Have you ever heard of the Plastics?

[BlueStorm]

I was watching Dr. Keith Ablow today where he was having updates on some of his guests. Apparently there was this young man who is part of a MySpace group called "The Plastics" or just "Plastics" where they bully and put down people online. I was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of this clique-like group or others similar to it.

1. Sounds more like an indie rock band, haha.

Apparently it's from the movie Mean Girls.

2. I see.

I kinda get now. The group Aqua put it best with their song "Barbie Girl." lol

4. It probably is...I tried looking up this group on MySpace

Just to see what kind of shit they do and there were some people on there that had bands named "The Plastics" So I am sure there are indies out there with that name.

5. There was an early-80's Japanese new wave band by that name, actually. nm

7. Oh really?

I never heard of them. But then again I was too young to focus on the entertainment world.

8. I was only ever vaguely aware of them.

Saw a video or two on some late-night show. (we had no MTV
in the house then, so it wasn't there.)

Their sound kinda reminded me of the B-52's; that's
really all I remember.

9. I saw a band called that on SCTV back in the 80's.

Did a goofy song called "Everybody knows". Funny shit.

10. It was mentioned in "The Graduate"

"Plastics, Ben. Plastics."

Probably not the same thing you're talking about.
