Oh god. I just found out everyone I knew in high school is networking on facebook.
For a second I thought about opening an evil facebook account. Going through all of their friends I'm seeing people that haven't seen since mother fucking kindergarten. And a lot of them too. Great. Facebook. Now I can size myself up against all the people who didn't talk to me in high school and find out who won the game. LIFE, it's not just a bored game anymore.

2. Funny...I signed up on Facebook, and not a single
person from my high school class was on there. Buncha old farts, I guess, who don't do internet. Class of 1963.

4. That happened to me too recently
A couple of them I was happy to hear from, some... not so much. Some I unfriended after finding out they were assholes now, but weren't so bad in HS.

5. I was inspired to look.
Not a single person I knew back then. Unless, like me, they registered under a nom de guerre. But I didn't recognize any mugs of the older ones. I bet my classmates all on the Morse Code-net.

Even if they remembered me, I wouldn't remember them.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and I grad-jee-ated in '79. Old farts.

10. I guess if you don't open one
they'll all talk about you behind your back.


Don't feel badly, I don't have one either.

11. They'll only talk about you behind your back
if they remember you at all! :P

So, why remind them? ;)
