All Is Well at NS High!
Hey, I stopped into the chat room yesterday to see
how everyone was doing at the old high school hangout. Everybody seemed
to be great and there wasn't even any hot gossip. Well, that part is
kind of disappointing. I know it is there. I'll just have to dig deeper.
I've noted that a lot of the behavior of the formerly fat parallels the
high school behavior they never got to participate in. So, now it's a matter of establishing pecking orders, leaders,
followers, and so forth, but with little experience along those lines.
In my case, I was the class clown in high school and that's how I fit into the NS chat room. That's my high school type. What's yours?
I see lots of categories in there: cheerleaders, class president
wannabes, prom queens, outlaws, and skateboard weenies. The competition
is great fun to watch.
There are, of course, a vast preponderance of well adjusted people in
the chat room whose high school days were left behind when they turned
18. Or 21, if they decided to attend extended high school in the same
town (community college).
What's the point of writing this? Hell, I don't know. To inspire
controversy, as usual, perhaps? For entertainment value, perhaps? To
effect a decrease in the clicquish high school behavior? Nah, that
ain't gonna happen!
