MrQ you made that prison rape thread your bitch today.
I think Bell Wines finally figured out that I will buy ANY liquor bottle there as long as it has odd packaging, is in a different language, and is covered in at least 1/8“ of dust.

:(
Is there anyone in DC who hasn’t been sick this month? This sucks.
According to the feature article in the Home section of the Post, you can buy cheap furniture online at this place called—“craigslist”!
fuck that Home section
i was going to say no, but i’m sick now! i can’t get rid of this cough
i started feeling way better then i relapsed or something. throat killing me.
i aggravated wii-shoulder with frenzied shoveling yesterday afternoon, since roommate and her boyfren decided that even though they both had the day off they weren’t going to do it ;_;
wii-shoveling is the worst game ever.
we’re just cats shovelin’ driiiiiive-waaaaaaaays
bleah
whyfor mopersville, tombot?
I wish that “when were you born?” thread was a “jaymc tells you when you were born” thread.
I wish every other thread would go fuck itself prison sex style
you shouldn’t make jokes about that
ow
i think my high school journalism teacher emailed me? but he didn’t identify himself as such and he has two of minnesota’s most common names, so i really have no idea.
i’m just going to respond with 8[
journalism class in high school?
i took journalism in high school.
oh, it was a complete joke. he also ran the school paper and i spent most of my time trying to sneak curse words past him (succeeded on two occasions, including my final “column,” which ended with “now let’s graduate the hell outta this bitch”)
I took journalism in high school, just to fill the last english credit.
yeah i wrote a killer indepth article for my h.s. paper about the National Honor Society that basically listed everyone that was inducted and that was the whole article.
Alex I am surprised you did not take a blogging class in high school—you are very good at it.
i want to destroy that whiny thread.
i actually won some sort of state-wide high school journalism prize for writing 1,000 words every month about how much i hated all of my peers and the entire mpls public schools system — NO WONDER I’M A BLOGGER
WHICH whiny thread, mw?
I took some ecology course which mostly involved going out for hikes and wading around in rivers on thursday or friday afternoons, and instead of taking a 4th math credit I had a period for “art independent study”* in the morning. plus two hours of band.
*“tom is bad at sculpture”
i pretty much just skipped class all the time
i would honestly be surprised if i attended more than 56% of my senior year
alex—the meta one.
photography was a much better h.s. elective than journalism—we got to hide out in the darkroom and listen to tapes.
my senior year i spent most of my time in the darkroom for class and for the school paper, pretty awesome.
i didn’t take journalism but i did spend a semester my senior year officially listed as aide to journalism teacher which meant sitting in the back of the classroom copy editing approx 1 issue of the student newspaper & otherwise doing nothing
I took the architecture elective 3 times and the teacher let me lead the class by the 3rd one. My guidance counselor still tried to tell me I’d probably end up changing majors in college.
i spent my senior year attending the u of mn part-time and attending high school aproximately not at all.
OMG I just remembered for the AP journalism class I took we participated in some big high school journo conference at Columbia and I did a presentation on online journalism. I INVENTED THE REMIX, 1995.
WOW YOU INVENTED THE INTERNET
my high school has a wikipedia page! i’m going to vandalize it.
no that’s awesome Brian, it’s also charming that your teacher let you teach class. that happened in my english class in h.s.— we suddenly started learning about South Africa for three days by our school’s version of Lisa Simpson
for senior year requirements at my HS you had to choose a lab focus. Options included ROBOTICS, BIOTECHNOLOGY, MICROELECTRONICS, OPTICS, (aka LASER LAB), and PROTOTYPING. I really expected that the place would have been inadvertently blown up by now.
LOL @ HS wiki
My hs had a gardening elective, which just let the stoners sit around and smoke in the greenhouse instead of on the loading dock.
The new building was made to counter the student unrest of the times. Windows are absent from the original building. Windows are prone to shatter easily unless expensive shatterproof glass is used. Structures of this time period tend to lack windows, which could be quickly destroyed by any violent protest around them, a common occurrence, making them at best expensive to replace and at worst a public safety hazard.
The building’s overall structure also was designed for the unrest of the times. From the outside South looks like a brick fortress. The building was made to be very stable, and its fortress-like structure was intended to quell student unrest and prevent a possible student revolt or uprising.

my guidance counselor was all “uh.. well, you know you can still apply to [Crappy Local State U]” (I had a 4.0 gpa and really high SATs & was like get me the hell out of this town!)
my public high school only had 3 AP classes offered but 2 of them were at the same time.. i took AP english and AP calc, I have no idea how i got through the calc other than sitting right next to some of the people who always did their work on time & copying off them
3.11 Jack Bauer’s visit
woah Alex was your HS in Planet of the Apes?

