***cue "Don't Chu" by Simple Minds*** < a shot of a busy Pasadena street > < cut to 3 sini-kids in a car stuck in traffic somewhere along the Interstate 5 > < cut to a montage of plastic popes > < a locker with slow graffitti that reads "open this locker and you die fag!!!"> < Kitsch pictures on a wall like 1940's era cuties in a spaghetti eating contest > < a wooden banister with "I'm eating my head" carved in it > < cut to 2 sini-kids speeding down the interstate and talking about the owners of a mail-order company > Enter Rachel Fruitloop and Ernie "Will" Cloves. They were told that part of the party had already checked in and may have been waiting in the bar area. ***Cue "Fire In The Twilight" by Wang Chung*** Ernie and Fruitloop went running through the restaurant trying to find the other Sinisters, but they were nowhere to be found. they changed directions too fast, and tried to avoid the owner and Rachel's 1980's boots sent her skidding down the hall. They made it back to the front of the restaurant, trouble averted. Soon, Rachel Cornflake, Katie "Rachel" Cheeriodle and Benny (not part of the sinister list) arrived. Ernie Recognized Rachel from the last L.A. Sinister meetup. Soon entered Michael Vance. He joined the group right off, he recognized the twee-ness. Then Jose joined in, Rachel Cornflake recognized him from the last time, too. Some speculation went on about whether or not Jennifer Juniper and her friend or Juju Cat would arrive. They did not, unfortunately, and they were missed. Also, Ryan, Lord of the Nursery (dweller of about 7 weeks now!) was expected. Group complaints were made about how hungry everybody was. Then the overlords, or Hostesses of the restaurant spoke: "It is now 9:25. You have exactly 8 hours and 45 minutes to collect 80% of your party before we'll seat you. And we don't mean a single person repeated a thousand times. Any questions?" Jose turned to the group: "I got a question: Does Belle & Sebastian know that you raid their wardrobe?" Rachel Fruitloop said: "I'll give you the answer to that Mr. Jose next Southern California meet-up. Don't mess with a red bull young man, you'll get the red horns" Enter Ryan, fashionably late. and hungry. He was updated on the status of our party and talked to the overlord hostesses again. Rachel Fruitloop hid the necklace that Katie Cheeriodle made for her out of fruitloops. Rachel Cornflake bit her nails. Ernie quips: "You keep eating your hand, you're not going to be hungry for dinner" The party was FINALLY seated. Some very cheeky waiters came by and pretended to be trying to get our orders. Waiter: "What's your poison?" *silence* "What do you drink?" *blank stares* Ok, forget I asked. Rachel Fruitloop: "Coke" Waiter: "Coke? When do you drink Pepsi?" RFL: "Whenever" Waiter: "A lot?" *3 others order a soda* RFL: "tons" Waiter: "Is that why you're here tonight?" The waiter went to get drinks and the food order was decided on. Michael Vance: "What's in there?" *he's vegan* Katie Cheeriodle: "Guess. Where's your dinner?" Benny: "You're wearing it" Katie Cheeriodle: "You're nauseating!" Michael Vance: "Can I eat?" Benny: "I dunno. Give it a try" *he also asks who morrissey is but is only being a pain in the ass and very funny* Food is ordered and eaten. Ryan made snow on his placemat by overloading his coffee cup with sugar. He then poured sugar over two pieces of bread and mashed corn pops in the middle to make a sandwich. The olive and pimento loaf is stuck to a statue somewhere off in the distance. <cut to a clock face, The group eats the clock around> Rachel Cornflake said: "Being Sinister feels pretty good, eh?" ***snapshots are taken as the group leaves the building*** <Cut to the sidewalk outside of the restaurant> The debate of mobile phones began, and ring tones were transfered from phone to phone. Michael Vance: "That's real intelligent" Jose: "You're right. It's wrong to destroy music, such fun to ring. *turns over phone* 'Legal Man' really pumps my nads" <cue classical music bit> Rachel Fruitloop: "My love is disital" ***Jose throws mobile phone at RFL*** Ryan Nurserylord: "Speak For Yourself" Michael Vance: "Do you think I'd speak for you? I don't even know your mobile phone number!" ***everybody laughed. Michael and Ryan talked technical about video game design for a good portion of the night. It was funny that they didn't both share a passion for mobile phones. The group parted ways and decided that the trip to the bar would have to wait*** <cut to Rachel Fruitloop's bedroom> <cue bootlegs of Belle & Sebastian shows. The sound of Rachel Cornflake doing the speaking part during "Dirty Dream #2" rang out> Rachel Cornflake raised her head up from her huddled mass of pyjamas and cuteness on the floor and could only manage a "WOW!" Ernie "Will" Cloves played the best selections from the bootlegs he brought, holding the dj spot on Rachel Fruitloop's bed as Rachel Fruitloop sat next to him. Katie Cheeriodle was seated on the floor looking sleepy and Benny was near Ernie, seated on the futon chair. ***Benny removed his glasses and they broke.*** Rachel Cornflake: "Screws fall out all the time, the world's an imperfect place!" Benny: "aww, show a dick slap some respect!" *it was not a missing screw. they were broken.* Katie Cheeriodle: "I expected a little more from a middle distance runner. You're not foooling anybody, Benny! The next screw that falls out is going to be you." Benny: "eat my shorts" Rachel Fruitloop: "what was that?" Benny: "EAT MY SHORTS" Rachel FL: "You just bought yourself another Sinister meet-up mister!" Rachel Cornflake: "Oh, I'm crushed!" Rachel FL: "You just bought one more right there!" Rachel CF: "Well, I'm free the Saturday after that. Beyond that, I'm gonna have to check my calendar!" <Ernie peeked out from under his hood> ***Everybody agreed that we will have to have another Sinister meetup soon because it was so much fun!*** <cue "Don't Chu" by Simple Minds again> Friday, November 9th, 2001 Sinister "list date", Pasadena, CA Dear Sinister, We accept the fact that we had to sacrafice a whole friday night for whatever it was that we did Sinister. And what we did WAS twee. but we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us. In the simplest terms, in the most conveniant definitions, what we found out is each one of us is a Brain, a Sexual Athlete, a Basketcase, a Princess and a Dick Slap. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Rachel Breakfast Club ***still shot of fist in the air silhouetted against the sky. Roll credits. fade to black.*** -THE END- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
