As for what a merch girl is... I work for bands. It's my job to organize the merchandise (tshirts, CDs, keychains, hats, whatever) and set up the displays and whatnot. Most bands have me do inventories to make sure nothing is lost/stolen. I'm looking to end up on a tour for the summer with a pretty good commission, plus per diem.
Anyways, one of the bands actually hired me for pay to replace their old merch girl who worked for free. Apparently, most merch girls can't stay professional about their jobs and end up fooling around with either the band they're working for or using their job as a way to fool around with other bands. Not to mention getting bitter and unfriendly.
I _am_ allowed to have groupies, though. Get people on the guest list, give out free things, and bring people to afterparties. But the bands are super-protective of me.
But anyways. Basically, I get paid to hang out with bands, sit at a booth, and be personable. Oh, and dress nicely. Can't forget the fashion part.

Leo, you're far too hot to have any right to insecurity. (; My only complaint is that you're approaching the "jailbait" category for me.
Actually, far too many of these lovely women are. D: What gives?? Hatrack has tons of ridiculously hot women, and they're all either married or a little (or a lot) too young!

Approaching jailbait status? I don't think you're going to be incarcerated for a three year age difference...so come to Atlantic City and give it a shot! I'd try, but I already failed her criteria.

In fact, even if you were 71 she would never be "approaching jailbait status," considering she is not a minor, and in many states the age of consent is 16-17.

Besides, I can't be "approaching" jailbait status if I've already passed it...
yous crazy, coil.
And those weren't "criteria", those were "best case scenario"...thingees. I don't expect them. Most of the guys I've liked can't sing to save their souls.

So when's the deadline for casting our votes for the bachelorettes? Not that I could settle for anything less than voting for all the bachelorettes, of course. Posts: 9945 | Registered: Sep 2002

I never said that I loved everyone the same. Everyone has their own unique attributes that are worthy of love.

coil, not all the women on hatrack are either married or jailbait material. Some of us just aren't incredibly hot
Seriously though. I've been thoroughly entertained by this thread and have no desire to post a profile, not because I don't want anyone here to get to know me, but because this is a judged profile.

And therein we see one of the fundamental differences between men and women. Men seem to be far more willing to put themselves on display in a competitive manner.

Appearance Photo: See "Frodo" in the WenchCon Picture thread. Hair: Brown, almost shoulder length, mildly wavy Eyes: my sister called them "crazy eyes"; they're an olive/brown hazel Smile: Wide; only my upper teeth show, and the front two are really huge. I have an overbite, which gives me a bit of a "muzzle" Build: 5'3", 110 lbs, 32-28.5-34 Ancestry: Bulgarian, Dutch, Scotch-Irish Look-Alikes: Elijah Wood? :P
Reason I am cool: I am at ease with myself.
Dating Status: Married Stalker level: Had a very creepy ex-boyfriend who would knock on my bedroom window at night and want to talk. Plans: To get into the gifted/talented program as a permanent teacher.
Things you should know: I know how to move my hips when I dance. I am a terrible housekeeper. I am the Head Wench at the Wenches' Tavern. I don't shave my legs between the Autumnal and Vernal Equinoxes. I have a green thumb. I have an uncanny knack for understanding people - I should have been a counselor. My emotions are very easy to read. I am very sensual - I stick my feet in fountains; I wander barefoot on grass, I always stop to smell flowers...
What I like in a man: Intellectual conversation always turns me on. Nice hair is very attractive. Eyes that hold mine. Ambition coupled with the skill and competence to reach high goals.

Doesn't everyone? I mean, not that I make the rules around here or anything, but it seems to me that anyone's welcome.

hmmm...i'm going to add to this on the basis of the title alone and see how entertaining it is to the people who know what it's all about.
so i don't think i'm a bachelorette so much as a female bachelor. i just moved into a new apartment, and my friends think it would be cool if i put a styrofoam relief don quixote above my fireplace. i disagreed, claiming i'd like to maintain some semblance of class and feminity. then they pointed out the five framed star wars puzzles lining the mantle. point taken, but i'm still not putting up don.
i like to think that my system runs on a new kind of hormone: testostrogen. i don't want to have anything to do with conversations about shaving, waxing, or facials, but i don't sit around in a tattered armchair, watching tv with a bowl of chips at my side, a beer in one hand and my other hand down my pants. oh wait...
anyway, i constantly roll my eyes at both sexes while i sit in my apartment alone with my three cats. and then my married friends drop by and we go out to dinner so i can roll my eyes at them in public. and then they point out that all the flaws i see in other people are also present in me. imagine that.
describe myself in three words or less. bring it on.
[edit: i did not know that testostrogen was a real thing. ]

Well...let me cast a vote from afar (really, really afar, hehehe). Vote for Suneun and Leonide (ahn...can I vote for two? I would vote for all the ladies, but it seemed a little unorthodox).
Once more...sorry for eventual grammar mistakes (sec. language, people) ;-)
Hatrack is so fun! :-)

Hey, Eduardo, if you'd like I'll e-mail you my password for the screen name "Sauron". I only use it to bait Pat=Saruman=2 dozen other screen nicknames.

Thanks, Morbo, but it's ok. I always log on forums as "Eduardo_Sauron" (as "sauron" is always already taken, even before the movies). If I changed my screen name here, I could forgot the password, or the screen name, etc.
So...let's keep things the way they are. :-)
Well, back to Barad-Dûr (or Rio de Janeiro, hehehe).

Things you should know: I insists that everyone has at least one green vegetable with each meal. I randomly insert foreign phrases into every day conversations. I fall asleep during most movies I try to watch. I tend to watch way too many chick flicks for my own good. I talk all the time. All. The. Time.
What I look for in men: Intelligence, humor, and a laid-back attitude. ..and a fuzzy orange coat with stripes doesn't hurt

Hey, give your brother a swift kick in the butt for me. I'm very aggravated with contractors today.

Some random thoughts since I just read the thread from start to finish after Morbo bumped it up a few days ago...
quote:-Beca (who does not appear on "Hatrack's Most Eligible Bachelorette" because she is mortally shy of the camera)
posted March 04, 2003 10:08 AM Yet, earlier in the thread, in Suneun's post on February 27, 2003 12:41 PM, Suneun posted a picture of Beca and herself.
quote:What part of "Saruman ? Pat" did you not understand, Zan?
Zan?! Wasn't he one of the Wonder Twins on Superfriends?

That picture exists because I was about to graduate from college and move 3,000 miles away from my friends - hence I was willing to be in pictures, because I wouldn't get to see these people for a long time.
Then, of course, I decided to return.
I'm still mortally shy of the camera. That doesn't mean I can't overcome my fears when necessary.
