I was involved with some slightly shady people in high school, but I can promise you I was never ghetto fabulous. We didn't have that then.
I dunno - Central Square used to be pretty close to one, but that was a while ago.
Frank, who? It was a big school, but you never know....
Jesse - is your profile addy OK? I'd feel a little weird posting her name in a public forum, though I doubt she'd mind.
I think you made if fabulous, Jesse, just by being you.
Did you have the cowgirl hat back then?
We had ghetto, but no fabulous. Alas, I did not have the cowgirl hat yet.
And yeah, profile address is fine. Privacy? What privacy?
Yes, but you had the POTENTIAL for cowgirl hat wearing, and that's the important thing.
Yeah, well, I have the potential for Fortuny dress wearing, but don't hold your breath.

Hey, if you have as much potential as Jesse had, you'll get into that dress.
It is possible, however, that you had less, and should set your fabulosity goals in a different direction.
Not only that, but neither Affleck or Damon have ever claimed that their upbringing was remotely like Good Will Hunting. They've always acknowledged they were Cambridge brats.
Exactly. GWH is a fantasy of Southie life, not a documentary. (Also, I don't think I knew Jesse went to high school with MattnBen.)
I think Eminem is that angry, but not that scary and is balancing a fair degree of self-awareness with a lack of internal censorship and some impulse control issues.
I get that impression too. I think he channels most of his anger into his songwriting, and exaggerates even there. (Though I do think he has issues with The Ex, and probably women in general.) Everything I've read about him offstage in the last few years makes it sounds like he's a reasonably together being now, even if he wasn't in 1998.
Is he still as homophobic (in his lyrics and/or in real life)?
He did a duet with Elton John, right?
His last album was pretty jokingly referential to his image as a possible homophobic closet case, so whatever his personal feelings may be he's at least willing to have fun with it via his musical persona.
