Hi there, little weirdo. Welcome. Take a seat. You belong.

I quit Facebook and changed my name. The only messages from people I knew in high school are old friends texting to catch up from time to time. It's nice

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I deleted my Facebook 15 years ago. It’s on my list of top 10 best decisions I ever made.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

changed my name

In real life or just in socials? If in real life, damn that's some dedication!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

It's not why I changed my name, but it was a nice perk

I talk to one person from highschool, it's my current department head, he joined the company about 10 years before me. We've joked that this is the closest either of us will ever get to a class reunion.

The best part is we have a similar sense of humor and give each other shit during every team meeting. This is especially fun when newbies are in the meeting, we take it up a notch just to screw with them. Afterwards we of course let them in on the gag.... eventually.

This is so sad. Even weirdos deserve to farm those sweet, sweet, totally legitimate 1,900% yields

Are Becky and Kyle the new Karen and Chad?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Becky is Karen's friend who thinks she is cool because she's nice and doesn't yell at customer service workers but is actually a wet fart of a person and is just kinda boring. Kyle is... Well kyle is kyle. Everyone knows a kyle, maybe your kyle was called kevin (but I assure you he was still a kyle). Kyle is the guy who has it all figured out, if only "it all" was this years pyramid scam. Kyle is a nice guy! He wants to help you, really! He remembers that one time in high school when he tripped and you walked around him instead of stepping on his papers and he really appreciated that small kindness (like didn't get much love at home).

These are different from Karen and Chad. Chad is the Quarterback Soccer Captain of the Basketball team. He's got more meat on his jaw than a butcher has on display. He got married to Karen, they dated all through high school so nobody was really surprised, but what IS surprising is that the sports scholarship that Chad got a full ride to Good University with got taken away after his 3rd on campus rape, something that surely would've flown under the radar if he just managed to throw that last game winning pass. Karen, for reasons known only to her and her gods, always forgives Chad for his misgivings and misdeeds.

Becky's were before Karen.

"Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt!"

Thanks Sir Mix-a-Lot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Fun fact I learned recently: The band The Presidents of the United States of America did a collab with Sir Mix-A-Lot under the name Subset

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

That actually makes a lot of sense. Both Sir Mix-a-lot and PUSA have a huge Seattle hometown pride and presence.

You know why you get these ads?

I was also weird. I now make a living selling artwork for antidepressant ads

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I solved this problem for life by going to my 10 year reunion (a mostly Mormon town). I only went because I happened to be on a motorcycle trip in the region with a girlfriend, a certified Freaky-Chick™️.

I had my own bike, but chose to ride on the back of hers to add extra confusion.

Just to be sure I was not included any more, I loudly proposed we wait at least 25 years for another when the choices presented were 5 or 10 years for the next one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

I did something similar, was deep in the gothic scene at the time, put on my best makeup and goth bling, came with my equally goth gf, and behaved pretty out of it. My school time was hell, so it was fair retribution.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Me who didn't get into a group chat... 👀

Btw if you don't have a phone in school, you basically don't have friends. This is what society is like these days.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Btw if you don't have a phone in school, you basically don't have friends.

I can vouch for that. It's true. I'm early Gen-Z (200X) and I didn't have my own phone until 2012. And I don't have any contact from my school.

Am I the only one that read DM as Dungeon Master? I thought it was cool that they each discovered the joys of DnD after graduating.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So you uh, aren't getting these DMs I'm guessing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I was so confused lmao thanks for illuminating me. l Legit thought OP had some weirdass dungeon masters and was about to respond actually most don't do that you just got a find the one for you lmao

Arya is hardly the most weird character in GOT... Probably the most based character in the series.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The hound also doesn't get DM's about cryptocurrency

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

I can only imagine the crypto pitch to the hound.

A proper "fuck off" from him would be swift.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

ooooh that is why

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago (2 children)

i have literally no idea how anyone from high school would even find me to contact me if they wanted to

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago
[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

This is the way

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Me but I also refused to use Facebook so no-one could DM me even if they wanted to.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Why does it say cryptocurrency instead of pyramid scheme for the second caption?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Kyle is about to educate you on the precise definition of a pyramid scheme

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago

You know how you sometimes go to thesaurus to find synonyms so you don't repeat the same word twice

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I got an invitation for a wedding.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Everyone will get a gift basket that makes them have to buy crypto coins for a pyramid scheme that invests in cryptocurrency!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I was weird and still got the pyramid scheme DM. What about it?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Please file a complaint with your universe representative.

Their desperation level was higher than your weirdness level.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

I was in the same unit as some guys from my high school during my time as a conscript in the German army. Since then I've literally only ever met one of them briefly, thirty years ago. Apart from that I've had zero contact with anyone I've gone to school with.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Truly. WTF. 🤣 I recently checked my cobwebbed FB and saw a random message from someone I barely remember from school, inviting me to a reunion. I guess it could've been worse, but... bitch, what are you smoking? 🤦🏼‍♂️
