oops....high screwl

Well then let's get back to fun. I am considering taking bets on which of our High School's "bisexuals" have given up on their trendy sexual orientation by now. Personally, I think only one of em was real, and she was a lesbian.

Thanks for the assistance. I almost started doubting what I wrote myself :p

I think you may be right. However, I'm willing to bet that anyone guy who came out during HS likely still is gay. Since judging by this thread, there would have been easier ways to be 'Trendy'.

anyway -
I am, without a doubt, going to my 10 year reunion. Partially out of sheer, morbid curiosity, bust mostly because I suck at keeping up with people and I kinda wanna know where everyone's headspace is at.

Also I kinda wanna apologize to anyone I may inadvertantly have been a douche to, just in case I'm on any "lists"...

My 80k/yr job begs to differ........

Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things...........1 week after high ends

Good thing you brought it up, then. Thank you for proving my previous point...

Wow. I only have a few more years before the 10-year reunion. It doesn't feel like I've been out of school that long at all. Not that I enjoyed school by any stretch of the imagination...I had a horrible experience throughout, but my grad year was by far my worst year.

Funny though how things all turn around in the end. Some of the same people who picked on and bullied me are either dead (two suicides) or in prison (for being a coke addict). All former jocks...and the girls, like everyone else said, have all gotten fat and have at least 2 kids by two different fathers...Or still as biatchy and self-absorbed as they ever were.

I ran into a guy I used to go with school with not that long ago at the casino in Halifax...he was shocked to see how I turned out. He made the comment to my (beautiful) girlfriend that I used to be shorter, fatter and dorkier in high school and that I had really turned it around. Him, on the other had, had gotten a little fatter and a little balder over the years.

Definitely a gratifying moment.

Pretending to be lesbian or bi was a big thing in my HS, strangely enough. I actually had one girl tell me that I should stop coming to the Gay Straight Alliance meetings because I was, you know, straight. With the guys it'll be the fun of seeing who came out since high school. I'm sure there are a few who stayed closeted all through school. Poor guys.

Whassamatter? Those polyester pants chafing?

no, seriously, you don't get it, do you?
you just fukked up all the fun - you had to be a dick - and I had to call you on it. you're a dick. that's it. that's all. pure and simple. asshole. seriously. is this getting through to you? nobody appreciates a party pooper. you killed the fun. everybody was passing the ball around, having a good time, and you had to go and pop it. Why? cos you're a dick.

/even the slashies know you're a dick

Do tell the prom queen to "Toss my salad"?

Also I kinda wanna apologize to anyone I may inadvertantly have been a douche to, just in case I'm on any "lists"...

On that note, do you think it would make people uncomfortable if I went around my reunion casually mentioning "Yeah, I was planning to kill you all senior year but then those Columbine farktards beat me to it."?

Language Barrier

If you're a highly paid lawyer, then i'm queen of england. 125k jobs out of law school are pretty rare, and they aren't generally given to the barely sentient.

No, really. I call total bullshiat.

What was your LSAT score?
Where did you go to school?
What area of law do you specialize in?

For starters anyway.

Quackedtheduck: You bring up a funny memory for me. I had a friend in HS that would pretend he couldn't speak English, and I was his interpreter, whenever we had a sub. He died a few years ago, sadly, I don't even know from what, because after HS, I just bailed and built a life. But man that was funny stuff, the other students just loved it.

I have found that People who stste their income on fark and in general are full of Shiat. People who make and have alot of money don't talk about it.

on the juice: I have found that People who stste their income on fark...are full of Shiat.

There, fixed it for ya!

Language Barrier,

So does keeping your panties in a wad like that help keep the sand in your vagina?

I kid, I kid...but really, dude, geez....

GCD

Thank you for not only proving my point better than Death_Poot but by making his comment appear weak compared to your self-congratulatory post.

/Don't seperate that shoulder!
//Schadenfreude! It's all the rage here at Fark.com!

PhaetonGrim

Thank You.

Good point, was a knee jerk reaction.....


Ya know, whether i make 80k, or 125k, or 10.00/hr really doesnt matter. The stereotyping in this thread tells me that very few have grown up, including me sometimes.

Personally, I am content where I am......got a roof over my head, and my family is fine and still here. Having a kid with cancer will teach you that nothing else matters, especially high school sillyness as to what you did 20 years ago when you were clueless.

TheWolfdog

AMEN! I wasn't fortunate enough to have someone email me to crash at my place. For one I live in Iowa. All the retards I went to HS with are from WV. Luckily I was just there for school but not born. Majority are still in WV so even if I am in Iowa least I feel I've moved up a step. Alot of them moved to Florida. Jacksonville to be specific. Wanna go kick some midget ass? LOL!

I agree though. College was more fun than HS. Still had some of the same BS but more enjoyable cuz I could just head next door to the bar after school and drown the pain in beer. HAHA!

I call foul on the salary claims of both Quackedtheduck and Language Barrier. Two seconds after I left college, I got a great job that paid all the money in the world. Logically then, since I have all the money in the world, you two can't be earning anything.

You're just jealous of me and my all-the-money-in-the-world job. It's okay to admit it.

Language Barrier

Hm. Ok, actually those answers sound pretty reasonable. Maybe you are telling the truth. You're still a dick though.

Blah, blah, blah...You make oodles more cash a year than I do...Let's argue about it, shall we?

Try making $28,970 (as a rookie) to risk your farking neck running into a burning building to save someone's life.

Try making $28,970 to pick up human limbs that have become detached from their respective bodies after a car accident.

