So, Disney though issue is, Disney adults. I feel like. Well, no, I don’t know if they’re disney adults but they’re always married at like 19. There's definitely a pipeline of Disney adult and high school sweetheart. There’s also a pipeline of disney adult weirdos. That's what I'm saying. Idk if that correlates. That is the Venn diagram. I’m gonna need some statistics on this. How many who are high sweethears also adults? Yes. I’m not. Well, no, we're we're still. We're trying to get me started on. This is brand new information. You just dropped to me, and I don't know how to take it. Honestly. Well that’s alright we’re high schoool sweethearts you’ll figure it out. You know, also where the problem so you should be anti high school sweetheart. Because where the problem. But I love you. Oh, I love you too. That’s the nicest part about it. Yeah. I hate to break the news, that we're high school sweethearts, everyone. One of favorite teachers highschool was married to his high school sweetheart. Oh, yeah. Well, you can't just drop people's names like that. I’ll bleep it. Okay. Never had that teacher. I don't know anything about them, so. Okay. He literally passed everybody he did not care, he taught geography. Same with my favorite teacher. Who I won't drop their name because I'm respectful. And he didn't teach you anything, and you didn't mine. Why is yours dead? Oh, some people have the 85. Hate to break it to you. Might be still kickin. Yeah, we met in high school, though. Science class. Marine biology. No. You're an asshole, though, Why?because you left me in that class. We had a class together. We met, we started dating, and then you dropped the class because you just. You didn't like the class. Thought it was boring. So you. My love for you was not strong enough to keep you in this class. No, I got the bag and left. I got what I needed and I moved on. Fine. Fine. Damn. Bank robber. Next topic. Homecoming. Did I ever go? I went to yours. Did I go to yours? I didn't go to any. Nooo you did. I made you go to all the dances my senior year. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Then I've been to yours. You don’t remember, you didn’t go to homecoming your freshman year? No. Sophomore year. No. Junior year. Senior Year. No. You only went my senior year. Yes. Pervert. Well, there's borderline pedo stuff. Yeah. It doesn't look good. It's a bad look. Mkay well why didn’t you go? Did I go to homecoming? Yes I wore a black dress I wasn’t happy with. Okay. There you go. Dress better for your homecoming, kids. Well, have a mom that will actually get you the dress you want. Have a better mom. Pick a better mom. Kids. Stand up for yourself, kids. I don't know what the moral of your story is. I'm just trying to. I'm just trying to pick it out fast. But. No. What about homecoming? I asked you to. Your homecoming. No, i asked you. Not true. Are you sure. Yep. Spray painted on thing. Did a photoshoot. That’s cute. You don’t even remember wasn’t cute enough. Sorry we’ve also painted a lot of different stuff for eachother over the years. Now, why was homecominga topic? Is it good enough to be a topic? You think? Really? It was huge in mine! I think it's. It’s the one dance you can go to without a date. You can go with all your friends. You can go to prom without a date. No. It's fine. It's acceptable. It’s less acceptable. Okay. Go on. Everyone gets asked to prom. Not everyone. Darling. Okay, everyone gets asked to prom. Just go. Okay. You got asked. I'm going. Okay. All right. Well, what a nice, relatable story that was for everybody. Okay. Yeah, sure. Go for it. Homecoming was boring. I thought it was not that exciting. I thought it was fun. It's. Yeah. I mean, it's fun. So you hate dancing? No, I love to dance I’m a dancing machine. Then why was it boring? it's there's not. I don't know, it's just not the same as proms. A big boom boom. Yeah, it's a big song and dance. But you can’t do that until your junior or senior year. Exactly. I didn't go to any dances until I went to prom with you. That was my first high school dance. That’s cute. So all the other ones are worthless. They're all fluff. Next topic. The cool kids. Cool kids. Who are the cool kids. I think there's two types of cool kid. Okay, lay‘em out. There's rich, cool kid, and there's poor cool kid. It's two different dynamics of cool kid, yet they have respect for each other. They'll cross paths, but they have their own cults. I feel. What do you think of this? I’m trying to think of who is the kid. I would say like a skater type. But, a rich kid could be a skater. Yeah, but most likely not. Yeah probably not I guess. The more rebellious, cool kid. I feel like, you know what I was cause i feel like back in the day like 90’s n stuff Like football players were always the cool kids. But I feel like that didn’t really resonate when we were in high school. Not as much, but it still definitely did your tripping out crazy because a successful football player was still pulling weight. What are you talking about? Because there's. I'm saying. I'm telling you, there's a rebellion. I really it's rich or poor, but I think it's also just, like star athlete, good grades, good teeth, good hygiene, smart, all that stuff. And then full rebel. Full scumbag still pulls. So which is rich and which is poor? What do you think? I’m just saying I don’t think it has to go that way. It doesn't have to be rich or poor. Okay, I'm tell I'm realigning it to prep and soc or whatever. Yeah. Which one were you part of? I was probably preppier but i liked the more rebel guys. Yeah. That was more my type. Okay. Sorry. You were prep. Yeah I mean I was a dancer. Yeah. Once you're in the athletic program it's pretty