I’ve heard of “sixty-niners”, but what’s a “ninety-niner”? As for being cool, I’m only me because I’m too cool to be someone else. ---

I’m fairly witty, moderately well-versed in many topics, and I like to make oblique references to LucasArts “Monkey Island” games from time to time.\* I like apple Pop-Tarts and pie, and I’m not afraid to show my emotions. I own 227 DVDs, and a full-sized Indiana Jones & The Temple of Doom arcade game. My wife somewhat appreciates, but mostly tolerates, these possessions. I think Fight Club is a masterpiece in form, and Event Horizon one of the worst cinematic abominations foisted upon unsuspecting man. I prefer Connery Bond to Moore Bond. I prefer Dick York to Dick Sargeant. I like Milky Way Dark, but will accept Milky Way. I liked the old Press Your Luck, and would rather have my butthole stapled than watch “Whammy.” I wish Harrison Ford had died before he made every since Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, so I could remember him fondly. The same goes for Eddie Murphy since The Distinguished Gentleman. I have eaten sushi off a naked woman. I have smuggled beer into movie theaters. And most of all, I enjoyed “The Last Action Hero,” even though I suspect I’m one of about 15 people in the world that did. Thank you for this opportunity to speak. I hope my application will be considered. - I can hold my breath for 10 minutes! ---

**twicks** , you’re not the only one who thought **ratpack**. Maybe **Steve Wright** will join us and we can form our own [Curmudgeon’s Corner\*\*. ---

Okay, this is it. I’m not in any of the other cliques, and I’m not getting my monthly supply of cookies and beer that that some Dopers are getting as I found out in [this thead](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=258305&page=1&pp=50), so I want in this group. I have an extensive supply of useless trivia (everyone wants to be my partner when we play Trival Pursuit), I can draw pretty well (everyone wants to be my partner when we play Pictionary), and I also own a pair of found Ray-Bans. The cool black ones, like Tom Cruise wore in _Risky Business_. Like **Chastain86** , I have smuggled beer into movies (but I have never eaten sushi off a naked woman). I prefer dark chocolate over milk chocolate, and think white chocolate is an abomination. I prefer steak cooked rare, and think those who eat meat cooked well-done should be shot. I’m the smartest person in my house; I know this because I’m the only one who knows how to make ice cubes, replace the toilet paper when it runs out, and how to let the dog out. I prefer driving a standard stick shift over an automatic - it’s just more fun. I can quote various episodes of _Friends_ at any given moment. So, am I in? ---
