The popular kids are still the same snarky assholes they were in high school. It's all postering. I laughed my ass off when the popular blond in class showed up with her ex husband (also from the class) even though they split a few years ago after he fathered a child with some chick.

(I also drank like it was up to me to keep Jack Daniels in business, but that's what they're for, right?) For #5, print out all the gravatars of your readers (they're a handy wallet size, see) and when asked you could unfold them, comedy credit-card-file style and tell your friends you're having a hard time choosing. Argyle is too alluring to tie yourself to just one man, after all. I went to my school reunion a few years ago and had a great time!

Lie differently to everyone - see how many crazy stories you can come up with! I went to my 10th and enjoyed it. My husband's 10th was terrible. I didn't know any of them, but I could tell that none of them had done any maturing at all since high school and it might as well have been a homecoming dance in the gym with the cliquish way everyone was acting. I have my 20th next year. Should be interesting to see how Facebook affects it. I was a band geek too!!!!! I love Polt’s idea.

I think we have them here but I've never been to one. (High) school feels so long ago now. Be interesting to how how the people have changed. Lots will be married with sprogs etc. Good luck with it!

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 00:07:50 +0000 http://puntabulous.com/?p=11891#comment-471635 I was disappointed by my 10 year reunion a few years ago. In hindsight I am not sure what I expected it to be. Many of the people in my class have scattered all over the country. None of the people I knew who stayed within a few hours of our hometown were planning to attend. I did not have tons of friends in high school, and had kept up with the few people I was close with. Many of the guys I had considered attractive in high school no longer were. Some people looked really old. It was a little depressing. I did have a few interesting conversations, but I left as soon as I could. I am not sure if I would go back for a 20 year reunion. It is interesting that I have more "Facebook friends" from high school than I had friends in high school. I am "out" on Facebook, so at least I got the benefit of feeling like I came out to my high school class. No one has seemed to mind. These days, it is probably cool to have a gay friend. Try to have a good time. If you were more popular than me in HS you may have better odds of seeing people you may actually want to talk to. At least you can enjoy the open bar. :) I was disappointed by my 10 year reunion a few years ago. In hindsight I am not sure what I expected it to be.
