Lesbian Teen Sent to Fake PromFollow

I shouldn't have laughed at that, but I couldn't help it.

Sounds like any other school I've ever heard of or seen.

Another article. 2 of the kids at the fake prom apparently had hearing disabilities. Nice of the school body to think they didn't deserve the real location. Sending the kids with handicaps to the fake prom is even lower than sending Constance. At least they could *possibly* make an argument for being pissed at her for "ruining" their prom, even if justified. I doubt the disabled kids did anything wrong.

Plus, it seems that Constance received her prom info from someone on the committee just before the day of the dance. It wouldn't be surprising if the vast majority of the students had no clue Constance wasn't told. Apparently, she's had it rough since the school canceled the prom--a lot of kids abandoned her. She wouldn't exactly be chatting with tons of people. As long as no one was screaming about the second prom, she could easily not have found out.

[EDIT]

Apparently, she had been turning down offers from various celebrities to throw her a prom (which, undoubtedly, would have been way more impressive), because she wanted to go the school one.

My school had a very similar situation, actually, that we handled quite similarly except in that we held out super secret party in San Francisco at the home of my best friend's father and invited the entire class including the silly **** that was barred so that we could enjoy his presence because we liked him and wanted him there. I was not at my prom because of his exclusion.

So f'uck you.

Really? No mass hazings were you guys come from? I mean, if you can't work up the courage to say you hate someone that everyone else does too then you're really pushing the boundaries of cowardice there. I mean, in both of the secondary schools I attended plenty of people were vocal about hating people only they hated, people who were generally very popular or people who only people in their clique hated.

Since learning my school experience was atypical, I've been evaluating other areas of my past, and I've found them all to be as outstandingly badass. I don't know how I never noticed before - some of these things are just insane. When I was only a year old a rottweiler leapt into my pram and I snapped its worthless neck with my bare, somewhat pudgy hands. When I was seven I got lost in a cave and couldn't find my way out. rather than stay there I ground the mountain to dust and dug my way out. I had my first erotic experience when I was thirteen, when some woman smashed a bottle on my crotch in a bar fight. Later that night I *********** in the bathroom with a handful of broken glass. I guess the pinnacle of my badass exploits so far was when I hitched a ride to outer space on the back of a saturn v. Now, as any astrophysicist will tell you, when you're as bad as I am, breathing in space is no problem. No, the true test was re-entry. As I fell through the atmosphere at mach 30 I felt the burning air clean the dirt from my body. Only the superior material comprising my own body could withstand the tearing sound and searing heat. And that, my friends, is how I've washed ever since. So if you ever think "wow, that Kavek bloke is a bit whiffy", well, I'm sorry, but rockets are fairly infrequent.

So, yeah, after examining my own life more closely I've realised it's unfair of me to expect other people's lives to compare to my own. I apologise for the disservice I've done you, Moe.

If you're talking about your response where you talked about the gay guy, that puzzled me somewhat and I can only assume your inference as to what I was getting at in the passage you quoted there was faulty.

This was self-indulgent rather than funny and self-indulgent. I kept reading it and thinking you were about to write something funny but then it never happened. I hope you didn't think this was a good post, because it just wasn't and I'd appreciate it if you did better.

The one that the majority of the students attended.



I get your point. I have gotten your point. You seem to be missing mine.

If these parents arranged two proms and only told the undesirables about one while the rest of the student body was informed of the other, that's despicable, cruel, and in no way what any student deserved.

Get it? I'm not saying she should've been invited to the super secret prom. Only that she shouldn't have been led to believe that the one she was invited to was the only prom and that everyone would be there.

I've noticed.

So, what's your excuse?
