Mean Girls

[Nuzzolese]

I like this movie, got it for Christmas. I like Tina Fey. I don't think I could tell you which girls were the IT girls of my highschool. I knew which ones were supposed to be stylish and hot and I guess popular or at least famous...but it didn't all combine into one group. I don't think my highschool had a powerful clique. If it did, I was kind of oblivious to it. I just recall individual girls who were obnoxiously self important and stylish. Looking through the senior yearbook, I can tell which girls were presented to be active and well-liked, but I don't remember them having much influence.

[jabumbo]

i saw most of the movie on a bus trip somewhere.

i figured it would suck, and it would all be for the eye candy. but it really wasn't all that bad

[TurdBerglar]

nuzzo was a mean girl

[Nuzzolese]

Forget the movie then, what about high school mean girls? Why do you post if you don't have anything to say?

[hpdrifter]

I, too, love this movie.

The girls that filled that role at my high school had some influence and were terrible bitches.

They were definitely worse than the guys and pushed the guys around.

[Nuzzolese]

nuzzo was a mean girl

I doubt it.

[Rock]

It was surprisingly good. And its the only time Lindsey Lohan has ever looked bonable.
And all these cool cliques in the movies are just that to me. The movies. Sure we had cliques in our school, but nothing close to what they show in the movies. Although some members of the "stussy tribe" were ridiculous with their coolness...but whatever.

[TurdBerglar]

I doubt it.


just a bitch then?

[Nuzzolese]

There was Stephanie who won prom queen but she was really sweet and she wasn't the prettiest or most well dressed by any means. There was Emily who was really cool and funny, and smoked a lot of weed, not really stylish, also really nice. There was Kristen who always looked perfect and was kind of bitchy but she walked like a man and wasn't very influential, just kind of a party girl. I don't think we had a queen bee.

[Nuzzolese]

just a bitch then?

what's the difference?

No, older mean bitch girls hated on me for being too sweet.

[kll]

I think my school was along the lines of what Nuzz said about hers. We had popular girls (the same girls getting nominated over and over for homecoming and prom), but there wasn't like girls who everyone parted ways for as they walked by. Maybe because we didn't have any interior hallways. Yeah, that must be why...

[bigblu89]

Unless you were actually one of those girls, you pretty much hated those girls.

I was always one of those "tweener" guys in school. I was on the football team, but didn't hang out with all the "jocks" of the school. So I was kinda friends with everyone, but good friends with only about a half dozen people.

Now that I've been out of HS for, we'll just call it a while, I always like how the few years after graduation, when you're back in your old neighborhood and run into one of those "cool kids" from school, they'll say hello and pretend to want to know how your life has been.

[TurdBerglar]

ah


bitchy by being sweet. that takes skill to pull off.


good for you (y)

[Nuzzolese]

My school didn't have a lot of super rich people. Maybe that makes a difference. It was almost all white, and we had a lot of rednecks.

Oh. Well, I take back what I said then.

[jabumbo]

our prom queen wasn't some drop dead gorgeous girl, but she was the only one i could ever tolerate talking too...


but i think our school was diverse/broken up enough that nobody was really the one, or no group really stood out.

[Nuzzolese]

ah

good for you (y)

I guess that's how you would see the situation.

[hpdrifter]

My school had a lot of rich people and the queen bee was Rachel Johnson.

She was always on some kind of court or whatever.

Jennifer Beecher was the sweet girl all the guys wanted. At least I heard she was sweet, I never spoke to her.

[Rock]

I don't think we had popular people at school. We just had people that everyone knew because of something they did or because of their hotness.

[TurdBerglar]

i don't remember anything from highschool. one of my co-workers who graduated with me will be talking about someone like if a knew that person. i'll have no idea who the fuck he's talking about and then he goes, "GOD DAMN IT!, we ate lunch with him everyday for four years!" then he hits me on the back of the head.

every once in a while i get someone from highschool comeing up to me all excited and shit to see me. meanwhile i have no clue who the fuck this person blabbing at me is. they eventually realise i have no idea of who they are and they have to tell me and then they get pissed. fuck you buddy.

[Nuzzolese]

There were definitely rich bitches now that I think about it. Charlotte Fox. Susan Lindvall and her meathead boyfriend who looked like a pack of hotdogs. But I guess they didn't have big influence.

I think worse than them were the guys because they'd come up to you and say shit and they'd phrase it like right on the bridge of either hitting on you or pretending to hit on you just to give you shit. And they'd talk about girls' outfits and be really sexually aggressive and laugh and say shit like "I'd bend her over" or say they wanted to rape some girl, and they'd be completely insensitive to the fact that other girls are right within earshot.

the scary part is you aren't a drug user...

[TurdBerglar]

i can get verbal instructions and forget them 15 seconds later. hapens all the time. my boss will tell me to do something. then i head over to start doing it then my mind starts to wonder then i get lost in my imagination that never shuts off then i forget what i was just told. so now i have to guess on what my boss just told me to do.

[QueenAdrock]

My school didn't have a lot of super rich people. Maybe that makes a difference. It was almost all white, and we had a lot of rednecks.

I live in one of the top 10 richest counties in the country, and in the part of town of the corporate ladder-climber yuppies. The people who are truly rich in this county are very nice and giving...the people near me crush whoever they can to get a better grip on the rung above them. Pack of wolves they are.

