Ah, yearbook signing

Colodia

It's kinda hard thinking up something unique and different to say to all the people you know and have asked to sign your yearbook for them. Sure I can go with the normal "Hey great knowing ya, have a good summer, hope to see you next year, blah blah blah"...buuuut that's just not in me to write that in so many yearbooks.

Last year when I didn't know what to write, someone suggested I write in people's yearbooks "In 30 years, your kids will read this. To them I say, "Run kids, run. Daddy/Mommy's crazy!" People got a kick out of that and remembered that a year later as they told me to sign their yearbooks again this year, which created awkward silence when another person next to them said I wrote the same thing in their yearbook too last year. :D

I feel pretty guilty when other people write whole 5-sentence paragraphs in my yearbook and I can barely write 2 sentences in theirs.

I ask NS, anything creative/funny I can put in people's yearbooks this year?

"Enjoy your summer, make the most of your life and I'm sorry I glued your butt closed."

I actually wrote that in someone's yearbook. :)

I'll never forget the times we laughed and cried. the many adventures we've had. The times we kidded around and the times we grew up. I'll never forget the choices we made and always wonder about the paths not taken.

may next year be a testament to this.

Most of my yearbook is full of inside jokes. Junior year, I told my chem class "no gay jokes!", so one guy wrote "This is a gay joke." , the next guy wrote "this is one too" and the girl after that wrote "put them together and you get this gay couple joke!"

Freshman year, one guy put "Please don't turn me into a frog."
Senior year, another guy wrote "Finally we're free from these intellectual dandelions we call peers. Spoon is a noun and a verb. Some day you will learn its true meaning." He talked to me two years later and simply stated "Just fuckin' with ya. There is no spoon." -_-'



One of my best friends put her message for me in a spiral with a peace sign in the middle, and the other did the same with a smiley in the middle. Of course, both had the header "Hippychick!" hehe

Of course, the resident psycho put the same signature in everyone's book. "May you live in interesting times. - God"

and a lot of "whatsup? nuthin here, pretty high, remember that time when the bong exploded?"

not much very funny...

I used to write the same song in everyone's year book and signed Smunkee at the end

*sings*

I'm a little N-U-T I'm as cute as I can be
I can sing and I can dance I wear pants under my dress
called myself up on the phone
asked myself if I was home
asked myself out on a date
said I'd be ready at 8
took myself to the picture show
I sat down in the very first row
got so fresh I slapped myself
and so I sing this song
I'm a nut in a rut, I'm a nut in a rut WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly, that's probably the nicest form of teasing we had for him. Except for arbitrarily shouting "Jew!" while pointing at him in the halls. The little freshmen got used to it eventually, but we still got funny looks.:D

"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole multi colored collection of uppers, downers, laughers, screamers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon."

I didn't. I only wrote things meaningful...usually. But girls did always tend to write more in mine. Usually they kept it down to a paragraph, which is good because I only had so much space for so many girls.;)

Write, "Oh man, remember that time at the fish hatchery?"

Years later, when they dig it out they'll read that and go, "No...wait, do I?" And their spouse will ask, "What happened at the fish hatchery," and they'll be all, "I honestly don't remember. I don't think I've ever even been to fish hatchery. I'm not even really sure what one-" and the spouse would cut in, "Oh you remember-you just don't want to tell me-I told you about that time on the ferris wheel in high school. You don't trust me with anything." and then later that week the spouse will start an affair that eventually ruins the marriage becuase they don't feel like the person who doesn't remeber the fish hatchery is opening up to them and feels emotionally distanced.

Yearbook signing...pfff. Our yearbooks don't come out till next fall, so my school is trying to sell us autograph pages we can put in the book. That way we don't have to run to every corner of the Earth to find all our friends (cause once high school is over you never see anybody again). Way to ruin an adventure you dumb shits! I like the idea of running around the planet trying to find people to sign the book, makes for an adventure.

Whatever, you could try these....

- "Keep the blue side up." - only works if you're a pilot
- "Keep up with science." - have no idea what it means, just happens to be on my t-shirt
- "I like my women like I like my tractors." - just cause it's funny

Or you could begin some random story using these Saige Dragon Story Starters(tm)....

- So it all began when I went out shopping for a new kitchen sink...
- Did I ever tell you about that time with the woodplaner and that cat...
- So, about your girlfriend/boyfriend...
- You know with enough duct tape and some spare breat implants you can...
- Have you ever gone to a bible camp yelling,"Praise Allah!!!", at the top of your lungs? I have and man was it...

I think proper yearbook signing involves writing some nice or disturbing memories of past experiences. Quotes from and part Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy are good, too. Also, You should write your number, email, nationstates account, whatever, in everyone's yearbooks and demand that they call you and hang out with you, especially if it is someone you barely know.

I think just writing 'have a good summer' indicates they don't wish to see you at school and don't like you either. uh. yeah.
