rent it next time my husband is out of town.

PS....I almost said "Stockard has never seen DDG..." Too much status thread I guess.

Newgirl, I'm also very sad about the cancellation of Life On Mars =[

Im still in denial about Pushing Daisies

I'm still so upset about PD.

A nap sounds so good, Shannon. I'm pumped for American Idol too, but I hate almost everyone in this group. It'll be a good way to vent, if anything. This season is just...ugh.

Re: all the above movies. Yes. Love them, especially Romy & Michelle. I think I know it by heart. And Drop Dead Gorgeous reminds me of a John Waters film...so hilarious. I haven't seen the Sweetest Thing in years, I might have to pull that out! I know I have it somewhere.

Our high school superlatives were oddly specific. I was voted most likely to be a commentator on VH1 (like on those I Love the ____ shows and countdowns), most likely to marry rich (let's hope that's true) and best smile (also because I have huge teeth, LOL blonde!). My best guy friend was voted least likely to win a superlative, which I thought was awesome.

Luscious, I swear we could make it to 5,000 posts just with lines from DDG.

"Peter's gay...GAY!!!"
"...Hey, where the hell is my WAITER?!"
"That communion wine just proves too temptin' for some..."
"A bunch of us are goin' cow tippin..."
"Speak English you stupid little retard..."
"Sidewalks Father Donaghan? Sidewalks?"

And Romy and Michelle? Don't even get me started on that!!! "Oh my God Ramone..."

Romy: You have absolutely no proof that you're cuter.
Michele: Oh, proof. You want proof? OK, fine. Who lost their virginity first?
Romy: Oh, big wow, with your cousin Barry. I wouldn't brag about it.

*sigh* today has been crazy.... The director of Grease (I'm assistant director) yelled at me in front of all the kids in the show because I met with cast members during lunch and did not tell him! It was so humiliating and I ended up crying in the bathroom... I now have a crying headache
I did end up costuming almost everyone in the cast today (which was amazing!) and I hung out with some of the awesome high schoolers after rehearsal and they made me feel better, but it still was a hard day.
I also hate the Ithaca City School District.

I'm sorry withoutlove! Doing shows can be so frustrating and drama-filled.

DDG:
"Best damn tapper, most smartest!"
"Good going Becky, she's anorexic." "She's skinny Amber, not deaf."

R&M:
"If anyone needs to make a call I got a phone!"
"It's like I've given birth to a baby girl, but she's a giant girl who smokes and says s*** a lot..you know?"

I'm sorry, withoutlove. I'm sure we've all been yelled at in public a time or two, it can be really embarrassing. At least the kids were there for you. Did you have your meeting about the school?

[clever name]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 8:41pm

aw, wu, that sucks. That was wrong of the director to yell at you in front of the kids. It should have been in private. He actually owes you an apology. But since that may never happen, you need to just take a breath and focus on the kids. I bet they love you!

I love Romy and Michelle!!

just returned from sitting at the spa for an hour waiting to get my nails done, then they took me to a seat. Than I sat there for an hour while no-one did anything. Then I was told my boyfriend thinks he's gay. Today was Awesome.

!!! How old are you, 25th? Sounds like it was a crappy day for everyone...

[Shannon Bo Dannon]

Posted: 3/3/09 at 8:57pm

25th! I'm so sorry!

[blondebaby589]

Then I was told my boyfriend thinks he's gay.

I can't tell you how many times that's happened to me...LOL but really that sucks I'm sorry 25th!

Btw, my sister and I know the entire dance that Romy and Michelle do. We only break it out on special occasions.
