The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part eight- Page 150

Mel, can you please stop complaining? I swear I've never heard someone whine about everything so much. You probably could have just turned down the job if you hated it so much. In addition, I certainly never received $10/hour when I babysat for three children. I often had to stay up until 12 AM with them, and I played games and interacted with them.

I'm sorry, I realize this is hostile, but please. stop. I swore that I was going to pop a blood vessel when you complained about not being able to attend the OBC concert (trust me, you could have it worse -- you could be living in North Dakota, like me), but I tried to be generally nice. Seriously, be grateful that you've scored a job. You'll probably come out of the night $40 or so richer and you'll see, in retrospect, it was worth it.

Sarah, correction! In the Baby-sitters Club movie the girls were still only 13! Kristy had her 13th birthday during the movie. I'm not sure about the TV series, though.

ETA: Wow, rude... okay, going back to my movie, I think.

Allie, I meant that the actresses were like in their 20s.

I'm not complaining, but whatever if all of you hate me so much I won't post here anymore.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:31pm

You're not complaining?

They were in their TWENTIES? oy.

...That's a bit melodramatic, don't you think? Or very. No one said anything remotely close to that, Mel. She pointed something out to you in a constructive way, and wouldn't you rather someone confront you with something that's been bothering them?

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:35pm

They definitely weren't 13.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:36pm

Allie, I apologize if you feel I was rude, but I personally think it's a lot more rude to complain about a job that you've agreed to, especially considering most people get paid a lot less than that. Not to mention complaining on here all. the. time about God knows what.

I think I read one Babysitters' Club book and didn't like it that much. I didn't care for the Boxcar Children series, either. I'm weird!

I was never a fan of those book series either.

There's a new thread on the Rent IMDb board about going weak in the knees over Adam's eyelashes.

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:42pm

I love your IMDb updates Chloe. They just reinforce my not wanting to join the IMDb boards.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:42pm

LOL, Chloe. Aww. They're pretty.

[sweetestsiren]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:43pm

You are weird, Lexi! But I love you.

My project over winter break was going to be rediscovering some of the books that I loved in elementary school, but I only reread one (The Westing Game, which is brilliant). Maybe I'll try again over the summer.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:48pm

Sarah, there's been far worse than that on this thread, believe me.

ETA: Well, not *this* thread - I'm thinking back to the first couple ones. Updated On: 3/25/06 at 08:48 PM

aww I love Adam's eyelashes lol..Thanks for the IMDB update Chloe.

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:49pm

Yes, I suppose your right. I believe I may also be a culprit of some of it :P

[Billboard Girl]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:49pm

Well, he does have really pretty eyelashes.

Ooh, The Westing Game! I love that book, and I remember reading it over and over when I was younger and wishing I could be as utterly cool as Turtle Wexler.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:50pm

I heart you too, Ash.

I really loved (and still love) Charlotte's Web. I swear that that book is at least subconsciously partially responsible for a good chunk of vegetarians out there. I also loved The Giver (which is probably more "young adult fiction").

Heh, I'll stop before we guide this thread down the book discussion path again!

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:51pm

What are books?

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:52pm

Hah, Sarah. Read! It's good for you!

I'm pretty sure I discussed the merits of Raul and Adam's chest/stomach hair earlier today, so I can't exactly comment negatively on the eyelashes topic.



Whee!

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:52pm

Heh, we had to read "The Giver" for English in 7th grade. It was kind of weird, but I liked it. I remember having a big class discussion over how we interpreted the ending, and I was surprised at how many people took the pessimistic view of what happened.

[sweetestsiren]

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:52pm

Charlottes Web makes me SO SAD. I love the cartoon movie, too.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 8:55pm

The book and cartoon movie always made me cry. Heh, I still remember the four words/phrases she spun into her web.

Jessica, we naturally had that discussion as well in class. Lowry (the author) is on record for saying that she interprets it as a happy ending, but she also feels that the reader should interpret it the way he or she wants to. I personally saw it as a happy one, but there's a strong case for both interpretations.
