I had to go look it up. Judd Nelson was born in November 1959. The Breakfast Club came out in the spring of 1985, so although not a teenager he was probably only 24 when it was filmed maybe 25.
He is however older than George Clooney.
Never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Or a point you are trying to make.
A good part of my life is spent relating things to George Clooney.
I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.
Dibs!
Hey, I was in Melrose today, visiting a friend and her baby. MMMmmm, babies. I love babies.
I love this quote so much. A lot of people focus on the teens' quotes but if you ask me, this was a brilliant line for this movie. It played out the stereotype of how athletes get preferential treatment and almost help increase the divide amongst the clubbers. That guy was the best principal, Ed Rooney was a close second.
They're predicting snow here this weekend.
You may now resume discussion of the Reagan years and the Brat Pack.

I remember Musical Youth. Pass the Dutchie. Please.
And Billy, my friend lives on Circuit Street, just off West Wyoming.
IIRC, he was the vice principal, even lower than lunch lady in the school administration hierarchy in my book. But you're right, his role was critical to the whole "you see us as you want to see us" theme of the movie.
Ed Rooney? I heard that he was feeling ill; headaches, fever, and a chill. I came to help restore his pluck...
According to Wiki, he was the principal. That matches my recollection.
