Which John Hughes Character Do You Most Identify With

I Love You, Beth Cooper opens in theaters today, and if you didn’t already know, Larry Doyle’s book — at least — is a fun, comedic jumble of John Hughes’ conventions. And since this will publish while I’m actually in the theater watching it, I thought we’d do a frivolous little poll to kill some time before both the review is up this afternoon and what’s one of my favorite Pajiba Guides ever (also, Dan’s Bruno review).

A simple question, really: Which John Hughes character do you most identify with? Unfortunately, there were only ten slots available, so you have to choose from among these characters. None, I suspect, will be a perfect fit, but I’m honestly curious as to how the Pajiba world thinks of itself, at least in terms of Hughesian characters. If you feel moved to explain why in the comments, who’s to stop you?
