This year is my 20 year High School reunion. I have no desire to attend it but I did get out some of my old yearbooks. High School (along with Junior high and elementary school) was a real shit show for me. “Bullying” was not a thing people gave a shit about back then. They did not have PSA’s with movie stars. No one 20 years ago was “#takingthepledge”. When I got beat up and went to the office they asked me what I did to invoke such an ass kicking. I’ll never forget sitting in the office of Mr. Sharp my Junior High principal. I guess he was tired of seeing me in there with various injuries. his advice was “can’t you just try and act less odd?”
Like I said, I did dig out my year books though and I found a couple photos you might get a kick out of.

I had two friends in High School and one of them I still work with every single day. As for the other hundreds of kids in that school, well unless they were disfigured in a horrible fire, I don’t really give two shits what happened to them. I certainly have no desire to drink punch with them and reminisce about the “good old days”. My good days started the day after I graduated and they just kept getting better.
