I have no desire to hear these same watered down stories while everyone's falling over drunk. It's about 20% more pathetic, I calculated, which is saying a lot, because my graduating class is pretty damn pathetic.A Beer for the Showerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029139745335325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114132119792854667.post-64879200242490764502012-08-05T00:50:42.443+09:302012-08-05T00:50:42.443+09:30I attended my first one (10 year).

I didn't have a lot of friends in high school, so there's no reason to think they would be friends now.

I couldn't think of anything worse than tagging along to a party where I don't know anyone, and essentially being there as an accessory for your other half to show off how they've moved on with their life.