Try making $28,970 seeing and smelling some of the worst shiat you'll ever imagine.

Try making $28,970 to see people die before your very eyes as you try and save them.

Try making $28,970 to have to tell someone's loved ones that they're gone.

All I have to say is fark you and your salaries.

Edgerunner

Um, I don't recall saying how much I earn.

And all I have to say to you, GCD, is it's time for a career change, if you are unhappy with any of this.

Come to think of it I probably could be making alot more money if I was never indroduced to Fark.

PhaetonGrim,

Far from unhappy actually. I left a very sucessful IT job to become a professional firefighter.

Why?

Because at the end of the day, I want a job where I can say that I made a difference. It's a personal sense of satisfaction. They could be paying me $1/year and I'd still be doing it.

I live, breathe and will die a firefighter.

I wanted to go to my 10 for one reason. There was this girl that was kind of nerdy, kind of skinny...hadn't really grown into herself as of HS graduation. She was really socially awkward too, which is kind of a shame because she was a sweetheart if you actually got her to talk - I guess she just weren't done bloomin' yet. From 10th grade up, I insisted to my friends that she was going to be smoking hot someday. They thought I was nuts...I just wanted to show her mine. I bet my two best friends then $10 each that someday they would admit that they would want to hit it (back off, a 20 spot was a big deal then). They readily took the bet. That was about 11 years ago. Sadly, none of us could make it to the 10 year but another friend who I am in touch with from time to time mentioned that she was there and described her as "gorgeous" and "stunning." Yeah, he said gorgeous and stunning...yeah, he's gay...and yeah, or no I suppose, the fruity bastard didn't take a picture for me. I guess I'm going to have to wait until the 20 year and hope that time is kind to her so I can collect my $20.

GCD FTW, and thank you.

Death_Poot

You can put your cock back in your pants now, no one wants to see it........

Except maybe all the band fags in here...

/Sorry, that was uncalled for, but I had to
//it was a joke

I'm too important to go back and actually read what you may or may not have said, Quackedtheduck. I'm sure my version of what you said is more correct than yours anyway, so let's just amicably agree that I'm always right about everything, especially the things that I'm wrong about, and move on. It's for the best, really.

GCD
I live, breathe and will die a firefighter.

Plus..the women love it...at least the ones I work with.

EdgeRunner

Well, I suppose that sounds fair.

Good, I must admire you for that, GCD. Doing what you want (I'm not talking about FARKING!) is something to which I still aspire. :(

/Getting there, though
//thread needs more slashies.
///slashies and cowbell

PhaetonGrim

And it is pretty damn hot. Mmm. Firefighters.

I never went to my HS reunion, but one time (a buncha years after I graduated) I was back in my home town visiting my parents, and I went to the grocery store to pick up something for them; the person bagging my groceries was the person who'd bullied me all through high school. She didn't seem to recognize me. She'd put on about 50 pounds, was missing teeth, and looked like she'd aged ten more years than I had. I always thought I'd be happy to grow up and see her miserable, but she was so pitiable that I just felt funny-peculiar.

/And no, she wasn't a jock

on the juice,

You're right. There's definitely no shortage of the ladies when you're a firefighter.

PhaetonGrim,

Thanks. You'll get there. Took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do with myself too...Once I found it though, there's no turning back.

The two idiots having the pissing contest about their salaries,

Come spend a day wearing my boots. Get your hands dirty instead of having a desk job pushing paperwork all day. You can have your $80K and $125K jobs. Neither of you could hack it as a firefighter....Period.

I also thought it would be fun to take a hooker to my 20 yr....Don't worry if I do I will post Pics.

High school reunions are for those lost souls that never got over high school.

I feel sorry for them.

/let it go

Gosh, I can't wait till after law school so I can associate with pleasant folk like that.

I dunno...

All respect to firefighters, but I'll take a cop first anyday...

My reunions have been a nightmare. Went to my 10 year in 1995. Had a decent time. Saw our former Miss California who got really, really big. Realized there is justice in this world. The 20 year was last July. What a farking nightmare. I will NEVER attend another high school reunion as long as I live. As was mentioned before, the "popular girls" (aka our cheerleaders) organized it. Out of almost 500 pictures taken, there wasn't a single one of me (and I am not scary looking). BUT, if I want to get a picture of one of our innumerable plastic surgery experiments, those are available. From many different angles, too!

/went to HS in the Los Angeles area...snob central
//now live in FL--my reunions were a stupendous waste of money

All respect to firefighters, but I'll take a cop first anyday...

You want to know what drives the ladies wild? I mean really makes them wet:

Four
Digit
Farkers

Language Barrier,

I come from a farming background. I know all too well what it's like to be putting in a hard day's work in hot weather.

I also know what it's like trying to climb 11 flights of stairs, carrying approximately 200 lbs. of gear with me, then having to fight a working fire because someone decided to get so god damn drunk they passed out while making kraft dinner.

That's great that you are sucessful and I'm not knocking it at all. It'd be a dream to get paid that much for doing something you love (ie: firefighting). But $125K for doing what you do vs. the $28,907 I'm making for what I do. Seems a little out of perspective, don't you agree?

Could someone post their penis length so we can hear Language Barrier say his is bigger? It would amuse me.

MayoBoy

Went to your user page:

ow!ow!ow!

Oh, and the ISP identifier thingy is creepy.

My 20-year reunion is scheduled for next year and I have absolutely no interest in going. So far only 18 people have agreed to go. Gonna be a night to remember!
