Comments on: Mean Girls http://www.nonfamous.com/wp/2004/04/29/mean-girls/ commentary on the world around us, with an effort to keep paranoia at the lowest healthy level Thu, 04 Dec 2008 01:00:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Marti http://www.nonfamous.com/wp/2004/04/29/mean-girls/#comment-617 Marti Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:00:00 +0000 http://www.nonfamous.com/wp/2004/04/29/mean-girls/#comment-617 I want to see it! Tina Fey was interviewed yesterday by Terry(i?) Gross and it was great. As the sister of a teenage girl (as if formerly being one was enough justification), I think it is great that this subject get some attention. People take "kid stuff" pretty lightly, but wait until your kid is ready to kill her/himself and then tell me it isn't a big deal. Kids are MEAN and ruin the lives of other kids. One thing she said that struck home with me was how ingenious girls can be in what they do to others. It made me think of this girl in high school who (in hindsight) was insanely jealous of the pretty girls who never paid any attention to her (I was friends with all parties and actually the pretty girls were a lot nicer). Well, jealous girl HATED these other girls. So she DRESSED UP AS A WITCH and came to school and told them she had put a curse on them. There was this whole supporting cast to go along with -- her other loser friends went along with it!! ONLY a teenage girl could come up with that! I want to see it!