Mandy Moore’s visit
In 2000, Mandy Moore performed a concert at TJHSST as a result of a radio contest sponsored by now-defunct local radio station WWZZ (Z104). The contest was conducted via online voting on the Z104 website. Students were allowed to vote for their school as much as once a day, for the duration of the contest. However, because the voting system had no way of verifying who was voting, several TJHSST students wrote a number of various computer scripts that generated rapid, automatic votes for TJHSST, randomly choosing a member of the student body to vote as.
I leant how to bind books as a elective (also reflexology and particle physics as well IIRC)

THERE ARE DINOSAURS QED
thanks for the phone call last night, pete! btw you are v v pretty :)
aww
hahaha my guidance counselor in my junior year called me in and said “Hey we should sign you up to take the PSAT sometime soon.” I had already taken the SAT twice so I said, “Yeah, I’m a junior, we should be discussing colleges and stuff.” HAHAHAHAHA, yeah thanks for the guidance.
wow, reading my HS wiki has plunged me back into a world that I had largely forgotten.
...if successful, TJ3SAT will be the first satellite launched into space that is built by high school students.
Same nerds, more technology.
I dropped out of high school! And I has the flu :D
seriously you guys don’t know how hard I’ve worked just to reach a basic functioning level of social interaction.
tom, no windows in your HS either? no wonder we’re so angry.
yeah me too Brian.
xpost—mr q, exactly. i’m still pissed off at the guidance counselor. he could give a rat’s ass. no matter how talented the students.. if we all went to the local community college, that was good enough for us
no windows for us neither, “open classrooms,” and a wikipedia page dedicated almost solely to the two things we were sort of all right at: wrestling and it’s academic.
my guidance counselor suggested community college too!
i’m very happy i made it through h.s. unscathed. we had open classrooms for awhile but then they closed them off?
I did the Columbia journo conference too—spring version and summer version. I didn’t get to be EIC of my paper because my friend kissed the journalism teacher’s ass more—so I was managing editor.
My guidance counselor kept urging me to take our hs’s apparently v. extensive advanced math and science courses, because I’d need them in college. I didn’t.
Haha we had open classrooms with sliding walls and the slid all the walls closed because they figured out that open classrooms didn’t work. Result: we could hear about three other classes going on from the class we were in. Also, our library was open and basically just in the middle of the school—you would pass through it to walk to classes.
my guidance counselor’s signature move was the “don’t get too hung up on your dreams—there are a lot of other options out there!” I hated her.
we shared lighting with other classrooms across the hall when we had open classrooms, so we would plunge into darkness when the class across the hall watched history movies/filmstrips/pron???
My guidance counselor recommended I leave forever and ever because it wasn’t working out! Thing is, they actually hate teenagers and wish they’d fuck off, FYI!
i saw my guidance counselor about twice in my high school career? there was only one for the biggest public school in minneapolis... so she didn’t give me much guidance. i only ended up applying to two colleges and just relied on good SATs to make up for totally mediocre grades and laughable attendance.
yeah i only applied to two colleges, only got into one, a party school, but then i transferred out of there for my sophomore year. i was clueless but i don’t blame my guidance counselor.
my high school had lots of windows.. it’s a fairly old building. i definitely had to work pretty hard at basic social skills after 4 years there though, nearly all my friends were crazy
i applied to a couple of decent liberal arts colleges & a couple of ivies because i had a chip on my shoulder & figured i belonged there.. got into one of them but thank god i couldn’t afford it & therefore didn’t go!
UH ZR THAT WAS AN IMPORTANT POST YOU MADE
