man, i remember back in high school, prom and homecoming were the most important shit
it had to be perfect
you had to spend this much money for it to be right
you needed to go eat here and act all grown up
i look back and laugh at how stupid i was
That's how people end up not having fun. My friends were always broken up into 3 camps.
1. The ones who tried to make it perfect and failed miserably (these would mostly be girls).
2. The ones who wing it and have an awesome night (also, the ones with no dates).
3. The ones who were too punk rock for school dances (or too high to get through the door).

At a formal afterparty for a few of my friends, they were drinking on a sports oval and 3 cars full of samoan gangsters turned up and bashed anyone they could catch.
I went to some of my high school dances thinking that I'd never get another chance to and I might regret it. They weren't bad but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't give a shit if I had never gone.
junior prom rocked. went out of town for dinner. watched my chick make out with her best friend. fairly chill dance, for a school thing, then my friends and i got our cars and raced them through the city waypoint style. S2000 vs. 300ZX Twin Turbo vs. 67 Chevelle. then i tagged my girlfriend.
one of those ice cube "today was a good day" sort of things
At my high school prom there were rumours going around that I was going to get "jumped" and I shouldn't "show my face there" because it would "get broken."
So naturally I went and nothing happened.
The end of sixth form ball was terrible because the organisers just basically had a massive circlejerk and gave each other awards, paid a guy in our year something like £300 to connect his laptop to the venue's PA system and played overly-loud trance "mixed together" using the WinAmp crossfader plug-in so we couldn't even talk to each other during dinner. It was pretty bad.

The one about the fucking space hairdresser and the cowboy. He's got a tinfoil pal and a pedal bin
You tagged your girlfriend? Unless you played a children's game out in a field or spraypainted your girlfriend, I think I'll need to reference urbandictionary on this one.

I have no idea what the final song was at any of the dances that I went to. I recall that the song that got every single girl on the floor and every guy to sit down was the Macarena.

It's funny, I went to, like, every middle school dance except for one in like 5th grade. (Middle school being, of course, the only time hte Macarena ever approached being cool.)
I guess in HS it finally hit me that "wallflower" is not a term of endearment and avoided them until my senior prom.
Spraypainted her right in the cooch. Marked his territory with his gang sign.
But racing through a city is a pretty retarded move. Congratulations on putting the general public at risk because you want to wave your wang around.
Closest I've ever been to racing in a city was in a corona vs a sentra
the guys in the other car got pulled over for going through a red light at 75 in a 70k zone. Best thing was that the light was orange when they went through.

When that song came on at my prom, me and my friends were like "fuck this" and started dancing our own dance. Soon we got the entire room dancing to the macarena without doing the macarena. I consider it a personal victory.

the closest ive ever come to racing in a city was against my buddy in his cop car
he works night shift and will watch for me on my way to work at 3:30am, if he catches me, he's usually a dick and makes me get out and do the drunk test

I only dance when drunk, which makes a great excuse for being terrible.

Yeah, it still has that good old American quality.
In mine, once you hit about 65-70 MPH the steering column would start to vibrate. Somewhat disconcerting. Also, the suspension was probably shot, which enhanced its boat-like qualities.
I was still sad to hear my parents got rid of it like 8 months ago, though.
God every single one of my fucking high school dances I went to, even my ex's prom this year (she goes to a different high school) they played goddamn Stairway to Heaven.
Every Dance. I was indifferent to it at best outside of these events, but having them play it as the capping song at every event made me develope a loathing for it. And to leave the event early saving me from having to deal with traffic.

See, by going to only one I avoided this! Sometimes it pays to be a loser!
Also, I wasn't jaded with Stairway throughout most of HS so I probably would've thought it was cool

guys on the other
three hours of awkward staring ensues
the one guy with enough balls to step out and actually talk to a girl gets made fun of
the girl i asked already had a date
however, i got with her in the end. ha ha!
This was kind of like my school's prom
except one side was the white people, and the other side the not-white people.
i dont know if he was cool with it or not
I was too awkward to ask girls to go with me
and during the two periods of time that I already had a girlfriend, neither of them had any interest in going
which is fine by me
And i thought this only happened in movies.
yeah, i had the opposite
my girlfriend for my junior and senior year was a super school active cheerleader
so we had to go

that's where i was belle of the ball
I just rented a suit 2 days beforehand, bought the ticket, and gave my friend who just turned 18 $20 towards sharing a bottle of jagermeister
this is a recipe for a good prom.

you needed 4 wheel drive to get out to it
there were plenty of sheds and a huge barn for crashing or the sexings, or you could just put an air mattress in the back of your truck
there was a huge firepit
everybody that came out was really cool, and we policed ourselves really well so that there was not douchebaggery
The event itself was okay, but the dinner beforehand was a pretty good cap to my high school career.
I still should have been more proactive about it though
one of those ice cube "today was a good day" sort of things
really?

The endcap was AC/DC's "Shook You All Night Long".
Ours was "Some popular trance artist" with "Loud, repetitive shit that makes your ears bleed."
:^:
fuck, you know what?
it was probably Garth Brook's "The Dance"
*facepalm

Needless to say, racing was not on the agenda.
When that song came on at my prom, me and my friends were like "fuck this" and started dancing our own dance. Soon we got the entire room dancing to the macarena without doing the macarena. I consider it a personal victory.
ya rly
and racing through the city was pretty stupid, i'll admit, but i'll be damned if it wasn't fun. these are the things stupid teenagers do.
