I was born there and lived there for nine years.

I'm from Teaneck in Bergen County - this is QUITE weird, because I could never find anyone who listened to good music in that area...

I think I read that one of the Fugazi guys was from Teaneck too.

ugh. teaneck. i went there once.


not sure what i'm "ugh"ing about, i don't even remember it. in fact, maybe it was tenafly. i always used to get those two confused.

No, the 'ugh' is justified - that is one shit town. It's good for its proximity to NYC there though. I ended up going to high school in New York City and was able to spend a lot of time there, all the while not needing to deal with overly expensive city living.
NYC is no Chicago though... I can't say I'm sorry I moved away from the coasts...

Where did you go to HS?

When I was in tenth grade I was invited by a girl to one of those dances where the girl does the inviting. It was really uncomfortable; due to an ill-fitting tux, I ended up with my jeans on underneath, fucking awkward.

After that little soiree I shined the prom and all other school functions.

didn't go to my school prom. gf said she knew i'd hate it so she didn't ask, instead asked me to go to anime convention with her (i know, i know...). went to another school's prom with a different gf later. boring as hell, no story to tell. basically just remember her fussing over really expensive braiding that she "had to get" because everyone else got it, and then getting pissed that i didn't compliment her when it was done. it was at the top of a skyscraper and i should have savored the view but i must have been so bored that i hardly remember it.

I went to an all-boys Catholic school but you were supposed to bring a gal to the prom which always confused me.

Anyway, I stayed at home and watched a Fulci movie because I was that kind of cool-assed contrary kid.

you got a wet willie?

I went to mine. It was fun but kind of boring and forgettable. Much like high school.

My date was a Junior Olympics ski champion. She was also so much shorter than me that she is sitting on my knee in our pictures.
