My 25th reunion is this coming Friday.  Looking forward to it since I lost all sorts of weight since last time.

I lost more than 40 pounds before my 30th reunion. Gained about 35 of it back by my 35th reunion.

This is the main hall at my high school Chaplin in Gweru, Zimbabwe:

I've NEVER owned a cell phone.
Or, if someone was far away, you wrote a letter. How many people on your Facebook page do you actually talk to?
I'm guessing not many.
I don't want to see most of them f**kers anyway.

This was how my high school looked when I was there.





Someone did realise this looks a bit drab and so they repainted it.




Because grey is a huge improvement on brown.

I just got an e-mail about my 30th (!) high school reunion, which is being held next month sometime. I ignored it.
I didn't like enough people from high school to want to be bothered.

I can understand that. The only reason I could think of to attend one for me would be to point out to everything how much I didn't like them back then and that seems like a waste of time and effort.

Agreed.  We all grow up.

I attended Eisenhower in Lawton, OK.  Found it somewhat ironic.  Graduated from a different school in Oklahoma City.  Haven't received anything about reunions and doubt I would want to attend.  I can be difficult and am not really endeared or on speaking terms with anyone from that time in my life. 
Ah, the good old days.

High school was relatively fun.  Still talk to a few kids on a semi-regular basis. 

Haven't gone to reunions but why bother when I see everyone regularly.

Most of the kids I hung out with in high school are dead or I don't know. I see everybody (it's a small town) but I hang out with none of them. Except Larry. I've known Larry since 1972.
I went to a reunion in 2010. I got out of school 30 years before. I showed up hammered drunk.
I figured I would give them how they remembered me.
Plus 30 years later I was still getting hammered.  :bluesad:

Lawton?
I have lived in Lawton, Michigan since 1969!
I moved lotsa times-but I always came back.
I live in Lawton now. Small town.  Pop.1,290 (give or take).

Somewhat similar here.  Smaller town from OKC 1.5 mil metro area, Lawton ~100k.  Currently, in Norman.  OU games are killer on Saturday.   

On a funny note, Lawton, OK was originally just the town by FT. Sill until a commandant suggested naming it after a Gen. Lawton.
Ah, the good old days.

100,000 is NOT similar to Lawton. We have 2 bars. One food store. A party store. 6 cops.
Who sit on there asses most the time-until they find a meth lab (and there are lotsa them out here in the boonies).
