Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted June 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2015 I didn't have a terrible time at school by any means (especially from 2nd year onwards), but I have crossed the road, put on headphones, and got onto an escalator going up in Marks and Spencer just to avoid talking to people from school. I'm not the person I was then, they're probably not the people they were then, and I don't want anything to do with any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I left school in '99 and i can't remember a single name of anyone in my class (form). Have you suffered a major head trauma? That's some bad memory you got there buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted June 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2015 I left in 09 and I've just spent a while trying to remember half the people in the form which was all my year and pretty much everyone that was in my form when our school decided to put 6 from each year in one form. And there was only like 100 or so people in my year. Some people I guess just repress that period of their life in exchange for better times (I love University compared to school, college was alright) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted June 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2015 I was fucking awesome when I was at school (by my reckoning), and I'm even more awesome now. I'd be well up for a school reunion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil is brill Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I didn't have a terrible time at school by any means (especially from 2nd year onwards), but I have crossed the road, put on headphones, and got onto an escalator going up in Marks and Spencer just to avoid talking to people from school. I'm not the person I was then, they're probably not the people they were then, and I don't want anything to do with any of them. Â I've done similar things. The most far-out thing I've done though, one time someone from school recognised me and asked if I was at the same school as them. I said yes, and they asked if I remembered them and I flat out told them I had no idea who they were, despite the fact that I'd sat next to this person in multiple classes for 5 years. They couldn't get their head around it, they kept saying "but it's me, you must remember." Eventually they gave up. I have no desire to talk to pretty much anyone I went to school with.

Paid Members SiMania Posted June 21, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted June 21, 2015 I just counted the number of facebook friends I have from school -70. It suprised me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dart Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 We had a 15 year reunion last September. It was the first one as far as I know. About 40 people showed up, out of a potential 250, although I think less than 100 were invited through facebook. Several people showed up who aren't on facebook though, and there were a few people there I couldn't remember. One guy who was in the year below showed up, which pissed a few people off. It was specifically said only people from our year, no matter how many friends he might have had in our year. Â I suggested we do it every ten years to the organiser as I was leaving but she has already organised another one for this September. Probably give that one a miss.

TheShowOff Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Someone I know posted a bunch of posed photos at his Dad's burial site today which I thought was odd. I lost my Mum early this year, I know people react differently, but the idea of me posing by her tombstone to put the photos on Facebook is just odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted June 21, 2015 Moderators Share Posted June 21, 2015 On the school reunion thing, someone tried to organise a 10 year on leaving Year 11 one 4 years ago and it was cancelled in the end as no-one was too enthused by the whole thing. On a personal level, everyone from school who I wanted to still chat with and hang about with, I still do. If I've not made the effort for the others in the past 14 years, why am I likely to now?

Paid Members chokeout Posted July 6, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted July 6, 2015 According to Facebook the most efficient way to steal a dog is to go to a house when the owners are out and leave a chalk mark ( like a 19th century vagrant) then come back at a later date and steal the unsuspecting mutt. Not to take it there and then. That would be far too easy. Despite this being the most retarded way to steal anything ( and being well documented as a pretty obvious urban myth) it's now taken on a life of it's own on my feed and is being supported by all sorts of 'my friend found a chalk mark this morning) anecdotal evidence.
