Matt, I only read half the article and I will have to finish it later. I’m at work right now and I nearly lost it when I got to the assembly part.

Just lookin’ down at my desk calendar, trying to laugh really really hard through my nose and making those scrunched up faces. You know how it is…

Alright, I’m going to try and finish it now. Thanks for the funnyness!

I just have to say, I wore an ‘Orangemen’ sweatshirt I got from an overstock clothes store because I thought the mascot kicked ass too. So you’re not alone there. Lets just say I didn’t have a great Junior High experience as well.

Man, from TMNT pies to depressing Hat day memories…

X-E really is something.

Yes, you did. Damn. Now I’ll never be sure if I actually thought of the term on my own, or if I had read what you wrote, didn’t recall it, and subconsciously broke out what you had said later.

Regardless, good job.

We had hat day in highschool. Only a few people actually wore wacky hats and everyone else pretty much wore baseball hats. No prize was given or anything, it was just a gag the school did for spirit days. Which were the days the football team were to play, but no amount of spirit could help us, we always lost anyway. We had hat day, pj day, school color day… etc.

This is late too but Im going to share my brief story. I was a freshman in high school and they had dress up for Halloween day. Which NO ONE participated in, something I didnt think of ahead of time. I wore some gothy looking clothes and did my makeup very pale and vampire=like. I was basically a vampire. People started to laugh at me cos i was real pale and wearing black and blood red lipstick and it was soooo embarrassing that I just claimed I didnt know that it was Halloween. That that was just how I dressed that day.
Which made them talk and gossip even more.
Add in some people rumoring around that I was a satanist after my getup on Halloween and add in the factor that I love heavy metal music (and was very into Megadeth, Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Dio, etc at the time) and bingo, I pretty much was labeled as a devil lover then on out. Which caused all sorts of problematic issues throughout my high school “career”. Such as being moved out of art class by the principal and into child development in some effort to “soften” me up. Despite the fact I loved art and they wouldnt let me take both because they were afraid that art would further “corrupt” me.
Stupid hicks in a small town.

I know this is really late but I was out having serious fun all weekend so I bailed on the internet…”Oh, and for the record, I CANNOT believe no one has referred to the headgear in question as The Taj Ma-hat.” – Magic Toe

I feel the need to point out that I did in fact call it that in my post somewhere near the middle of the posts. Hats off to me for being creative! Taj Mahat!
