Oh, and by the way KSNewbie, I graduated in '99... so here goes.
1) Were you a bully, nerdboy, loser, or invisible other in high school?
Actually, I fit into neither of those categories... I was one of the most intelligent in my class however. I was never picked on past 8th grade, because after that was when I started to grow like a motherfucker, and my martial arts skills were peaking at the same time. I may have been a brain, but I could have probably beat the hell out of most of the bullies.
2) Do you think that kids can be so mean as to justify going Columbine? Any sympathy for the picked on nerds that strike back?
In general, I'm always a sucker for an underdog, but that's just ridiculous. I have no sympathy for the two fuckers that did it.
3) Did you love going to high school and the whole popularity contests, school spirit, having your voice crack, growing hair in strange places, and popping zits? Or did you cut classes and are just happy to have made it out of that hell hole alive and with some shred of sanity?
Band was the shit... Being a musician was the best part of high school. Most all of my memories are band-related. Other than that, I am glad I was able to get the fuck out of there in one piece.
4) So do you now understand why you had to learn Algerbra, history, and industrial arts? Aren't you using it everyday?
Algebra is second nature to me. What the blue fuck is "industrial arts"?
5) Name the best things about going to high school (significant events like losing your virginity etc.).
Senior year was the exception to the rule... it was a blast. Two trips in one month... one to Six Flags in Jersey, then to New York City/Manhattan, then another to Canada's Wonderland outside of Toronto!! TWO COASTER PARKS!! Whooooeeeeee!! Unrelated tangent... when we arrived at the school in Jersey that the band competition was in(which we swept, by the way), everyone was standing outside... see, this was about a month after Columbine, and there was apparently a bomb threat, not unlike the dozens of copycat threats we got at ours around the same time...
<loooks at paragraph> Shit, I am turning into CFL!! ARRG!!
6) Any teachers/administators that you would have loved to see keel over and die?
Mr. Smith, the VP, was a fuckhead assclown. I would shed no tears for that shitheel if he would die...
7) Ever have a crush on a teacher and/or an affair that you now feel safe in revealing?
Not really.
8) Did you feel the need to act like a moron or did you take pride in being the first nerd to raise your hand to answer the tough questions?
I knew a lot of answers, but I was usually too damn lazy to raise my hand.
9) Do anything that you regret in high school (like beat the crap out of kids or moon the janitor)?
Wasting my time eating bagels and playing Jenga before pre- calc instead of doing something worthwile, like skipping class.
10) Have you gone to any reunions or do you plan to or are you just going to forget that high school ever happened until you can track down the people you hated and gut them like fish?
No reunions yet... only been a coupla years.
