Bender/Johnson hybrid. When I was good I was very good, when I was bad I was a living nightmare.

I sense a lot of Johnson/Bender combos is Rush TRF land... and now that I think abotu it, the concerts in the 80s were arenas full of Johnsons, Benders, and hybrids of the two. Wow. Thats scary!

Thats scary!   Yeah, kinda funny. Pot-smoking geeks! Sounds like a Rush crowd alright!   Lots of Brians and Allisons (the "weirdos") with Bender rising.

Nor the discovery that changed things around for ME.   First I discovered Rush and real rock music before 10th (I was listening to pop before that), and then I discovered before 11th. I naturally became a bit cooler than the geek I was before.

Some sort of Bender/Allison combo. Depended on whether I was being more introverted or extroverted that day.

Great Poll! Glad I caught this one.

 

Nice to see that Hall is in the lead.

[Rushman14]

I would say I probably hung around the Bender crowd, though I wasnt as screwed up as Bender. Prior to 8th grade I was mix of Andrew and Brian.

[VarianStar]

I voted Allison for the sake of the poll, but high school for me was better portrayed in "My So Called Life". For a poll like that I would be 50/50 Rayanne and Rickie.

[Victoria's Ladder]

Yeah, I had my days where I dressed in all black and months where I didn't talk to anyone. I was odd. Hated sports, Gym or anything team work related I just wanted to left alone. Some may call that Emo now. But I beg to differ. I was emotional because I got picked on in school and then I got beat and cursed out at home. Nothing was really good. I almost ran away A few times. But I am doing Great now:) I have never been this happy. Yes, bad hings have happened but I am really doing good. I love life. I have Great friends, Great family and a loving Boyfriend Sorry about the story

I didn't identify closely with any of the characters.

 

I always did what I wanted in school. I skipped when I wanted and I signed every excuse and paper that the school ever received from my parents. I had a car as a Junior, and I went off campus for lunch and to smoke cigarettes often. We had a pretty tight group of friends that all did whatever we wanted. We partied every weekend. From bars to the quarry, to house parties, we were at the all right ones. (Legal drinking age was 18 at the time, so it was easy to get in the bars)

 

I didn't try real hard in class, and I always got a B or B+ or A.

 

I hung around with the jocks, but I didn't play a sport. Jocks like to party!

 

I also hung around with the cool kids who liked to party, but didn't dress like heads.

 

The only people I didn't hang around with were the ones who never partied. no party = loser.

 

Sometimes I would go out to the bars alone, especially when I wanted to meet new friends.

 

I was lover not a fighter.

 

I met a very cute girl at 15 and 3/4, she taught me a thing or two, and she had a best friend who was her tag team partner. I really was hooked after that.

 

I did get detention once in HS, I think I skipped one class too many, I actually can't remember.

 

You guys tell me, which Breakfast Club Member do I sound like?

That's a total Bender, all the way.

 

 

Saying you're not similar to ANY of the characters was completely inaccurate. Maybe you (and Goob, too) were too busy looking for DEAD-ON similarity to notice the subtle similarities you actually have to the characters. They're essentially archetypes, or exaggerations of "types" of people you find in HS. Between the five characters, the writers have all the bases covered. All of us are at least somewhat similar to at least one of them! Same with the Peanuts characters.

[goose]

Smart, but not obsessed with grades. Interested in punk/metal, but not angry enough to commit as a lifestyle. Athletic, but not much of a rah-rah, joiner type.

 

I was friends with just about everyone, minus the beautiful people. They never really had much interesting to say.
