Nope a mensch is someone you can count on - a real solid person. Definitely a compliment. I would go with nebish. That means nerd, geek.

"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Basically any child character in any musical every written. Annie, Oliver, et all. I loathe them.

and Raoul from POTO. He ruins EVERYTHING the phantom has planned. Stupid basard.

I'm only responding to this with characters you're not supposed to hate because in terms of characters like Morrible(played by the amazing Carole Shelley) it's more I love to hate. Okay:

Adult Cosette-lots has been said about her.
Rauol-I was gonna be the first to say him, Phantom Tenor, oh well. In addition to getting in the way, he's just a total bore compared to the Phantom.

Maria(WSS)-okay I don't completely hate her, but she is way too perfect and is basically the cause of most of the deaths in the show and really doesn't think.

Maybe I'll think of more later.

One more note: Shipoopi isn't the greatest sung song, and the Music Man is certainly not one of my favorite songs, but there's two things I must defend: 1) Shipoopi dance #1 is extremely difficult to play and 2) Shipoopi dance #3 was an awesome song to play and most of the pit's favorite and we sounded really good on it, so I think it's a good number because of pit. Okay, end rant.

The entire Bye, Bye, Birdie chorus. WAY too much screaming.

Er, just to say because I was just in it, Mrs. Linde in A Doll's House.

Monty, in Violet. What's his deal?

The American in Chess - I don't care if your father thinks your queer, doesn't mean you can go around being an ass. And he can sing higher than me.

Frankie Epps in Parade. GAH! Gorgeous music though.
Jim Conley in Parade. I really hate that character. 'Twould be fun to play though.

I don't think I've ever hated a character because he/she get's on my nerves, etc. I always take it as character and not how he/she is written.

That's a lie.
Eponine and Amneris are two women that GET ON MY NERVES because they are poorly written.

The others I just can't really sympathize with them, and perhaps that's the way writers/directors want it. But I do like the characters.


Personally, I think I have too much bloom.

Mimi, Maureen, and especially Benny. Well, Maureen's okay in small doses.
