That's one of the bad things about being where you grew up, so I get it all the time nod I totally ignore people now, even when I do recognize them. I used to try to be friendly but it's so pointless - I didn't talk to the fuckers then, there's no need to chit chat now. If they come to me w/ that shit I keep it short & move on, who needs it arrow

I had a guy approach me one time while I was out with my sister,taking my nephews trick or treating. he said that he wanted to apologize for what an asshole he was in school,and that he had been slowly apologizing to people that he had treated badly in school. It was nice,but I did'nt have a clue who he was,did'nt remember him at all. I guess he wasn't as important as he thought he was. lol

I also have run into people that I went to school with while shopping,and they are the cashiers. They usually are the ones that were in the "in crowd",and use to treat me like crap,so when they smile,and say "Do you remember me!" even if I do,I usually just look to them puzzled,and say "no,sorry" lol

I used to get approached by underclassmen (moreso than my classmates) from my high school when I still lived in New Orleans, since the folks I graduated with and was cool with I pretty much remembered and ran into with some regularity...what would trip me out was that they always would tell me about how popular I was and how they were afraid to approach me in school, yada, yada, yada....

...of course, finding out you were popular in high school 10 years after you left is not very useful information.....disbelief

What gets me about those that tend to turn out to be the cashiers, they have a LOT of kids or have experimented with so many drugs that they are hardly recognizable.

nod I don't even attend reunions,I don't see the point. The friends that I did have,have moved away,the others that would be there,I would have no interest in seeing again.

I still talk to the ones I give a shit about, so I don't think I'd ever be bored enough to attend a reunion.

So I'm chillin' at the Star Bucks here in Hoover Alabama. Hoover is a suburb not far from where Natalie Holloway used to live.

Anyways, I was JUST approached by a guy named Jeff something-or-other, who apparently was a friend of mine in High School.


He came up and said, "Daniel?? Daniel?" then slowly pronounced, in surgical manner, my entire name.

"yes?" I said eek, confuse hmm ky


We got to talking, and apparently we were friends in high school who used to crack each other up and have a great time.


I. have. no. clue. who. this. guy. is.


Apparently there's a high school Reunion next year, and I'm supposed to attend it rolleyes, so I guess I'll go.




But have you ever had someone from high school approach you (or college or anything) and you have no clue who they are? If it was just an acquaintance or classmate I'd understand. But Jeff apparently was a bonafide friend of mine confuse


Lawd, I spent to much of my 20s drinking and partying.

falloff if you don't mind me asking, is this a 20 year reunion? My ten year reunion will be coming up in 2010, I still remember some of my running mates, but there are some that I run into now and then who I don't want to see...and thats when I start hiding in the meat aisle until they leave the store evillol But yes, there are some who approach me and call me by name, and the whole time while they are running at the mouth, while their face looks a little familiar, I'm trying my damnest to not give away that I can't even remember their damn name! So no its not just you. Its human nature.
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

nod PREACH!!! And the thing is, you don't recognize them, but they ALWAYS recognize you. and when they ask you what have you been up to in the past few years, and you tell about college, your career, and the homes you have owned or the cities you have lived in, their response never fails "Oh thats great, I wish I would have gone on to school, but I had to be hardheaded...now i'm divorced with baby mama/daddy drama and I keep getting into arguements with my manager who I hate....oh and please, please, wait until you are ready to have kids, they are handful, though I love mine to death, it would have been so much better if I had waited....oh and date as long as you can before you get married, these women/men out here ain't shit. Well it was nice talking with you". confused

When I was working at Countrywide this guy named Keith came up to me that knew me from college and insisted that I knew him. neutral He kept rattling off facts but I could tell he was trynta be vague cuz I wasn't alone. After, I feigned recognition I went back to my desk wracking my brain trynta remember this fool. So, I call my best friend Fred, whom the guy mentioned also knowing from school, and told him the dude's name and described him. Fred laughed his ass off then said, "Fool, you dated Keith for almost a year!"

lol It really is. I hadn't seen him or thought about him in 8 years so I didn't expect to run into him in the credit union at my job. shrug

And I remember every guy I've screwed. . . I mean, may be not their names exactly. . . but generally speaking, yeah. lol

One day you'll be walking along minding your own business when you hear someone say in a surgical manner "Cheeky? Sweet Cheeky Monkey?"
Then, and only then will you discover why you were put on this Earth.