So it's no wonder that their asshole kids went to my school. There were some popular people who were popular because they were nice to everyone, and then there were "popular" girls who thought they were "popular" because they treated everyone else like shit because they were so snotty. In reality, they didn't have friends outside of the 7 or 8 of them because they were so snobby, but everyone figured they were popular because they acted like it.

They talked shit about everyone. I sent one of them an anonymous email telling her that she was a bitch, and she found out it was me (still don't know how). They all then made my life a living hell and I switched schools.

BUT - funny story - the one I sent the email to happens to be pretty ugly under all her makeup, and it turns out that a lot of people from my school agreed with my sentiment that she was a total bitch (maybe my school life would have been better if I realized this, that everyone was on my side except for the 8 of the "popular" girls). ANYWAYS, senior year of high school, another girl posts up pictures of the "popular" girl I emailed, comparing her to a troll doll, all over the 3rd floor of our school. It was awesome. Until they blamed me. But whatever.

[hpdrifter]

... everyone figured they were popular because they acted like it.

This statement intrigues me. Does anyone else think this is totally how popular people get popular?

[jabumbo]

the only people in my school that appeared to hav lots of money were the kids who sold drugs

[miss soul fire]

What's up with Tina Fey?? I'm not talking about her looks, which is ordinary, but she's not funny at all. At all. At least not to me.

I liked this movie, but I expected more mean things!

[QueenAdrock]

This statement intrigues me. Does anyone else think this is totally how popular people get popular?
Well, it depends. I think there's two types of popularity. The first being the "I'm popular because I act snotty and better than the rest of you" which isn't true popularity, but they give the air of being 'popular,' and exclusive.

Then there's the second type. The ones who everyone knows and is friends with. They're not really seen as "popular," though in reality they are (more so than others) since they know everyone and are the ones most active in the school and activities.

[miss soul fire]

If I had gone to high school in the U.S. I would be the target. Totally.

Some of the people I know who went to high school in the States thought it was too easy and that everyone got mad at them because they got the best grades in English. But one of my friends who went to Seattle said that he was very discriminated for being a Brazilian and he looked all German, you know, very white, 2 meters, blonde, blue eyes.

[beastieangel01]

I was oblivious in high school period. I remember a friend talking about the hottest and most popular girl in the entire school (she really was it turns out). She only mentioned her name, and I said "huh? who is that?"

I do like Mean Girls, a lot. Can't help myself. I own it.

[QueenAdrock]

It depends where you go, MSF. We had a fair amount of diversity in my high school. One of my best friends was a Brazilian. He was real smart, and everyone liked him, but that could have to do with the fact that he had really good weed.

Um, I forget where I was going with this.

Weed sucks.

Miss soul fire's sassy today.

or somethin'...

This is actually the real me. I'm mean today. I was born that way. I can't help it sometimes. :o

interesting.

There was a girl I knew from Brazil, and everyone LOVED her. Especially the guys. :)

Different experiences, I say.

Unfortunately I only heard the bad ones.

This woman who I used to work with lived in the U.S. and she said it was like living in Brazil. I mean, people are as nice and as bad as here, ya know. I guess the cultures are to alike, especially because Brazil is more Ameircanized than ever.:p

[marsdaddy]

There were two kinds of popular girls in my high school. One group was the student council/smart kids. They were generally nice. There was a set of twins in this group and everyone wanted to hang out with them -- they had a car, were cool, and oh, yeah, twins!

The other group slept around, generally with the football team. This group partied hard, and smoked.

I wasn't aware of any mean girls, but then again I wasn't a girl -- I think males are oblivious to this stuff unless it's pointed out to us.

As far as the crowd parting, give the movie some artistic license, okay.

Oh and Tina Fey IS funny, MSF. You don't get her, but she's funny. She also has a scar on her face, which she usually hides from the camera. That's part of her charm.

She can be funny to you and lots of people, but definitely not to me.

Wow. There were these girls at my school just like that. No one liked them, they only thought they were popular and powerful. They called themselves 'The Beautiful People' and they all have similar msn/myspace screen names - 'ONE OF THE EIGHT.'

Everyone was intimidated by them because of their whole attitude. But everything sort of backfired on them once they had created a website about this non-popular, unpretty yet clever and lovely girl. They listed everything they hated and spread the address around the computer rooms. Not even all of their bum-chum lads found it amusing.

Cows. My mate lives next door to one 'OF THE EIGHT' in a terraced house, their bedrooms are next to eachother and everytime I'm there I'm shouting "BECKI AYRES IS A WHOOOORE - - WITH DARK ROOTS."

Soooo satisfying.

I can imagine how horrible it must have been at that time though. Maybe you could find a thin wall somewhere!

OHMYGOD - we had a Beautiful People's bench at our high school where only the Beautiful People could sit. hahahahaha (that's for you marsdad)

[voltanapricot]

For us it was more like The Beautiful People's corner where there was a nice wall to sit on, where they'd go with the cocky ladys and contract gonorrhoea. I hope.

[QueenAdrock]

The "popular" 8 from my school are now battling serious cocaine addictions. I guess they're really super-popular in rehab now.

[miss_bhaven]

I love that movie!! :p