preppy. It doesn't really you know. It doesn’t get worse. No. This is preppy as it gets. I did have good grades and did okay. Yeah. So you're prep. You’re. What are you? Social. I feel like that’s also prep.... Next topic. Your topic. Um Senior Superlatives. Those things everyone would vote senior to.. Succeed. Yeah. Did you get one? No. Did you? No. Did you want one? Yeah. Which one did you want? Sexiest. Most likely to pull weight. You know, anything I just wanted I just wanted to be, proof I existed, you know? What about you? I wanted good eyes. Good eyes. Did you even try to get it. I just thought you got it. I didn’t think you had to Campaign? No. Yeah, I had lawn signs out for me. What was the lawn sign for again? sexiest. Sexiest child? No one. No one cared. Yeah. No one. No one put it on the lawn either. Except one guy. It was weird. That’s creepy. Any. Okay. So you wanted best eyes. Yeah. Did not get that. I wonder who did. Idk. I didn't pay attention. I didn’t even get a yearbook. That’s crazy. Parents, parents wouldn’t buy me a yearbook. no one surprised about that. Yeah. What was the best high school food? Did you bring lunch or by lunch? Bring. Oh, you brought lunch? Okay. What about. Okay, My mom made lunch everyday. Okay. Our high school had a snack time. Did you get any food then? No. Never bought food from high school. Not really. Really? I would hit the vending machine every now and then. Okay. What was your vending machine go to? Mmm Pop Tarts. What flavor? Pop-Tart. I don’t remember what they always had I feel like it was usually strawberry. There's. They had strawberry and brown sugar and that was basically it, a you'd go strawberry. Okay. There you go. And I think when I would have to stay really late for dance I would get a ramen every now and then. Whoa. We had dollar top ramens. I wonder if they're still dollar. I feel like no. I hope so. I hope so. I also would get an apple every now and red apples. What would you get? Oh, I get a bagel and cream cheese. Oh. They did have good bagels and cream cheese. Really? Good. With the little tub. And you*dunk* It was real nice. And they're like steamed bagels in the bag. And then they also had the chocolate chip cookies are really good and steamed in a bag. And you being such a cookie fiend, I'm surprised you didn't get your hands on those. All right, next topic. I can always go. Music in high school. Important or not. To me not I'm not a big music guy, which is an offensive thing to say. In general, it's almost worse than saying you don't like puppies. But I like puppies, so I got that going for me. Music? Not that much. My speed. Not your entire personality. not any part of my personality. I really, just as to this day, I'm just not listening to that much music. What about you? I was big into music in high school. Well, give us your top hits. Gotye, that one Doechii reused for Anxiety. And then Taylor Swift was big. You were Swifty. I was not but I remember her being really popular. Okay. And then Justin Bieber was huge. He was huge. And then our school pranked us because we're in Southern California telling us Justin Bieber was going to do one year, one semester at our school. he had just moved from Canada to California. Or something like that. Yeah. And they had convinced us that he was going to come to our school. And our dumb asses all believed it. Yep. He did not come. Great joke though. Really funny. Solid joke from the, staff. It was I have. We all were telling each other. He's coming to TO made no sense. Why would he not go to a private school or anything like that? Why would he go to school? He's making millions. Yeah. That was a great. It was a great staff prank. How do we get to that music? Next topic. High school counselors. Oh mine was fine but I didn’t really talk to her. Hated mine. We had the same one. Yeah, mine was a fucking bitch. Because, you know, I think I think they probably get a lot of back talk from a lot of kids, and they get really over their job and they don't get paid that much, and that's fine. I remember going there so many times, you only get called in there if you're not doing great. Not you're not getting called in if the and they're going, oh good job by the way. So I got called in because I wasn't doing too great because I really was lazy in high school. And I remember getting called in and she's like, oh, you're not going to go to college. I'm like, it's freshman year. That's a crazy looking back. I'm like, that's crazy. In freshman year, like second first semester, maybe it was just like, look, kid, you're probably not going to go to college. And then things kept going, blah, blah blah. I remember me requesting time with her like junior year and being like, hey, like, I gotta figure this out. And her just being like, I don't think you're going to do it, so I'm not going to bother. And I'm just being like, you're a fucking. And looking back, I'm like, that's crazy. No that’s actually so disrespectful and if you’re a highschool couselor and you your like that a peace of should children. Easy Emma. Calm down. No, I fully believe that. If you want to work with kids, support kids. Support their dreams. Why wouldn’t you support their dreams. No. No. I think I mean, I think she was I didn't go to college. She was. She nailed it. Let's be honest. She nailed it. You did go you didn’t finish. She nailed it one way or another. But I did graduate, and she said I wouldn't do that either. So she wasn't fully right. I do want to go back just to see her and be like you stupid idiot. I hate you. She’s probably dead too. Yeah. You're acting like we're a thousand years old. But they're still alive. They not that old. Oh my gosh. Next topic. Fashion. My