What. The. Fuck.

[meganew]

H's 10 year high school reunion is coming up and I've been pushing for us to go since some friends will be there, we'll have built in sitters, etc. Well, we just got the info for it and apparently there's no open bar because they didn't want to make all the pregnant ladies sad.

Are you fucking kidding me? The food better be awesome.

[janiejones]

That's BS.

[WOT?*]

Your title says it all.

So the pregnant ladies don't get to be sad but the non-pregnant ladies and all the guys do?

Minority rules. Dumbasses.

What the ...what?

That is stupid.

Dude, it's high school. Everyone knows the knocked up girls are sluts who deserve misery.

Give us us BOOOOOOOOZE!

[sunflower22]

I'm guessing the planners are a bunch of pregnant ladies! That sucks!!

[leeann]

And everyone just agreed to this? F that noise.

[vicky]

[iamgrace]

That's pretty much the stupidest thing ever.

[luckyval]

So, then, no food either because it will make the people who gained a lot of weight after high school sad

WTH???

[Deleted]

Well that's dumb.

[Chirp]

My 10 year reunion was 2010.

It was $150 per couple (no single tickets). There were discount tickets available ($100/couple) if you bought them before a certain day. The card they sent out was post-marked 2 days after the discount ticket cut-off date.

In addition to that, you had to pay for your own meal and booze on top of the admission fee.

We did not go. I checked the FB page and only 10 couples attended. My graduating class was 250 people.

/eyeroll because I have no emoticons right now.

My 10 year high school reunion was a blast... because there was booze. People underestimate the importance of a social lubricant.

I'm not actually sure I'd attend anymore. Or I'd bring a flask.

[gozf]

My 10th reunion was terrible. Overpriced tickets, BAD food, cash bar. The DJ only played radio hits from the year in which I graduated. It was 1996, so there was a lot of Coolio.

I went with my BFF from high school, and none of the people we wanted to see were there. It was the people we never wanted to see again. I do not have plans to attend any subsequent ones.

My 20-year is in a few weeks. There will be no open bar, although I think we get two drink tickets? H will be using all four of ours, obviously. It wasn't cheap, either. I think it was $150 per couple and that's just for heavy apps and two drinks.

Fucking bogus, man. But it's the 20-year, so I'm still going.

As someone who has been pregnant twice and sat through stuff like this I would be VERY pissed as a non-pregnant. Don't punish me because of the occupied utes! I put in my time and now let me enjoy myself.

That is so freaking dumb.

[fuckyourcouch]

that's ridiculous. flask it up for sure.

i have no interest in my 10 year reunion. the only people i like i've kept in contact with, and there were over 1000 people in my graduating class. bleh.

[meganew]

Yeah, I don't understand how I'm suppose to enjoy myself at a function like this without a metric ton of booze. But it's a date night out so we're still going.

Flasks ftw!

[Deleted]

That's the stupidest shit I've ever heard.

Flask away!!!

Obviously it was planned by a pregnant chick.

exactly. how dumb.

I didn't even consider going to my 10 year reunion. Because I live in Utah and I knew there'd be no alcohol unless I brought it or bought it. And I'd be one of maybe five or ten people drinking and there would be awkward silences and glances every time I took a sip.

I hated high school anyway and was still in touch with the only people I wanted to be in touch with.

[blueshirt2003]

That is really strange. And that sucks!

[ECB]

Well, "no open bar" doesn't mean there won't be a bar. You just have to pay for it!

Which I HOPE this is what it means....

And this isn't abou tthem "being sad", it's about them bitching about "I don't want to have to pay for other people to drink".

[sonrisa]

No bar or no open bar? I'd never expect drinks to be covered at a reunion. It isn't a wedding so I can pull out my wallet. (our reunions are at a bar, no cover or tickets, appetizers are free but you pay for drinks).

[mamasaurus]

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't even get invited to mine because the alumni association is run by lazy fucks who didn't even try to find people who aren't on FB. I really only want to go so I can show off baby pictures to new people, but still. Annoying. If you google my maiden name and my old email address, my new email address comes up on the first page. Not hard!
