Much as we love the series, it's undeniable how much fun it is to snark the sitters themselves. But who is the most deserving of "ridicule"... it's a tough one...
Kristy - obsessive dictator
Claudia - insane dress sense, seemed like a ditz, undiagnosed learning disorder
Stacey - zomg so sophisticed NYCer with more boyfriends in her thirteenth yr than the average person has in a lifetime.
MA - passive agressive split personality, serious anger management issues, way too serious about her "boyfriend"
Dawn - annoyingly preachy militant "crusader", dress sense "California Casual", changed from "not exactly pretty" to "stunning", boring stereotype
Mallory - whined incessantly about her zomg! Braces! Glasses! Red hair! Parents were breeding machines with a strange opposition to sparkly stuff
Jessi - the wonderously groundbreaking BLACK ballerina who assumed everyone was racist and played the part of "token" nicely (oh, that is whack!!!)
;D

Mallory. I just reread "Mallory and the Dream Horse," which is probably why I feel that way.

Jessi seems to be the easiest for most people to snark, but I don't really think she's that bad. Same with Dawn. For me, Mallory is the easiest to snark on, even though I sometimes feel bad for her.

I agree--Mallory. She's just so whiny and says things like "If I were thirteen instead of eleven, life would be a picnic" and writes stories about mice wearing sneakers.

Mallory was written to be the dork, but as someone who detests spelling errors, I mentally pick on Claudia the most.

I think Mallory is easiest to snark, but Claudia is really easy as well and I prefer people making fun of Claud rather than Mal

Dawn's pretty easy to snark on, because of the inconsistencies that developed around her and her changing character. And how much of an odd sterotype she plays into, with her California Casual lifestyle. I still like her, but she's easy to mock.

Hmmm . . . I would say Claud because there seems to be more recorded incidents of her acting like an idiot than anyone one else.

I like snarking on Claud the most, because her spelling drives me mad.

I always love to snark on MA, just because she's my favorite "I wish you'd get out of my life... forever!" Come on!

They're all good to snark on, but I snark on Mallory the most and Dawn the second most. I love how dorky Mallory is, and relate to it, and Dawn actually pisses me off in the later books, once the ghostwriters have turned her into b*tch!Dawn. Although I do like her again in the California Diaries.

I must say that Mallory is the easiest.
Too bad. I sometimes feel so bad for Mallory, especially when people call her ugly. Red hair and freckles are awesome! ^^ And sometimes it seems like everyone snarks only on her, and then it's funny to read about people snarking on other characters. XD
Or maybe I just relate to her dorkiness, because I used to be such a dork at the age of eleven. :DDD
