Life Did you go to your senior prom?

**Rain Man** · 01-13-2011, 01:45 PM

Just wondering. Yes, no, stag, date, whatever. Tell me about your senior prom experience.

I didn't go. I didn't know how to dance, didn't know how to learn how to dance, didn't have a girlfriend, didn't have the money for a tux and corsage, didn't have any social skills, didn't drink, and lived in a small town where an 18 year-old couldn't secretly buy condoms. Other than that, I would've gone.

Poll forthcoming.

**bevischief** · 01-13-2011, 01:47 PM

No, I worked that night.

MIAdragon · 01-13-2011, 01:49 PM

Wha? You didn't go?

**The Franchise** · 01-13-2011, 01:49 PM

No. I got drunk and stoned instead.

Frazod · 01-13-2011, 01:49 PM

I broke up with the girls I was dating the week before both my junior and senior years. Ended up getting drunk and playing D&D with the nerds.

**Bugeater** · 01-13-2011, 01:50 PM

**** no, I didn't want to go to school during school, why the hell would I want to go back to the school after school.

Don't go to highschool, go to school high.

Chiefspants · 01-13-2011, 01:50 PM

Ehh, I have not decided yet, should I?

BucEyedPea · 01-13-2011, 01:51 PM

Of course! The Junior Prom too which was much more fun. The Senior—>Meh!

Jenson71 · 01-13-2011, 01:52 PM

Yes, I went. It was similar to other dance experiences in high school, which were all pretty fun. Mostly girls fast dance, or you slow dance. But mostly you go from table to table talking to people. At my school, there was a huge after-prom party that everyone was required to go to, and you won prizes, bowled and saw people get hypnotized, which is always great entertainment.

And then at 4am, you went to Perkins, and then you were encouraged to go to Mass the next morning, but each time I uh, accidently slept through that.

yep we had that same after-prom party...I had mono my junior year so I felt like a train wreck the entire damn time...

seriously...I went to school on Friday (required to be at school if you wanted to go to the prom) and felt like death...went to the prom (a weekend event) and wanted to die...

and then spent my 17th birthday in the hospital a few days later because no one knew what the **** was wrong with me and finally they figured out I had mono...

worst sickness I've ever had but got to miss school for a month so lots of Jerry Springer

I can't remember that far back.

Hootie · 01-13-2011, 01:53 PM

I went to my junior and senior prom because my girlfriend made me both years...I think prom and homecoming really lost their stigma when kids started having sex at younger ages and parents became more liberal about it...

so now no one uses prom as an excuse to have sex...people just have sex on a Monday after school for the hell of it...

so why do guys want to go to prom when they can just get a BJ or some anal out in the parking lot during lunch break?
