Say "Hello" to my Evil Twin!- Page 2

Eddie/Edie... I've had 3 personas for years. Most of my friends and colleagues have met them at various times.

Pati- the "professional", always politically correct and takes care of everything and everyone in propper fashion, as best a possible.


PENNY!@#$- my evil counterpart, who takes care of all the dirty business I need to do including rotating heads and spewing green. I hold no responsibility for her!

..and ~JENNY~ the "tipsy gypsy"- whom only my close friends know. The one who always conveniently has lasps of memory ,,,but always come up smiling and never tells.


It's get's kinda scary when they all get phone calls and e-mails.

Paula is ever so tired of shelling out $75 bucks for a pedicure every time she flies and has to remove her shoes at the security station.

Theatre related:

Ashley Judd on stage. ever.
The fact that Marion Seldes isn't the toast of Broadway and Melanie Griffith is.
Yentas with hearing difficulties (WHAT DID SHE SAY???!!!!)
Sondheim detractors (Thanks, Sam)--I'm married to one, and it kills me.

Non-theatre
I'm too upset. More later.....

Roberta hates:

The raising of chorus boy/girl to the level of sainthood. Once upon a time, members of the chorus simply took pride in their function in a show.

The lack of true acting skills in many Broadway musicals.

The lack of creativity in the casting of Broadway shows.

certain BWW posters who leave after running out of inane and controversy for controversy's sake things to post, then continue to lurk in a desperate bid for people to ask "what ever happened to them?"...bleech!

Kristofer Beaten hates

- people who chew gum (or anything) for that matter, loudly. Especially in a theatre.

- people who don't turn their cellphone to silent, or off at concerts, speeches, and theatrical productions

- people who take public displays of affection too far (i.e. making out and groping at the subway station)

- people who claim to know everything about a topic, and clearly have no clue. (i.e. "How big is your laptop's hard drive?" "60 gig" "oh, that's nice... mine is 1000 gig.")

- people who hold pretentions about something because they think it's fashionable... (i.e. "I don't drink any wine with a residual sugar over 0. Sweet wine makes me ill. Blech.")

...perhaps more to come.

Solo CD's from people who SHOULDN'T have a solo CD..

Do we really need another version of "Storybook"?

[robbiej]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:17pm

People who think they're interesting enough to fill 45-minutes in a cabaret room.

Very few people are that interesting.

robbie, who'll be playing the Duplex this fall.

OH WAIT! Sh*t...this is Roberta talking.

Guys who came up with the term barebacking and think it's cute.

[bta212]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:27pm

Do we actually blame the people who came up with the phrase????

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:28pm

People who buy CDs from solo artists who shouldn't have CDs.
People who go to 45 minute cabaret shows.
People who think the duplex is Aunt Helen's house in Hoboken.
Oops, never mind

people who think they know you and have no friggin' clue who and what you are but proclaim loudly all the reasons they think you do what you do

George Bush (there, I've said it and I'm proud)

Eddie's (not Edie's) busy schedule and the fact that he can't seem to keep up with his social engagements :)

People who use their religion to justify their bigotry

ATM fees

REALITY TV

Hot Pink and Lime Green

[bta212]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:37pm

ATM fees? Really? As much as George Bush?

[Unknown User]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:40pm

The fact that everything gets defined in terms of money.

[Kelliexo90]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 1:56pm

Ashlee Simpson

The little signs in the back of the record store at the mall that say "Broadway SOUNDTRACKS"

The smell of pot..


and a lot more.

I hate when I'm just getting in my groove with an hot sexy icon Edie posts here, and then she changes it before I'm done.

Updated On: 8/2/04 at 01:59 PM

[EddieVarley]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 2:24pm

Edie hates Eddie's fickle icon posting whims also, so this one will stay for a bit!

Oh and all the people who work at the Theater District Broadway trinket shops, Edie don't likey them..they all act like THEY star in the freaking shows, all I wanna do is walk in and buy a friggin' The Boy From Oz poster for my Aunt Georgie for screws sake!

[robbiej]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 2:30pm

Your Aunt Georgia wants a BFO poster?

Then Roberta don't like your Aunt Georgie.

[SamIAm]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 2:43pm

NO...George I hate more than ATM fees...but just sayin'...ATM fees are silly. First they tell us that ATMs will save us money because they will save on teller time and expenses and THEN they charge us $1.75 to take money out of our own account.

ALSO...theater related:

Really bad show graphics and advertising

Stunt casting,

Melanie Griffith,

Robert Goulet (who really needs to retire for God's sake) and

Michael Crawford (OK, there are people out there who like him, but I'm not one of them)

Non-theater related:

prescription drug commercials that don't tell you what the freakin' drug is for and then tell you to ask your doctor if it's right for you

Stupid cell phone ring tones (mexican hat dance, skater's waltz)

People who don't let you get off the elevator before they try to get on -- what is THAT about?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 2:45pm

Sam - your elevator peeve also works for the subway.

[EddieVarley]

Posted: 8/2/04 at 2:50pm

ditto on the mexican hat dance ring tone, heard it just yesterday, and the guy who had the phone was wearing capri pants, hate them too!
