Sure, her character in Sixteen Candles was a spoiled brat and a snob.

John Hughes was a jerk. Comedy is made by jerks.

Some of the posts on the "BREAKING: Run on the Banks in China – Long Lines in Henan, Shanghai, and Dandong" look like they belong here.

Strange Days have tracked us down
They’re going to destroy
Our casual Joys”

In high school, I was lead singer in a garage band - we rehearsed in a garage but never got a gig although we did have a few groupies that visited the garage.

As lead singer, I always channeled my inner Jim Morrison.

Years later as an entrepreneur interfacing with the music industry, a good friend & mastering engineer gifted me CDRs laser burned direct from the studio tapes of their first & last albums he re-mastered.

"The Breakfast Club" is a movie that will always mean something special to me because it was the first movie I saw with the woman who would later become my wife and it was also the first movie I saw after I was discharged from active duty in the Marines.

I didn't think it was a great movie otherwise but I did think the janitor was pretty cool. The only one in that movie that had a lick of sense.

Or how about in Ferris Bueller, the Charlie Sheen character winds up making out with Ferris’ sister.
