School Sucks

This past Sunday my dad was watching a very old recording of Billy Crystal doing stand-up, and Billy had this (way too long if you ask me) bit of an annoying character at his 20 year High School reunion. He kept going on and on about how great it is to see everyone after all these years, and how great it is to get together every so often and reminisce.

Now I've heard people say things like that from time to time, but there really is no reason to get together again, or reminisce. Some people either didn't know about 80% of his high school (my school had a large class size)and about 19% were dicks to him for a majority of his time there. I'm not harboring a grudge or anything, it's just why do we have to talk, or meet up? We most likely grew apart? We probably have zero things in common, save one: we went to the same high school. That doesn't make me want to "catch up." I cannot believe this mentality has never crossed over into the dating world!

Guy: Hey, baby. Want to go out with me?
Girl: Ewww. No.
Guy: Why not? I mean, we're shopping in the same Home Depot?
Girl: Oh yea. I love you.
Guy: I know.
(sorry, I had to throw in the cool Han Solo line)

Stupid. But for the select few who I'd love to catch up with, feel free to contact me. And find out if you make the cut for Varsity!
