After school, Claudia gets a call from Kristy, who's decided to take advantage of Watson's super-awesome millionaire mansion to cram the BSC and their families in on Thanksgiving.
I hope there's a kid's table - no, scratch that - I hope that there's a kid's table and that Karen and Andrew don't come to the feast because they have to go to Lisa's parents house or something. Now there's something to be thankful for!
Knowing Kristy though, she'd demand that the BSC sit at the kid's table to watch the kids. Yeah. Watch kids whine about food they don't like and get away with it.
Your snarking is wonderful. Not read this book myself... kind of glad I haven't.
Janine: Pass the milk, please. Claudia: Why? Is it failing? AHYUCK HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK. No, Claudia, YOU fail at being funny. Or you do when you're trying to be funny, anyway. I don't remember the details, but I remember one time the other girls were all SRS BSNS about something and Claudia piped up with a comment about food. Just keep doing that, Claud.
one class gets to write and perform a play at the middle school, one class (Claudia's) gets to write and perform a play for elementary school children, and the other two classes...get to study playwrights and literature. Whoever is in those last two classes got very, very jipped, and the fact that they're now going to need to sit through the play written for SMS by the other class mandatorily, while silently seething over why couldn't THEIR class have done this instead of having to textbook through a bunch of old playwrights just adds tons more insult to injury. THIS. Unless the classes were assigned by polling the kids on their level of stage fright or something (and even then

This reminds of the episode of Roseanne when DJ was allowed to write the thanksgiving play and did it to the theme of pulp fiction
the parents must hate Kristy-- did it ever occur to any of them that MAYBE they want to be with their own family instead of giving into Kristy... Maureen might want a nice, quiet thanksgiving meal with her daughter, and what the hell ass turkey are they going to get to feed 60 and what the hell ass house is going to hold 60, I mean I get that the mansion is big, but that's a bit extreme....

I say she is the definition of spoiled.
And tyrannical, and pushy, and bossy, and overbearing, and annoying...

Ha! That is the best description of Jessi ever!
Jessi has to get on her high horse and mention how there were no African Americans at the first Thanksgiving,
God, that's just insufferable. You know what, Jessi? There were a lot of people not at the first Thanksgiving. Stfu.
