Fun with board members

This is inspired by the Immortal Questions thread.

If the world was being ravaged by monsters out of the classic role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons and you could pick any six board members to aid you in your quest to vanquish them....who would you pick. Let's also say that you could assign them the attributes of D&D characters such as fighter, paladin, ranger, bard, thief, wizard, cleric, etc.

1. Boy With A Problem - Ranger
2. Bluechair - Bard
3. Miss Buenos Aires - Wizard
4. Tokyo Vogue - Thief
5. Spooky Girlfriend - Cleric
6. Bambooneedle - Fighter

You can use this scenario or, if you didn't have a misspent youth like I did, you can feel free to invent your own using your fellow board members.

This is ...*yawn*... great! I'm too sleepy (and dopey, for that matter) to do this, but someone needs to take the following assignements:

SIMPSONS- loads of characters here
WIZARD OF OZ - just because
FRIENDS or FRAZIER or CHEERS - classic stuff

Come on, *YAWWWWN*, let's have em...

Marge - Spooky
Lisa - Pip
Bart - Bunny
Maggie - Sweet Pear
Moe - Who Shot Sam
Smithers - MBA
Mr. Burns - Verbal Gymnastics
Homer - Oily Slick
Krusty - Bobster

Carl - Taz
Troy MacClure - Doofster
McBain - Cope
Selma and Patty - Sulky
Itchy and Scratchy - SLL
Kent Brockman - Norman Brain

I'm particularly happy with the Otis match!!

Indeedly-do, Bobsterino.

selfmademug · Post by **selfmademug** » Wed Oct 22, 2003 4:20 pm

Okay, some additions:

Otto - Bamboo
Barney - C Punk (recall he is an award-winning filmmaker, astronaut, and genius)
Grampa - Cbart
Jessica, Bart's one-time girlfriend - LJ

Hope I'm not offending... still working on a few gaps...

The board needs an Apu.

And a whtesde!!!

Snowball - whtesde

Sorry, I know some of these are horribly random. I could barely stand making Blue Chair Chief Wiggum, but come on, ya gotta love the Chief, no? And Noise may seem an odd choice for Nelson, but recall he has his moments of genius, and was the love object of the brilliant Lisa at one time... Laughing Crow was tough to assign as Principal Skinner, but since I'd cast myself as Mrs. Krabopple I thought he would understand the subtle flattery...

God do I have too much time on my hands...

I still have some of you to assign, but the remaining characters are too heinous!! NO ONE here is Ned Flanders, NO ONE!

Miss BA-As a fringe benefit of being a dwarf I demand any and all diamonds found in the coal mine.

Selfmademug-I have no idea is that is good or bad but thank you for including me. It's all in good fun anyway.

Well, she turned out to be fairly evil, which you may only identify with in small moments, but she was clever and very darkly seductive.

I like it!!

Ya'all have captured me perfectly...Selma/Patty the Barmaid. Chain smoking & drinking (yup), or slinging beer when I'm NOT drinking.

Didn't know my posts were all that personally transparent!

lapinsjolis · Post by **lapinsjolis** » Wed Oct 22, 2003 6:29 pm

Clever and seductive? I'll take it!

Now, how is it that I haven't made any lists.....seems I have been being too nice....(she takes off the gloves)

Mug, you are a genius... SG for the Selma/Patty combo is inspired!

Otis: "Ah, the catwalk. The perfect vantage point.....for revenge! Hmmm-ha-ha-ha! Ah, kettle chips! The perfect side dish.....for revenge!" Yup, I can just see it now....

Who is Comic Book Guy? Someone has got to be Comic Book Guy! But why am I a 10 year old boy?!

Because you are the coolest, and the star of the show, of course!!

Hmmm, Comic Book Guy... there are a bunch of very great board members and cast members unassigned. Back to work with me!!

PS-- it is s n o w i n g here!!

Ill still always think of El Vez when I see Apu
And Bobster is still somehow Sideshow Bob, even though you cant really tell by the little red x . . .
