Reunions
Those advertisements for high school classmate finding confound me. Hell, I barely know what to do about requests on Facebook.
Maybe it's just my own experiences, but I don't understand the nostalgia people associate with high school. What's with that desire to reconnect with those people? Fuck, I actually pray never to hear about some people again. Short of wishing them some karma once in a while, I just try not to think about the people I used to know when I was a kid.
High school was deplorable. There were two teachers whom I really liked, and that was it. The whole "friend" thing at the time was just... Eh? I dunno. Not good. Six people to hang out with, and only one or two whom I wouldn't wish crushed by a truck at some point.
So I get invites to things and from people whom I never want to talk to again, and the only thing I can think to reply with is "Damn, and we were doing such a good job at staying out of each other's lives. Now we have to start over."
There are a few people in university I hope to keep in contact with, but "lose my number" doesn't begin to cover how I deal with high school people.
Then again, "toxic" and "moronic" doesn't begin to describe some of the kids I hung out with in high school.
