Names for my Antagonizers

Since my role at the current JHS is so minimal (which sort of makes up for very busy, hectic days at the elementary schools), I have plenty of time to think when I’m there. One of the things I do to kill the boredom is to come up with names for my three antagonizers. 

The vice principal has a huge belly that juts out. When he stands sideways he looks like an uppercase letter D. One of the co-teachers is wrinkled and scrawny, yet always on a diet. The other one is the perfect example of how someone can be both silent and hostile. Which is actually preferable because she has a shrill voice that grates the nerves.

Here’s what I’ve come up with:

Jabba & his Harpies

Las Tres Viejas Amargadas

The Three Mean Girls

The Wicked Witch of the East and her Monkeys

Haggis & the Hags

El Gordo, la Flaca y la Odiosa

El Panzón y sus Brujas

Skeletora & her Lackeys

The Liar, the Bitch & the Warthog

The Battle-ax, the Crone and the Shrew

The Horrid Harridans

My boss met with my two insufferable co-teachers yesterday. Afterwards, in the car, she said, “They are old women who do things old fashion Japanese way.” If someone in her 70s calls a pair of 50-somethings old and old fashioned, you KNOW they must be some miserable broads.
