Wouldn't Darwinism take over at the point?

Signed up for Facebook- registered for my class (1991), and sat back.

I honestly expected to get no adds as a friend from my class (I loathed high school with a passion...loathed it)- two weeks go by, and nothing.

The last two people on earth I expected to asked me to add them from my class.

I honestly don't know what to make of this. (I added them- on the thought that its been almost 20 years and people change.) Still, I was a miserable bastard in high school (and I did it to myself). They asked me to attend a mini reunion- again, I don't know what to make of this.

(sorry if I am babbling...I just need a different spin on this)

Can anyone shed some light as to why I should attend? I am just really confused right now.

Reasons to attend:
(1)people do change, they may have
(2)because you are curious as to what has gone on in the lives of the others from your class
and...
(3) :smt066 :smt068 :smt067 :smt070 :smt071 :smt074 :smt073 :smt075 :smt076 :smt084

But don't go if you really don't want to go.

I haven't enjoyed the reunions I've attended. Too many doctors, lawyers, etc. flaunting their success.
Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?

I have changed too- but am I comfortable in that situation? Not yet. There's more work to be done here- let's just say that for a very long time my self esteem wasn't the greatest and it took some very understanding people to start to bring me out of it.

So stay home then. You can always go to the next one if you feel more up to it.

And I say KUDOS to those understanding people! :-D People who help people are so needed in this world, and such a blessing.

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow? Only to be troubled and insecure?

How come men press harder on a remote when they know the battery is dead?

Or shake the remote hoping to get one more button press...

A good lawyer would point out the frail stature of this last person, and expound on the neglectful, irresponsible self-care of a couple portly individuals who had already been aboard.

How could this frail, skinny person possibly be held accountable for the demised brought on in part by the excessive eating habits of others?

How's that for spin?
