Ahhhh School Daze. I somehow missed every single dance given in High School.
Yes, I was pretty much a juvenile delinquent in school. Well, I never 'officially' got into much trouble, other than in-school suspension .. but I wasn't one for formalities; hell, I still hate getting dressed up in button up shirts, neck ties, slacks, suits, etc .. and I am usually dressed like a skate rat even now. Shit, I still can't tie a tie if it would save my life! Back then, it was Ozzy, Metallica, Sex Pistols and other 'rock' t-shirts and ripped jeans.
And since I only dated one person from my town, and that was someone who just moved there, and then left at the end of the year .. I really didn't keep track of social events. I can remember one year, a bunch of kids were out on a particular day, and when I asked a teacher why, they said, "The semi-formal was last night, so they just stayed home to get some rest." I was like (a) we have semi-formals here? and (b) I come to school, even when I'm hungover, so those bastards should have to come into school the next day!
I think it's been well noted here that I skipped the prom to go drinking under a bridge with friends.
So, anyway .. this seems like a good time to say that the caption is probably the alternative universe were Dee exists in high school at the same era and place when Damien went to school .. punishing some jerks that pissed me off somehow and I went all Dee-Mentia on them. And if you'd like, you can imagine you went there too!
Reading it again now (I wrote this a few weeks ago) I think everything is pretty clear, though now I'm wondering if I would have allowed this blatant cheating to go unpunished. Maybe I'd have made the punishment to not only dance with a boy, but to make out with them to up the ante. I mean, I can't let anyone get the upper hand on me, right?
Oh, especially red is cheating - they are holding hands with the left, right hand on the partner - like a man. They are likely leading. Plus the chunky watch.... Sounds like Steve likes it.. or he likes Peter...
ReplyDeleteI would let you lead, Dee. But it would be your call, of course.
