I want anecdotes about things you've done, or have happen to you, that really didn't affect you in any way, but that you feel like talking about.

Go.

Oh, what's that? You want me to start? Why, ok, sure!

So my senior prom was last week..

I went to pick up my date and then we went off the my friend's house. We got a little lost at first, but then we found the house.

One of the other couples that was supposed to go in the limo backed out the night before and so it cost me (my parents) even more money. Their house was nice, the kitchen was huge and they had a slushie machine. Like, one you'd see in a movie theatre. The entire community is amazing, and rich.

Found out this I forgot the prom tickets at home. Sent parents to get them.

Limo came, was okay, nothing special.

Got to prom, took a few pictures with people.

Never needed the tickets.

Sat down with people I really wouldn't have, if I had a choice. Poor, obnoxious, inappropriate bastards.

The one bitch brought one of her birthday cards (who the fuck knows why), which screamed annoying things when you opened it. She seemed to think everyone else loved it as much as she did, so she opened and closed it every 10 seconds for about 15 minutes. She then complained about how her salad was brown (it wasn't) and refused to eat it and made all of us listen to her bitching for a while. She then refused to eat anything else, so she spent her time bitching at her date, and the rest of us. The condensation from my drinking glass got her birthday card's envelope a little wet, so she yelled at me, crumpled it up, and threw it at me.

Her prom date, a complete asshole, made a comment to her that he didn't even want to be there, so that ruined her great mood and made her sad (aww sad.gif) for the rest of the night. Needless to say, this made me feel better.

Other than being an asshole, her date also ruined an already fragile relationship between my friend and her boyfriend by telling my friend that the bf was saying shit. Why did he do that? Because he likes my friend and so he though "Hey, why not? Then I'll have a chance to date her!" I told him he never had a chance with her, and he was all "Pfft, no way. I totally do." He's a scumbag, just like the rest of his drugged up burnt out family.

The other girl and her date were okay, but they annoyed my date and me with their idiotic babbling.

The dinner was a buffet and so awesome. Well, everything except for the chicken. But let's overlook the chicken, as everything else was just so damn tasty. The ice cream was impossible to eat because it was frozen solid.

My date doesn't go to my school so she didn't know many people there, and she was one of the few black people there. She was surprised that no one was rude to her because of her not going to our school.

She got a call during dinner that one of the people that was like a mother to her had just OD'd on crack, so she was a little upset, but she was okay for the night.

One of the buttons on my tux popped off, and someone took my "Class of 2008" mug when I wasn't looking.

Right after prom we went outside with a few people and smoked a joint in the parking lot, then went home.

I didn't go to any parties because I didn't have a ride, but I didn't mind that much because I had a nice time just going home and watching crappy movies (Because I Said So) and then falling asleep.

JUST KIDDING! It was a hash pipe.

I sang the C sharp on the sixth page a little flat, probably because there'd just been a key change, but I wasn't singing great, my breathing was all over the place.

Why would I want a homeless drug addict back? Just because I'm still in love with him....


BTW, I know you're totes not him, because your spelling and punctuation are correct, and you don't end everything with a double slash, like:

No, he was a sketchy, pot-head native guy who never washed his hair. But damn, I love him. I would probably take him back. I would probably marry him. And you are invited to the wedding.

Curses. Foiled by correct punctuation again. That's how I lost all my money.

Also, I think I love you. If only I had a heart.

There was this one time that i started typing a post for a thread called "The anecdote thread about things that really haven't changed your life forever"

And i couldnt think of anything to say...And, you were there, and he was there...and all these other people began posting in the thread at the same time I was and all the sudden i decided to put an emoticon on it ;) and then i clicked Submit and i had to watch it load...

And then i waited for someone to reply, as i looked at other threads and decided to post on those, and start the process over...

I used drugs extensively while in college, including dropping acid 5 or 6 times. The experience did nothing to change my life whatsoever.

Go.

i took a shit earlier with bleach still in the toilet, and the smell of bleach made my nose hairs sting, and the other smell made me gag. it was great.

didn't change my life much though.

i can't believe i just read that... its that magic time between being tired and going to bed and actually going to sleep where i find something, anything, to do to stave off sleep for a few more minutes. bah.

my prom wasn't much different. ok, it was about 5 years ago, but basically it kinda sucked. sat with friends, drank a fair bit but not enough to have a really good time (booze was too expensive at the Hilton), danced badly, didn't have a date, friend had fight with his ex's new bf, nobody had any weed, and that was that. one big mehfest.

I'd always thought that airports were a good place to pick up women, I mean, when you sit in departures you tend to see some really attractive females - you've something in common in terms of going somewhere and everyone's sitting around doing not much so I had this idea that I'd spend a Sunday at the airport telling total lies about my impending [but fake] trip, hoping to meet someone who actually lived here and suggest we meet up on our mutual return.

So the other day I'd returned from some trip and I was very quick through immigration since I only had carry on and therefore I waited at arrivals for my friend to come through as well.

So I'm watching all these people come out of arrivals and I'm surprised that they're all pretty ugly. It kind of turned my idea of attractive people at airports because they're successful, traveling, enjoy life type of people.

So I realised something, people actually dress up to go on airplanes, they get all fixed up and smarter than usual but when they return, they're either slobbed out by holiday or they've come off a long flight and they're pretty frumpled.

So the departures idea is pretty good I guess but, well I had the idea that arrivals would be easier as I wouldn't have the problem of chatting up people only to discover that they were totally leaving this place.

However, I did see the huge percentage of stewardesses who come out of arrivals, which is fairly predictable I suppose so maybe that's the strategy to take.

Anyway, it's an observation that does nothing for my life, I'll still never actually carry out the plan of making it to the airport of a Sunday - might make a conversation piece for a dinner though.

I went swimming only a few hours ago, and i need ear plugs in order to stop water getting into my ears, however i lost 1 1/2 pairs of them during the swimming, it was fun but i couldn't hear anything until i gave up and just didn't go beneath the water.
*hates my ears*
