School Sucks.
It's probably totally juvenile of me to desperately wish some of my old schoolmates would sign up for the new "school" userinfo feature, just so I can go and look at their journals and laugh about how miserable and pathetic their lives are now that they have shitty marriages and kids.
Yet, nevertheless, I totally wish they would, so I could read all about it.
What I'd really like is for there to be a way to make teh intarwebs cough up which of my most-hated classmates have since become crack whores and contracted and/or died of cooch rabies. Same for certain teachers. A tiny, withered, blackened part of me not only wishes ill upon my enemies, but wishes to watch them writhe in torment as life pisses kerosene into their open wounds. Shit, I'll strike the fucking match.
I realize there are probably plenty of you who have good memories of school, but I find it very hard to imagine anyone using the "school" feature for anything but Schadenfreude. Intellectually I understand that other people came out of school with happy memories, but I found it anything but upbeat and companionable. Jesus, it sucked so hard I couldn't even stomach the idea of college. To this day, I feel a wave of hostility whenever I drive past a school of any kind. School buses piss me off, too. So, viscerally, I am vaguely offended at having even that empty space on my userinfo, as if for some inexplicable reason I should WANT to fill it out.
I really hate the assumption that I am fucking nostalgic for that shit. Or that I SHOULD be.
And what stings the most? Most of those stump-toothed butt-mummers probably don't even remember me.
Rot, you bastards. Rot.
. . .
You know, I really have been pretty pissed-off the past few days, haven't I?
