That does it. Its not like I was dfoing a fucking thing today anyway, but now this shit has triggered a repeat performance of Chappelle's Clayton Bigsby bit in my head...

What the hell is the name of the straight man who does the narration in that bit? I watched it last nite and its been driving me nuts since.

Hey MR

I know you're enjoying your new persona like the nerd who graduates junior high and moves to a different county before starting high school as a goth, but stop with the stupid fucking messages after posts and edits and pms. They aren't funny. They've never been funny. They make you look stupid. Change them to something that makes sense.

I know that you won't change them now because it will look like you're doing it because I told you to and your new image won't allow that, but someone needed to tell you.

A hyphenated first name? Does the family tree fork at all?
Does anyone actually look back at their prom with nostalgia? I had a good time, and I liked my dress and got suitably drunk and everything, but it wasn't that big of a deal. There were plenty of other nights, before and since, that meant a lot more to me.

Bad sex, Jim beam and tequila, helping friend who puked his balls off, waking up on floor of random guy's lake/beach house. Agreed. Piece of shit evening. HS was just warm up for College, where you actually learned how to really have a good time.

I suspect she had a quite memorable prom, out on the sidewalk with the principal banging her trunk. Comparing that to mine, I wouldn't give her a dime.

Prom was okay. But I got busted by my girlfriend making out with my date.* I didn't even have lip implants and she was like totally possessive anyway.

*Not trying to sound like some kind of stud, barely. I asked a girl who had graduated the year before to the prom long before I started going out with my gf. The girl I went with (let's call her Nina, because that's her name), I was obsessed with. My gf was just one of those month-or-two relationships. Needless to say, she didn't know I was obsessed with Nina until like 9:01 out on the balcony. Good times.

I am pretty sure any googles from work involving the word Playboy are going to trigger our filters, but that's not the entire story. This is all from memory, but I think that she has been the President of PEI for a while, but she's never actually run the magazine. That was Hef for a long time, then it was some other guys, then it was the guy who cut his teeth with Maxim or FHM or something like that. That guy has now been pushed out into some senior role, and the real guy behind the desk is someone else. I can't remember if it's a long time Playboy guy or someone else from outside. Either way, I don't think that Christy has even run the magazine. If memory serves, she is most lauded for pushing PEI into other sex services, many harder core, like the Playboy and Spice channels and some videos and stuff like that.* That has been far more profitable than the magazine in recent years. I'm sure someone with a looser firewall can fill us in.

* The articles aren't as good, though.

It's a loose correlation, but I suspect that it meant more to kids for whom High School was the peak of their lives.

If, say, you're the star linebacker that didn't subsequently play in college (or go), then chances are greater that HS and everything in it was fraught with meaning.

Me, I was the starting nose tackle, so ordinarily the prom and the girls who flung themselves at me would've been a huuge deal, but fortunately I went on to play in Division I-A, and that's made all the difference.

There are sometimes strings attached to them? Now THAT is fucking creepy.

Most of the people in my class made their prom dates first thing senior year. I was seeing someone most of my senior year, but we broke up in the early Spring. I was a little concerned that I'd end up dateless, and so I asked a girl that I'd been casually dating. The attraction was mostly that she was pretty cute and we sat next to each other in chorus.

By the time of the prom, I had grown completely sick of her. She didn't have sex, she didn't drink, she wouldn't be around me while I was drinking (her name was Martha and she eventually married a preacher). I had started seeing a couple of other girls fairly openly behind her back, and I would've broken up with her but she'd spent all the money on the damn prom dress and I felt guilty about breaking the date.

I stayed sober at my prom and took Martha home as quickly as I could. I then joined my friends in a night of drunken revelry that included skinny dipping in the fountain of a local college underneath the gigantic creepy praying hands. I never spoke with Martha again.

Who lives here?

Because sometimes, I am not so sure. It seems that your leader is under attack by the insurgents and people are standing around talking about funbags and funyuns and post counts like nothing is happening. Its like MR farted and Atticus is trying to shield his erection by talking about religion in italics. It dawned on me that when I posted the pic of , and Abba said "wtf is that" and a bunch of people responded taht people were not necessarily sure I was painting a pic of the Hairless Consig. Which is kind of astounding. This is compounded by some brilliant socking by the insurgents and even a clever story about someone living in the past and not realizing that a certain period in one's history is over. The only props I see are from old skoolers on these points. Is this because you people are a bunch of lemmings who fear overthrow of your dicatatorship or is it because you are simply too newber to get it? I didn't think the latter was possible, and it certainly isn't that my fellow insurgents aren't doing genius work. So its gotta be the former, right? Or is it the latter?

The love of my highschool life dumped me 2 weeks before the prom, so I went with a gay friend. We got quite drunk and made out on the dance floor, to fuck with people. It was fun, but not the best evening of my life.
