This is doing nothing but capitalizing on what is now decades of research showing that girls are far crueler in their conflicts, most so with their own gender. It can be summed up thusly, "Boys will hit you, but unless there's some underlying esteem issue, as with bullying, this outburst is generally the culmination of feelings they find unpleasant and burdensome. They achieve a violent, physical release and are done with it. They don't hold very complicated grudges. Girls and women simmer on emotional fuels and cultural repression for some of the most incommensurate forms of retribution imaginable." We socialize them to internalize their wealth of emotional reactions, and this is the likely result. Girls who not only hit, but who do so knowingly, with intent to maim, and who linger around to make sure their prey is down. The behaviors are hardly limited to the lower classes. Someone should study Fortune 500 females and call it "Lionesses in the Boardroom."

I made an interesting, albeit purely casual, observation during my years in social service work with teenagers.
No matter how pissed off a boy is at you, in most cases he'll give you at least grudging respect because of your position of authority. Girls don't give a shit. If you're in their way, they're moving through and they don't give a fuck one way or the other about who you are or what your title is.
It didn't take me long to figure out I felt much safer working with boys than with girls.

Before she was famous for exposing her cootch wherever and whenever a camera is present, she was "famous" for being an actress. She did Disney flicks, believe it or not.

Violence or sex, it's all the same with us.

It is just a remake of Heathers, which itself was just a remake of one of the best worst B movies I saw in the 1970s. I can't remeber the name though.

Indeed. I was well-intentioned. Now I'm smarter.

I'm not sure whether I qualify or not. Does beating rich people to death with their own golf clubs count as a "social service?"

I certainly felt I was. But now there's all this talk of recession. I blame myself.
