After junior high, it was a relief to start tenth grade at a large (~3,200 kids) H.S.
A big part of that was an excellent orchestra with nearly 100 members which played some challenging stuff. Plus the relative anonymity of a school that big which was also good academically.
Bummer about the way you were treated by the tables; probably anti-Viking sentiment. Are you going to put them on your “To Be Pillaged” list?
I was 14-y.o. in that picture and vividly remember not giving the slightest fark about a class picture; I just wanted to graduate and be done with that carphole.
Oh, I was thinking “take up the slack, then pull straight back, slowly applying increasing pressure. Don’t try to anticipate when the shot will go off”.
G’mornin’, GN!
Despite my curmudgeonly nature, that thread pic warrants an “awwww”.
Larryville’s weather today feels autumnal; yay! (But I’m glad I don’t have to go back to school on Tuesday…)
Recently found this copy of my junior high class pic online; you can see how engaged I was. (I could hardly wait to end that three years of hell.)
A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Fatwa!
Junior high -- I spent one year at one school and the next at another, across town (we moved). Not fun times.
Heya, Paddy --

Cool! A picture of little Fatwa!
Happy Sunday, GN.
The tables were quite unkind to little Sven yesterday. Oh well, at least I still have a job at teh bestest place ever.
Hai, Sven!

Sorry about the NSFW caption but I couldn’t resist the opening.
Hai, Mac!
Appreciate the sentiment, however I’m appalled by teh language. 😉
I understand. Assault rifles are worse than genocidal child rapists to today’s liberals and there was not a single trigger warning given.
AFAIC, most proper trigger warnings end with “…or I’ll shoot!” 👿

As penance I will not watch any GofT episodes for 30 minutes.
Hahahahahahahaha!
