New Generation Doper Brat Pack - Auditions open.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

As the title suggests I’m starting an SDMB Brat Pack. Why, you ask? Because we’ve got Mods and Admin, SDSAB’s and the fabled 99’ers. But where in Og’s name is my club? Well as of now it’s right here and I’m giving you all a chance to join.

Auditions will run for as long as I like, because I can be lazy like that.

All are welcome, but if you belong to one of the groups above you will be penalised. Jealous? Me?

I’ll probably set a limit of about 20-30 but I’ll wait to see what happens.

All applicants must be cool and by cool I mean what I think is cool, which could be anything, especially shiny things. :smiley:
Give me your best shot…

2

Um, ok. So what am I supposed to do here? Impress you with my witty thoughts?

3

Hmmmmm, upfront, inquisitive, a bit sarcastic…

:scribbles on notepad:

My main sunglasses are a pair of fake Ray-Bans that I found in the ocean. Really. A bunch of us were standing around talking, kind of chest deep in the surf, and I felt something under my foot. When I reached down and picked it up, it was these sunglasses. I’ve been wearing them ever since.

Any jerk can wear real Ray-Bans.

5

Oh wait – I’m female, so I guess that disqualifies me, eh?

:cool:

6

Let it be known, The Doper Brat Pack is open to all dopers, male and female.

:smiley:

As for the Ray-Ban’s…hmmmmmm…:scribble, scribble:

7

Sure, because we all know that women can’t be cool or brats, especially here on the SDMB. :dubious:

8

Hmph.

And where does this leave us, those people who aren’t old enough to be '99ers, but are far too ancient to be brats? Eh? Where does it leave us?

Nowhere, that’s where. Alone and palely loitering, lost and forlorn in the twilight of our years. I’ve been here three and a half years! That’s … um … nearly twenty-five, in dog (or Internet) years! I demand recognition, respect, and a comfy chair by the fireplace, and don’t disturb me while I’m having my nap!

Hmph. Brat pack indeed. “New Generation”? Only if I get to be Riker. Hmph.

Kids these days.

Hmph, once more, for good measure.

Great, just what we need, a punch of youngsters forming their own gang, spraying painting graffiti everywhere, wearing their colors, disrespecting their elders, etc. Well you punks better keep that music turned down or I’m going to call the moderators!

Kids these days…

There were females in the Brat Pack.

Hmm … does my extensive trivia knowledge qualify me? Or maybe my filky sig?

11

Well, nocturnal_, I’d say we should go out and paint the town red, but we already did purple last week and I don’t think red would show over it.

Besides, I get 30% off Ray-Bans that twickster didn’t find in the sea.

12

I’ve watched “The Breakfast Club” over two dozen times. If that doesn’t qualify me then I don’t know what else would.

13

Like who? :dubious:

Ally Sheedy, Molly Ringwald, Demi Moore.

15

Wow. I totally misread the OP. I thought we were doing a Rat Pack, not a Brat Pack.

I respectfully withdraw my application.

16

:rolleyes: Pppfffftt. Like I give a good rat’s ass about your lame club. Hell with this…I ain’t about to hang out with a buncha douchebags, whining about how imperfect your pathetic little suburban existance is. Dicks. :mad:

So, whaddayathink? Do I get the John Bender role? :smiley:

17

Keats’ fan are we? And yes, brat-packers can be educated and civilised. :wink:

Ummm, that’s Next Generation. Anyway it’s not how old you are on the outside, but how bratty you are on the inside. Come on show me your inner brat. :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s a shame, twickster. It was looking so good for you as well. Are you sure?

As for the rest of you, well pop quiz:

In exactly 14 words and including the word “fungus”, tell me why you are a brat.

18

AT 49, though too young to be a Rat Packer, I’m way too old to be a Brat Packer.

Shades or no shades.

(Too bad we can’t morph smileys: :cool: + :smiley: would be “right on,” as we Boomers say.)

19

Because I like to say the word Fungus. Fungus. Fungus. Fungus. Fungus. Fungus. Fungus.

Some people say that Shirley Maclaine was an auxiliary member of the RP, though.
