MEAN GIRLS (RELEASED IN 2004)
Producer Lorne Michaels and stars Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams,
Screenplay written by Tina Fey.
The plot of this picture gives a synopsis of the level of cliques in a school system which I will refer to as a “jungle”. Also, refers to subcultures of mix, White, Black, Asian, Iraq, Arabian, Chinese and others. Examples of some of the other Cliques who use special names, e.g., are Geeks, Nerds, Super A, Jerk-Offs, Wipes, Shits, Snots, Bitches, Sluts, etc. What seems to be the usual Victim is the “kid” that is a so-called misfit, unfit and pitiful is shown their place in society early in life. The usual methodology includes public humiliation, personal degradation and wonders of wonders the use of scandalous gossip that takes on a persona of truth as we know and breathe so help me God. Not.
Indeed everything we say is factual and actuality with no connivance of course, manipulation, or alteration by the mocking bird that relays the most titillating pure juicy totally outrageous news flash that would wow the world and shake us all in our brain until we hemorrhage on our sheer magnificence of what we just told somebody. Go figure we got it right and we are always right. Right. Clique. Whose life is it anyway? We know them in and out and we have the right to tell the world anything hurtful and mess them up bad isn’t that the true? Is this fair to the person who did you no harm?
The movie takes on a life of its own in the form of a comedic portrayal of hysteria in the making of psychological twists of what I like to classify as mass hysteria and that is the seduction and conditioning of the masses to change their behavioral pattern. Norms and social rigidity is ignored in this movie as in the book “Odd Girl Out written by Rachel Simmons” which reflects ulterior methods, gossip, double talk and lies to defame another girl’s or woman’s character utilizing Cliques (group of females – girls and women) to destroy another human’s id or psyche as written in my paper “Lost Boys and Odd Girl Out Research paper by Felicia McCaw (it's on this website - google on please - search”.
Behavioral patterns have already been studied and the effect from positive to negative is reflected in the movie which results in extreme desensitization and what I classify as despicable behavior, e.g., are cited in my paper which include spreading rumors, lying, setting up their quarry, manipulation to inflict psychological pain, cruel text messages, emotional abuse, deliberate isolation, exploitation, blackmail, photographs, stalking, ruthlessness and aggressiveness that exceed norm and cruelty.
As is the process of this brief analysis is to study our youth and prevent the destruction of our most precious asset. Them.

Propose Extra Credit to teacher and ask if you can do an oral presentation with students asking you questions to allow you to become used to speaking in front of a crowd. This will teach you how to be an orator and a great speaker one day.
The assignment is to watch the movie, answer the questions with emotional feeling and thought and write an essay of the possible consequences of living with the thought of yourself being caught up in hurting another human being that they cannot go on who commits suicide.
Can you live with yourself and the knowledge that everyone has judged you as killer who put the bullet in the gun but didn’t pull the trigger yourself but you are the prodder who egged and hounded them on until they could not take it anymore? Would you feel indifferent and why? What has happened to the moralistic thought of caring and why did everyone become uncaring of what the outside world thinks or feels about your being the catalyst in this sad scenario?
By doing so you will develop stimulative comprehension, interpretative comprehension, and thought comprehension. These are classified as starters and teaching sessions.
Stimulative Comprehension - Consist of stimuli that encourages thought patterns to emerge that facilitate understanding with more comprehension and continuous thought.
Interpretative Comprehension - Consist of taking a thought and becoming more analytical and interpretative of the intent whether clearly versed or hidden and obtaining the intent to keep on.
Thought Comprehension - is the last step in assimilation because it takes in account the stimuli and the reason (interpretative comprehension) and it will facilitate considerable change and expanded thought that allows more understanding and evolved thought patterns.
