I have never done anything w/ my hair.

Just faded my sideburns, and I've dyed it a grand total of once in my life.

and washed it!
One May exactly ten years ago a friend and I allowed a stoned girlfriend to dye our hair; she forgot to put the color in and my hair was henna-colored for five months. My horrified parents, with whom I still lived, insisted on a haircut. I looked like Eminem for a while, which made sense ("The Real Slim Shady" had just blown up).

the only time my hair's been dyed was under duress at the hands of my highschool wrestling squad, who had all bleached their hair because ... who knows why. school spirit or something. predictably, they did a shitty job and my hair turned an awful coppery color.
since then i've not used anything stronger than lemon juice.

my patents were not amused by the bleach job, either, and acted as if it had been my idea.

I didn't have a bad time; my crew and I acquired a fair amount of respect by the time we reached senior year due to involvement in theatre and the literary magazine. But I wasn't out, and when I got to college I had no idea why contemporaries considered high school so awesome.
― cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 May 2010 21:42 (fourteen years ago) link
I absolutely loved high school, and I was no Heather.
Because it wasn't junior high school.

It was still possible to have a great time in H.S. without being out, too, btw.
That said, I wish I had been a little more out then, because I would've gotten a lot more ass.
― will live out his days in gloomy batchelorhood (Eric H.), Monday, 10 May 2010 21:45 (fourteen years ago) link
I went to boys Catholic school. Ass was everywhere: pimply, swollen, lanky, you name it.

Swollen ass?

Swollen ass = a consequence of puberty.

In Catholic boys schools, I guess.

there's something about the innocence & mild rebellion & rush of initial independence of high school that can't be replicated

Oh I get that part, but it pales beside what succeeded it, and the sexual discoveries were forced and not, er, gay.
― cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:41 (fourteen years ago) link
i'm okay with having only masturbated all thru high school tbh -- sex in college has only been marginally better anyhow \(o_O)/

Rev, were you nineteen when we met? You were totally cool!
― cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:54 (fourteen years ago) link
20, I think? I was a v different person than I had been 2-3 years earlier at that point.
― jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:56 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah, definitely 20, cause I was just a couple months shy of my 21st when I got kicked out of the EMP bar.
I was v. much an angry, awkward, frustrated, nerdy teenager.
― jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:58 (fourteen years ago) link
hs was a "best of times, worst of times" situation for me:
on the surface I was rocking: class president, had a diff. girlfriend every year, lotsa friends, in a band, doing a zine, part of the punk scene, plenty of fun shit going on
inside / in secret: closeted, doing lots of risky promiscuous stuff in public with strangers, lying to everyone, painful unrequited love for str8 friends and bandmates, clingy n depressive, homicidal/suicidal, a mess.
I'm glad I survived.
