Just wondering if anybody knows of a Daria/Jay & Silent Bob crossover fanfic that's lurking about there, though I do appreciate some of the fanfic sites have language rescrictions that'd cause Jay to be pretty much as quiet as Bob if a story was posted there. :-)

Actually the real resson for posting this is a test, I'm having to us a remote NNTP server that was carelessly left publically accessable as the sods at the university computing centre refused to get a.t.d on the university newsserver "Not academic related" was the excuse. hmmmmph!!!

Just, I know messages with:

subject: Test body: This is a test.

Drive me up the wall and I wouldn't want to be responsible for spawning one but I do want to know if I can post.

Hey there. I've been lurking around the Daria fandom for about a year and half now, and have never heard of a crossover like that -- although it would be possibly the coolest thing ever in the history of the universe. Needge.

Hmm... but what would they do? And why would they be in Lawndale? (I'm going to have to rent "Chasing Amy" and get a better handle on those characters; I've always wanted to write a fanfic).

Oops. I should also tell ya all that I mean a *GOOD* Jay and Silent Bob crossover would be cool.

I can imagine them getting _very_ lost in their quest to get to "Shermer, Illinois" and winding up in Lawndale.

They don't appear much in Chasing Amy (rent it anyway, good film). But you'd probably get a better idea about the characters from the Jay & Silent Bob comics.

Waitamin...do you mean *the* Shermer, IL, as in "Shermer High School, Shermer, Illinois, 60661"? How does that have to do with...oh never mind, I'll just leave the mystery in this. :)

That, Ms. Interference, is NOT possible.

probably not. :-) the ending though, i think only once is too many times to watch, iirc.

LOL, you're probably right. And seeing my original post and thinking, "Wait...isn't the zip code they quoted 60612?", I realize you may be absolutely right. LOL, I do good by remembering the quote they use at the very beginning is by David Bowie... :)

Why, because you find it contrived that the five of them would get together like that? Who knows, maybe their detention was the thing they needed to bond together or something. It's not a total impossibility, though. I dunno, maybe I'm speaking out of wistfulness, or maybe it's just that the very end of the movie presents my absolute FAVORITE song from the soundtrack, "Heart Too Hot to Hold". I LOOOOOOOOOVE this song to pieces and when I'm in my truck I'll put in my "Breakfast Club" soundtrack in the tape deck and crank up the volume when that song comes on.

LI, who's thrilled she can talk about her very fave movie

yes. also if i remember correctly it's the nerd who ends up with no-one, not the popular bloke. i didn't like that. :-)

bit of a coincidence... ;-)

is anything?

My other problem is that the proto-Goth freaky girl gains self-esteem learning how to conform, rather than learning how to be proud and confident in her freakiness. I liked her better as a weirdo.

I did love the soundtrack and certain elements of the film, though.

I *loved* that. The movie was *so* realistic, I couldn't believe it. I can still watch it and nail down people I knew in high school who were perfect for each role, and how true the storyline seemed. Like it or not, the nerd ends up with no one a million times a day all over the US (world?) in schools just like that one. And the response for attempted suicide *is* something like detention or other lame-o crap.

Cubs Win? Cubs Win?

I was just thinking, how long's it been since I screwed around with your sig file?

well it wasn't very realistic that popular girl goes off with bloke with antisocial personality disorder, and weird girl goes off with popular git. i didn't like that. they gave her a fucking makeover and she looked awful, and what would have happened in real life is that he'd have laughed at her. people don't like it when weird girls get makeovers.

quite possibly.

no kyle. ;-)

heehee :-)

Maybe in the school situation. The "nerd" from our group growing up, Irwin, is today married, with one kid and another on the way.

He's the coach / teacher I told you about. He bulked up in the US Army.

I think it's perfectly reasonable. The cliques of high school are rather artificial anyway; how religiously do people adhere to them in later life or in other social settings, like the Internet? The characters in TBC were forced into each other's company; because they weren't bad people they came to like each other. Why not?

Yep, it's *the* Shermer Illinois. You see, Silent Bob has a peculiar obsession with John Hughes films and Molly Ringwald. The Jay and Silent Bob comic mini-series is all about their blundering misadventures as they try to get to Shermer from New Jersey.

Oh, really? That is *too* cool!!! I like Silent Bob now. I too have this gigantic thing for all John Hughes teen movies from the '80s, most especially "The Breakfast Club"..."Sixteen Candles" is another really good one...and Molly Ringwald is *the* epitome of what I'd like to pattern my personal style after once I get enough money to acquire a regular wardrobe *AND* a "fantasy" wardrobe...especially the styles she wears in "Pretty in Pink"...although not the car, I couldn't drive a pink car, nope.

All right, Mike!! That makes two ("hits, me hitting you, you hitting the floor"...*giggle*) of us.

LI, who's, like, feeling totally '80s now, even though, like, she's totally listening to Chic now and it's, like, totally disco
