My list of “Things That Must Go” High School Reunion Version

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 @ 11:24AM

In no particular order

1. People who say that they will help you call and find people for the reunion and then disappear
2. People who want to talk to me when I am trying to get their information
3. People who still hold grudges from ten years ago...I don’t care who you are..I just need your information
4. People who don’t have email addresses? My grandpa (dead now a year) had an email address for crying out loud
5. People who complain about the cost of a completely catered dinner at Little America.....If you don’t like the cost volunteer to be on the committee
6. Mothers of graduates who give you the third degree when you ask where you can find their daughters
7. Mothers who want to talk to you for hours and reminisce on the good old days.  Listen, I’m sorry your daughter married that guy too but there is nothing I could do about it I was in Ohio serving a mission!
8. People who want me to comp their tickets to the reunion because they are helping with one portion of the activity. I am spending countless hours and I still have to pay for the thing!
9. People who have dropped off the face of the planet and no one still has contact with them
10. Reunions altogether

    Like Prom, reunions are for gay men and mothers of gay men.

    I can’t imagine gay men caring for either prom or reunions. Most of us never fit in in high school. The prom was something that kids who thought they were important went to. At the 10 year point I had no desire to go to a reunion with stupid high school losers. A few years later, I’m over it and wouldn’t mind going just to see the people I did actually like.

    So… I guess that’s a “No” to High School Reunion themed Mixers then, eh?… Sigh…

    High School Reunions are an opportunity to relive the glory days of high school.  If those are truly your glory days, you suck.  I am proud to say that I will never go to any of my high school reunions.  That’s not to say I won’t go to any, after all, my girlfriend can get me to do anything.  She even got me to to that thing with her thing in the thing.  You know, that thing.  Yeah, it was awesome… for her.

    After I went to my 5th year reunion, I vowed never to return and haven’t.
