midnight Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I was contemplating going, but after browsing the reunion’s Facebook group, I think I’ll pass. I don’t even remember but maybe a handful of those people. Also, it’s gonna be at 2:00 in the afternoon. Who does that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not on social media, so I have no clue if there was a ten year reunion back in June, but I'm only going if they allow legal age teens in as well because it should be all inclusive. I'm not going if it's just the old, senior citizens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority either died or went to prison. The rest of us typically avoid each other. They didn't do a ten year but did do a 20 year. I didn't go to it.

I got along with almost everyone in school, but I hated school. And after so many years, I don’t have anything to catch up on with any of them. I don’t care what they’re doing these days. And 2:00 in the afternoon. Burgers and hot dogs. Everyone is asked to bring a side dish. Plus, you have to pay to get in. It just sounds like a whole lot of hell no to me.

Ours is on a Saturday. 2:00 in the afternoon is too early and too inconvenient of a time for us. Disco and I don’t have a terrible amount of free time, and when we do, we can think of a million things better to do than go to a reunion. On the other hand, it would give us a break from the kids and housework. Also, there was no mention of alcohol. I don’t drink, but I might have to in order to tolerate most of those folks. I don’t remember many of them, but I have to converse with anyone about sitting next to them in whatever class, I’ll need to be buzzed to keep up with that crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that early, but about 4(?) which is more reasonable. Mine was at a bowling alley (the only thing to do in the town besides ONLY drink) so drinking was implicit. I feel like drinking is implied at most of these things. Speaking only from the experience of my own, there was some "What are you doing these days" conversations, but nobody cared to discuss high school. I feel the whole "converse about sitting next to people in class" was a misconception we all had about reunions and all worried about. But also speaking from experience, it's sort of a largely missable event. I could've gone without going, but I was in the area because my spouse and I planned a trip to the zoo the following day, to celebrate the red panda's birthday.

Your school would eat my school and shit it back out. But I’m not gonna lie, I totally dig the maple syrup concept your FFA has. Sounds like a very rich community, in maybe Vermont or New Hampshire?

Very much probably soccer moms who have to eat be in bed early so they can go to church the next day.
