    I ran across this video and thought about the bullies, rich kids, the handsome & pretty popular kids from school. If some of them aren't dead, I know about there successes and failures. For the ones that were real jerks, they are still jerks and there's a lot of truth to this video.

    This needs to be shown to the "it" kids in school today.

    Class of 75. Moved out, moved on, never looked back.
    Rumor going ‘round the alma matter is that I became a Bush pilot and died in a crash in Alaska. Far be it for me to set that record straight. Can’t buy publicity like that.

    I might show up for the five oh......, just for shits & grins. On the other hand, I may not :unsure: :rolleyes:

    Yeah I haven't run across anyone that is successful and has their shit together that was the popular or 'hot' guy/girl in middle or high school.

    In HS I dated the prom queen (both years!) and looked her up on google years later to only find stories or bad decisions, bad luck and some really out there shit like she had dated some professional athlete and married him, had kids only to have him basically be indited for molesting underaged kids at a summer sports camp and then flee the country leaving her broke. She was too skinny for me anyways.

    I also found a few people from high school; the type you wondered what did they end up doing, and it was a bunch of fail, obesity and arrest photos.

    The one I'm still curious about, is this one asian chick in like 3rd grade we all teased. Her name was Ada and we'd all chant 'Ada, Potata' over and over when she was around. I have no idea why, but everyone did it, all the time, so of coarse you just continued to do it. There was no real reason to; she wasn't the smelly or weird poor kid, she was just quiet and kept to herself and read alot.

    I'm convinced that she is a 6 foot tall super model that cures cancer as a hobby and has an entire livingroom full of mini giraffes.

    Did the rumor also include that you had a passenger named Brian on your final flight, whose only personal possession was a hatchet on his belt that his mother gave him?

    Class of '68', I keep up with a few of them, mostly all good, down to earth, folks.
     
    The teacher’s pet, smarmy little know-it-all prick who always let you know his daddy had money, his ACT score was higher than yours, etc. just the typical little asswipe you love to hate. He ends up with an engineering degree, becomes VP of his company. The cherry on top is he is a liberal douchebag too. I hate it when complete dickhead liberals are successful.

    Fast-forward a few years and he has a massive heart attack that causes him to be in a wheelchair permanently. He recovers and I see him at my 30th reunion. I thought he would be humbled and a little more contrite. Nope, still a dickhead. I parked my rental car in the lot and he sees me and proceeds to tell me how he got a custom BMW rigged up with hand controls, so he can drive. He says, “I bet you thought I would drive up in a handicapped minivan didn’t you?” I responded, “this may be a surprise, but I don’t think about you at all and I don’t care what you drive, Mike. This is the last conversation I’m having with you tonight. You never learned your lesson and you’re still a prick.” He just rolled away and I haven’t seen him since. LOL!!

    My graduating class was on the smaller side. Like around 80.

    Many of us grew up together our entire lives and went to school together all the way from k through 12.

    Still talk to quite a few and our reunions are a blast. And ones that I dont tak to as much, when we do get together its like time never passed.

    Graduated 12

    Wasnt a cool kid but had friends in every group. Jocks, cool kids, emo, druggies, rednecks, nerds, etc. I was friends with all of em.

    never went to college, didn’t keep Up with anyone else. Last time I was on fb many moons ago I was doing better than most. Moved out on my own and owned my own business at 20, owned a house at 23.

    I extremely rarely ever think about anyone from HS.

    Whenever I see douchebags from HS fail epically now just makes me smile.

    Did that show up in an internal training class.
     
    Went to my first class reunion a couple of years back (class of 82). I, like a lot of you, graduated, left, and never looked back. I actually had fun and would have paid $100 for name tags. I recognized very few. I've haven't changed one bit ;)

    I haven’t aged much either. I look a lot younger than what I really am.

    People from high school recognize me a lot. That’s funny because I thought I was sort of a nobody,

    I went to a 15 year reunion out of curiosity and recognized two or three people because they changed so much.

    The jocks got fat and bald. The real hot babes looked like 40 miles of a bad gravel road.

    The ugly girls from school went through an amazing metamorphosis! How the heck did these gals turn out looking like supermodels?

    That’s the last, and only one I attended. I don’t care to go to another one.

    There’s one dick-head that I’d like to see again. He always treated me like an idiot.

    I discovered that he likes to write rubber checks. Lots of rubber checks!

    I can’t wait to ask him where he gets so much rubber.

    Never really got the concept of those lame ass High School reunions. I mean if I actually cared about them people still, I'd have stayed in contact with them. I've seen plenty of people I knew from High School who are now working at places like Best Buy or Wal-Mart. The conversation that ensues lasts no longer than 2 minutes.

    I fucked just about every chick in HS
    Today,most of them are nuts, losers or dead.

    It's a shame really when most of the privileged kids are dead or wacked out from dope.
    One girl who was my neighbor, was and outstanding person.
    She was the manager of a large nationwide anchor store in a large mall.

    She died of an overdose with a needle hanging out of her arm in a bathroom stall.
    I looked into it, found out her new boyfriend turned her into a junkie.
    I don't want to hear about people being weak or choices, it's life and it chews you up sometimes.
     
    "I fucked just about every chick in HS...today, most of them are nuts, losers or dead."

    They say correlation does not imply causation, but ...
     
    I'm pretty much out of pocket for a couple days, and y'all go apeshit around here.
    The fucking TV stand is knocked over, maple syrup on the floor, y'all are running around the room like retards chasing fireflies.
    Talking about this high school shit. I've had to tell my youngest time and again, "that shit means zero, nada, less than nothing". Bullies and cool kids end up in prison, catching a bullet, or getting a lasting attitude adjustment....always.

    As I age I see the 70/20/10 rule becoming a universal constant. 70% do ok, 10% do very well and 20% are miserable failures.

    I also notice myself not giving a crap about people who aren’t in my favorites list on my phone.
     
    I grew up in a small town..........736 people........graduating class of 31............it's been almost 50 years, and I went to my 20th class reunion..........nothing had changed then, the only thing that has changed today is most of them are dead.........

    Many of them died in car wrecks in their teens or twenties or OD’d on heroin in their late 20’s.

    Some are happy and successful.
