Dear **jarbabyj** ,

I like you. Do you like me?

\_\_\_Yes \_\_\_No (Check one)

Do you want to be my girlfriend?

\_\_\_Yes \_\_\_No (Check one)  
You can give this back to me during lunch.

**Tommy**  
P.S. Don’t tell ANYBODY  
[sub]OK so that’s not an arguement, but even in 4th Grade I was a lover, not a fighter[/sub]

::Snatches **Tommy the Cat’s** note, shows it to _everybody_ ::

Tommy wants to marry jarbaby! Which is like totally stoopid because she kisses her n’sync poster goodnight every night before she goes to bed and everybody knows it.

::Revising best friends list, putting _extra_ heavy lines over Cranky and jarbaby. Considering boosting FairyChatMom to top of list, depending on whether or not an invitation to her party is forthcoming. Draws little heart around Jester’s name with _purple_ ink, 'cause pink is for babies.::

Hey, iampunha, wanna trade lunches?

Hey, **katie** , at least my Barbie purse is better than your Little Mermaid backpack. All the cool kids stopped wearing Disney stuff back in the second grade.

And I just got a whole new set of gel pens and you can’t play with them. So _there_.

Oooooooh Jack Batty said a **bad** word!

Hey Jack  
I hate to talk about your momma but she’s in my class  
She’s got popcorn titties and a rubber ass.  
She’s ninety-nine.  
She’s Frankenstein.  
She’s the fattest motherfucker on the welfare line.

My daddy’s a lawyer and my mommy’s a cop.

When Rosebud gets home she’s gonna get a whuppin. Hey Turbo Dog, my daddy says we can make it a class action. We’re gonna get the whole _class_ on Rosebud!  
P.S. My daddy says we got free speech, so it don’t cost me nothing to say KISS MY ASS!

Waitaminnit. Don’t tell the principal. Ssshhh! I didn’t say kiss my ass, I said kiss my pass. My hallway pass. Nooooo. I don’t want detention!
