It's my birthday and I was thinking about the birthday parties I had when I was much younger. And then I started to think about who I would invite if I had a party now. So I compiled a list of fictional characters I would invite to my birthday party. It's a whimsical mix of different personalities and different backgrounds. But all are from TV shows/movies and books that I love(d). Each would lend their own unique brand of
something to make this party one for the ages.
I told Bill about this and he asked if he was on the guest list. I explained that he's not a fictional character and also he didn't need to be on the list because he should be there by default. Then he looked at me with that smirk that says
You are so full of shit. Am not.
So here's my Birthday Party Fictional Character Guest List:
Lorelei Gilmore from
Gilmore Girls - What's not to love about her? She's fun and funny and it would be like having your very best girlfriend there.
Raylan Givens from
Justified - He's a badass with a cool hat. And could also help out when the inevitable fight breaks out.
Sheldon Cooper from
The Big Bang Theory - He's sarcastic and amusing. I would initiate a game of musical chairs just to watch him freak out.
Ichabod Crane from
Sleepy Hollow - He would be fun to teach current party activities to and to learn past party rituals from.
Gomez Addams from
The Addams Family - He's creepy but entertaining in a menacing and loveable way.
Holly Golightly from
Breakfast At Tiffany's -She's the coolest party girl. And then after partying all night we could all go have a pastry in front of the Tiffany's windows.
Minions from
Despicable Me 1 & 2 - This is an obvious choice.
Worf from S
tar Trek The Next Generation & Deep Space 9 - Well, what party wouldn't be complete without an alien? Besides Klingons are my fave ST villains.
Lois Lane from
Superman -I would invite her to maybe talk shop since I was once a reporter and also hopefully the Man of Steel might make an appearance, too.
Bumblebee from
Transformers - He could be the designated driver and DJ. It's a 2-for-1 with the coolest car ever.
Stephanie Plum from Janet Evanovich's
Plum book series - She's from New Jersey. That's all the explanation needed. And if you've read the series, you know that something is bound to get blown up at the party.
Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang -Yes, because every party needs comic strip characters.
Dr. Teeth & The Electric Mayhem from
The Muppet Show - I love Animal and I would let them sing Happy Birthday to me.
Lestat from
The Vampire Chronicles - I would have to make sure there was some blood on tap for him. Who knows, he might hit it off with Gomez. Then again, probably not. One thing's for certain, he'd be the most well-dressed person in attendance.
There's so many others to add to this list and if I put them all down this post would be enormous, so I'll stop here. These are just the ones that immediately came to mind. If I break it down my list is comprised of:
4 women
4 men
1 alien
1 vampire
1 Transformer
Animated characters
Comic strip characters
Muppets
Now
that's a party.
