6. Did you used to cut up in class?
Did Sister Mary Martyr smack you with a ruler routinely?
Did you spend lots of time in the corner?
Not finish your homework?
Sit down first in the spelling bee?

This group is for you!

12. No, but I laughed out loud when the priest talked about
transubstantiation. Does that count?

That was the year I fled Catholic school. I was ten.

31. How about a group for those of us who are GOOD LOOKING?
- A photo will be required to participate and we will discuss the horrific stress caused by "being hated because we're beautiful."

Our sub-group - "Bosoms-R-Us" - will have an online discussion on how to have a conversation with a person while their eyes are firmly glued to your tits.

Of course, this will NOT be an elitist group. However, the homely and flat chested might just want to stay home and wash their hair - which is pretty much what they end up doing most nights, anyway.

33. Great Idea!
Of course we will have to vote on who we let in! If you were were a "gifted" kid and are really good looking, George Cloony or Angelina Jolee good looking, then you could possibly be president of the club!

Your is funny though, mine was more serious. I just hope the "gifted kids" can laugh at themselves a little bit. That thread left me with some nausea in my stomach.

35. I might be interested in a group for painfully average children
who grew into painfully average adults. Or one people who weren't classified as gifted, but received gifts on special occasions.

43. Sounds good.
These threads make me think of the Simpsons' episode where Bart cheats on an IQ test and winds up in the gifted class. When asked to give an example of a paradox, Bart replies, "damned if you do, damned if you don't".

Sorry. DU discourages copycat threads in the General Discussion forum. They tend to foster more copycat threads and clog the forum for other discussions.

Thanks for your consideration.
