54 messages in the "A Daria moment" thread, and no one's come up with the subtopic:
Would Daria wear a Halloween costume? (To put it another way, would Daria be caught *dead* in a Halloween costume?) And if so, what would she dress up as?
In my workplace I saw a depressing number of farmgirls and Scream faces, Dorothy from _Wizard of Oz_, and a rather good flapper.
Think globally, act locally. Susan
There is a very slim possibility that Daria dressed up. One, if she was going to embarass a family member, or two, impress Trent. If she did go I'm guessing she'd be a hostile terrorist. With machine gun and everything. The amount of people who dressed up as the Scream dude was annoying. The best costume in our school was an Islami terrorist. He wore a white robe with a patterned cloth on his head with a black chord around it. I was just a plain old, ordinary Sailor Moon. Anybody got any interesting Halloween experiences?

Trent: Rehearsal ran late, or early, whatever.

That's a little over the top, reminds me more of Jane.
Daria would be something a little more understated.

No.
However, while she was left home managing the little trick-or-treaters I could imagine some choice moments. Maybe even end up hosting the entire neighborhood with scary stories (re. "Pinch Sitter," "Teachings of Don Jake" & "Fair Enough").

Jane would convince her to dig up something avant-garde . Maybe if Trent came....

No. Shakespeare wrote Shakespearean plays. But if you renamed all the monkeys, dragons and llamas 'Shakespeare', then anything they wrote would be a Shakespearean play. :)
This is getting confusing, and there's just been a very tiring discussion on alt.music.nirvana about something very similar so I'm going to shut up now before we get into that.
But we all know Shakespeare was not written by Shakespeare but by another man of that name.

Could a dragon hold a pen? I don't think back in Shakespearean times they had computers....
If I recall my "Chronicles of Narnia" right, dragons can tell stories by toeing them into sand for humans to read.

Kyle wrote:
I don't think Shakespeare 'toed' his plays into sand. But English lessons would be much more interesting if he had. :)
Well, Shakespeare/Dragon toed them into the sand, and they were written down by a helpful human who happened to own a theatre known as "The Globe".
Since getting his plays from a dragon would have made him a witch and therefore burned at the stake, young Willie claimed to have written them himself. The dragon was so upset he ate him (although some stories claim Willie blinked first), and that is why Shakespeare is no longer alive today.

Now I'm off to carve 5-point star shapes into my left arm with a razorblade. Bye!
Like I said, enjoy it! I have a friend who is often accused of witchcraft, (I'm serious, folks) she's who I got the garlic thing from. Her other thing is to make signs over anyone who annoys her. People leave her alone.

I'm not so much suicidal as self-destructive. "Suicidal" has more of a depressed connotation, and I'm not. I've been there (last year, in fact), and I have no desire to go back.

I was there last year and I'm still there. I'm not quite as bad now, I've learnt how to actually talk to people, and I'm just not quite the mess I was before. What happened was that I kept falling asleep (more than usual) but noone was too worried until I went to see Oasis and fell asleep on the floor during the Verve's opening show! I kept going to the doctor's, I had about a million blood tests, and then they decided it was depression and sent me off to a therapist.
Which is exactly what I *don't* want to do.
Last year, I slept through every class, got horrible grades, spent every weekend at home watching TV and went to bed dreaming about suicide.
This year, I sleep most class, get good grades, spend every weekend at home watching TV and just go to bed.
And I'm much happier for it

Hmm. That's almost the same as what happened to me, except for the part about the good grades. Damn.
I'm happier, but not happy by any means. I'm happy now, I just had two days off school in a row 'cos I was ill. Being ill is much better than being at school.
Funny thing is: all the things that made me so unhappy are still there.
It's just a matter of perspective, I guess.

Yeah. I guess most of the things that made me unhappy have gone. I was friends with this bitch who was making my life hell and noone liked me because I was friends with her. I couldn't do much about that, I hated her but couldn't get rid of her. Eventually, she got the message (after I punched her in the face, giving her a huge scar on her lip) and my life has improved dramaticly. I'm still not happy, though.
Friend? You had a friend? What was that like? :)
