Honest question, and I think I know the answer: do a lot of people still dwell on HS? It rarely even crosses my mind. It seems like another world that really wasn't all that great (and I was fairly popular). Now, college is a different story. I can relate to it and remember it well (and fondly), and I was probably less popular in college (if one can be "popular" in the college setting) than in HS.
I have the feeling someone on facebook is going to remind me of how much of a dick I was to him/her in HS, and I'm not going to remember who that person was/is.
For the record, I was a dick.

A friend recently noted that within minutes of signing up for facebook, she was immediately barraged with messages from a chick she went to grammar school with. My friend loathed this chick and everyone else who went to that school. Chick, apparently thinking that time heals wounds, banters on about everyone else who went to the school and gives updates. An excerpt from my friend's post on the subject:

And the best part? The BEST part? The kid who was the biggest asshole in the group and made my life hell? DIED.
DIED.
I am such a horrible person, but my first thought was actually, "Take THAT Joey!" Yes, he died young, very sad, very tragic.
But he was an asshole and made me cry almost every day for three years. So, seriously. Joey? I win.
