and here's something
weird: my place
in Humor 3-space

Thursday, May 08, 2003
 
Why would I go to my ten-year high school reunion? Jackie went to my high school and college, and we still hang out a lot. I play in her band. She's supposedly a good friend. So why is she trying to get me to go to what EVERYONE KNOWS is the most unpleasant event in the world? I would rather suck on cream-filled turdsicles than go to some awful Wall Street bar and talk to a bunch of blue-shirted gel-hairs who practice phantom golf swings while describing "B-school." Which is what I heard the five-year was all about. I didn't go to that, either, because I chose to spend the night licking the musky balls of the homeless at the shelter near my house.
     If there's anybody I still want to talk to from HS, I'm still in contact, ok? Jackie says "It'll be fun! Just like Romy and Michele!" I mean come on now. I think you have to have a seriously stunted imagination not to be able to predict the carnival of torment a reunion engenders. It's on the Big List of Uncomfortable Situation Clichés, right up there with The Blind Date with Fat Smelly Dude; Getting Dumped by Person You Don't Even Like; Caught Sucking the Wife's Dad's Cock Again; Ran to the Basement When the Zombies Came and Their Screams Are Getting Louder and There's No Way Out NO WAY OUT OH MY GOD; the Job Interview Where You Don't Notice the Semen Stains All Over Your Clothes Until it's Too Late; and the Whoops I Didn't Know That Gun Was Loaded But Hey, Where Did My Little Brother's Face Go? It's a sitcom plot. It's a setup for a joke told by a molesty uncle. It's prototypically un-fun.
     I can't even visualize myself attending the thing. Am I slouched in a chair, trying to look like I don't give a fuck, but being unable to muster even the vaguest semblance of aloofness? Am I turned facing a corner like that dude at the end of Blair Witch? Am I throwing forks at people's heads? No. I am none of the above. I can't go. In fact, my inability to go to my ten year reunion kind of defines me: I Am He Who Is Not At The Reunion.
     So go ahead, Jackie. Try to not feel like a worthless fool as your explain your life to some idiot bitch whose monthly makeup budget is higher than our combined gross incomes. Try not to care about the opinions of people you always despised but still hope you can impress, somehow. Try to spend less than five hours obsessing over your outfit before leaving the house. Try to drink enough plastic-bottle vodka from the open bar to blot out the atavistic fight-or-flight agony of reawakened popularity contest fucktardation.
     Or we can just hang out at my house, shoot pure Turkish heroin into our eyeballs, and join all our classmates at the big reunion in hell.

DISALLOWED FOREVER

"I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!"
-
"from whence"
-
"...the exception that proves the rule"
-
any use of the question "spit or swallow?"
-
the phrase "drop trou"
-
fake-o reviewer verbs:
"penned" for wrote
"helmed" for directed
"lensed" for whatever
-
"expat"
-
the euphemism
"passed away"
-
pronouncing merci beaucoup as "mercy buckets!"
(see also: "grassy-ass!")



PET PEEVES

"confinscated"
-
trying children "as adults"
-
"drownded"
-
misuse of reflexive pronouns, as when someone says "Please talk to Bob or myself." Come on people now. "Myself" is not just a fancy version of "me"! LEARN IT.
-
tattoos in the Courier font
-
any use of Comic Sans
