Graduating!!!

Our school voted on not having the grand march... save us $15/person and sure, we'll drop it!
 
I wanted to have an anti-prom party where everyone who wasn't going to prom would hang up streamers, play with balloons, drink spiked punch, and overpay for dry chicken! :P
 
I have my own anti-prom party every year. I sit at home in my dark room with a copy of The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzche and eat oreos.
 
I've found that all the crotchety old men around my town are transcendentalists. No respect for the real masters. My grandparents preach Thoreau to me all the time. On the other hand, I've tried to explain Schopenhauer to my mom because, as a yoga teacher, she likes the whole will-prior-to-being thing. She agrees with him in that art is more important to the human condition than philosophy, and used this against me when I threatened to drop art class this year! I still prefer Nietzche. Will-to-life is great and all, but it's will-to-power that really makes people interesting.

Well, by doverman's graduation year he has one year on me. With your ACDC song I'd say I have two years on you.

Sure.

I knew I got that degree in Philo for something...
 
speaking of Buddha.....


heh...

why don't asian people make clothes to FIT CHUBBY BUDDHA??????

I go to an asian store and pick up a 4XL for my husband (who is really an american 2 XL) and it doesn't fit him...my doctor who is a small woman (average to small) has to shop in the big girl section in Japan...I don't get it!! I finally had the last straw and said to the store clerk at the last asian store I went to...

"I love your clothes. I really do. i want to wear them. WILL YOU PLEASE TELL YOUR DISTRIBUTOR TO MAKE THEM BIG ENOUGH FOR FAT BUDDHA????"

she just laughed at me...she was probably thinking "fat american girl go make your own clothes"

as for "dating" myself...I think I did date myself to my senior prom..Actually i invited three people HEHEHEHE only two could make it....I had such a bad time I left early. Thunderstruck just doesn't seem.....prommy...hated high school too though that's a whole different topic and I just jacked this thread!!!! mwaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahah

Because Buddha died over 2,000 years ago and doesn't need new clothes? ;)
 
well yes...but if they would size them to fit his statues they might actually fit me heheheheheheheh

My graduating class (1987) was the first one in San Jose California to be required to pass a computer pompetency test to graduate...

Doverman,

Thought you might get a kick out of knowing that author Steven Brust (Jhereg, The Phoenix Guards, etc.) agrees that "pompetency" is a perfect word to describe computer geeks.
