If the DU Lounge is like high school, who are the prom king and queen?
:shrug:

I'm thinking flvegan might be the prom king. Cute, sporty, kind to animals.
The prom queen is harder to pin down. Lionesspriyanka, the honor student who'd look so good in the gown? Dolo Amber as the surprise choice Daria-like beauty with the razor-sharp wit?

What do you think?

2. I think we didn't bother to choose one.
We seem to be busy spiking the punch and dirty-dancing.

I always thought it was like the football captain and the head cheerleader and it didn't matter if they were dating. Would they consider whether people were a couple when deciding the prom court?

56. DS1 is the Class Clown.
and the Prom King and Matcom is the Prom Queen,
  • flvegan is captain of the football team,
  • LeftyMom is the head cheerleader (with apologies for comparing her to a cheerleader),
  • Rabrrrrrr is the student body president. He wasn't elected, he just took over the position. No one wants to try to take it back from him. Including the school board.
  • An unnamed tombstoned DUer was president of the Drama Club
  • Midlo is the official party girl
  • LynneSin is the hall monitor
  • Mo is Valedictorian and voted "Most Likely to Succeed."

76. School board wouldn't dare do anything to oppose me - they know my clone army
is watching their homes, and trailing their every move, just waiting for the command to liquify and then laugh at.

This'll be the first prom that ends a few days later with nuclear annihilation of the world, and me asking matcom very sternly, "There - now are you happy?" I can't emphasize enough the stern seriousness with which I will ask that question. Nor can I overemphasize the truly insane amounts of beer we shall consumer afterward, laughing our asses off at the vast amounts of unending misery and death we've caused.
