Don't mess with Surly Brownie.
Surly Brownie is a cranky lil' girl scout who can make a lanyard and kick your ass at the same time. She became a brownie at age eight, but soon felt out of place amongst the chipper, pleasant little brownies who wished for nothing more than to make their family tree out of macaroni and to macramé tea cozies for their favorite teachers. Surly Brownie's not into macramé. This soon caused her to be blackballed from the crafts table, and to strike out on her own. Surly Brownie has more badges than you, and more merits.
Until the wizened age of eight and one-half, Surly Brownie wandered the wilds of suburban America, lurking around the entrances to AM/PM Minimarts and sleeping in freshly pruned trees. Then she was found by the staff of Stewball Comics and hired as the Emissary of Surlyness. She now has her own room and box of 64 crayons, and no, you can't use them, and you can't come in.
Never too shy to make a buck, though not nearly twee enough to smile for the camera, Surly Brownie undertook a revolutionary modeling career. Her signature jumper, beanie, and orange sock-flags are taking modeling runways across America by storm. (Word has it that Nicole Kidman plans to wear the Surly Brownie jumper at the next Oscars...if Angelina Jolie doesn't wear it first. But don't get it wrong: Surly Brownie doesn't give a cr*p about Nicole or Angelina.) Surly B. pulls no punches, and is featured in a major modeling campaign giving the finger to the mainstream modeling industry and anyone else who pisses her off.

A renaissance chick, Surly Brownie also became an indie/folk/comedy standout troubador overnight. But she won't give peace a chance. She's surly.