fashion was, questionable. Why? I just, I mean, I didn't really get new clothes ever so I was making it work the best I could. You did what you could. Yeah. I went shopping all the time with my mom. I remember sagging skinny jeans and then doing, like, a boot cut on them to. What do you mean? You'd cut the legs so they’d be bootcut? You’d cut little. It was a great look bringing them back. True Religion was popular when we were in highschool. Oh I wanted true religion so bad back then. They made my pussy wet. Yeah I wanted those so bad. True religion was the coolest and skinny jeans were everything. True Religions, I still have never had a pair and I think it would heal me a little if I bought one. I'd be like, I've. I've made it. Would that be a good 30th birthday gift for you? Don't you dare get me True Religions. I’m going to get you the trashiest pair of true religions I can find. Joke's on you. I'll probably wear‘em embarrass you. Yeah. What was your go to fashion. I was just like a skater rat. Okay. Yeah. Super skinny jeans. Yeah. Probably converse if I was picking a shoe. Yeah I was a vans. It was a there's two different types of people. converse and vans I was vans. It's amazing this relationship works. Yea we’re tetering on the edge here still. But you've switched in your, age. Now your vans chick. How's that feel? Betrayed. Do you betray yourself? Younger self? Sometime i feel like i should get a pair of converse. Yeah. You wouldn't wear them. I have a tab open in my phone right now actually. Oh my god. you runnin it back. No. Next Topic. What class would you add to a high school curriculum? I'll do my answer. Okay. I would add a frontal lobe development class, and I would have them kind of, realize that they exist in this world. And how to how to exist and know that, like, your actions affect people. An empathy class? Kind of. Yeah. I think before your frontal lobe develops, I feel like you should try and kickstart in high school. You know, get put a little gasoline on the fire before you start hittin sparks with it. Realize your actions affect everyone around you. Yeah. And or or even just yourself, like, hey. Yeah, you can graduate if you get good grades. I think we have finance classes. Teach kids how to pay their bills, and make a and survive in shitty fucked up we live in bills you. No, actually, I think they should, enroll you into more debt when you're in high school. I think there should be a debt class. Yes, I think they should double down on that. They should get an auto loan on you right away. Second year in a high school. Senior year. Let's get an auto loan. I think. Let's tie you up in a few phone contracts. Credit card debt. I think debt class would be the most beneficial. That's tell you, hey, billionaires, they don't spend their own money. They spend other people's money. So I'm going to pitch this to some kid. I say we go down to the high school, start signing these kids up for some debt. Make a difference in this world. Let's make a change. Let's. We're definitely good. You can change your life real fast. Next topic. Your turn. Oh. Oh. Driver's license. I was to say driving! Okay. Oh. I loved getting my drivers license it was the best. That must be nice. you, yeah you got yours eventually. I had my license before you did. Yeah, cause they wouldn't pay for my classes, so I couldn't get my permit. So, you know. trauma dump session for real. I'm just telling you how I lived. And then you got a car. Oh, cool kind of car did you get? I had a VW Bug. Oh, my God, that's so cool. What color was it? It was beige on beige it was$10,000. Wow. Expensive car. Yeah. For high schooler Good for you. Was it a hard top? It was a convertible. Oh, it was a convertible. Oh my God. So your very first car was a convertible. That's really cool. Oh, my God, that's really cute. It was adorable I loved that car. Oh, really. You loved it? Oh, that's so sweet. I'm so glad. And I would get little flowers and put them in the little vw flower holder. too. Well, I mean, now isn't that just gonna melt your heart. I was little princess. And it had the best seat warmers. park get a matters. Yeah. I remember meeting you. And I would be sitting there with my little seat warmers on and my hot coffee. I was so happy. Wow. I shared a Ford Explorer with my mom, and it was her, like, second car she ever had in her life. And every door was broken. And you had to drive it with both feet. And this is a lie. I didn't get to drive it every day. But the days that she did go. I'm not doing anything today. You can take the car. You had to drive with both feet, because if the car, if you weren't always pushing the gas down, it would completely die out and you'd have to restart it. And it's like a few tries to start and the paint obviously not there. No seat warmers, unfortunately. Not a convertible, but it got me to school. To school some days. Most days. Sometimes. So yeah, drive it. But yeah, it was a stress getting your driver's license, and that was like the biggest deal. It was a huge deal. I loved having a drivers license it was great. I can't believe you just tried to tell me I can't click my own pen on my own podcast. Why? It's like they're in the room with us. Remember when someone would tap the back of your seat in class? Is that what that is? Oh, you're so sensitive. that would drive me nuts. One time, my friend, kicked my chair and turned me fully 90 degrees. And then I got detention. Your highschool experience sounds awful why is this the topic? What do you mean? This is relatable. Most people's high school experience is awful. Mine was good neutral. Oh, good for you. This sounds traumatizing. I'm just telling you what happened in my high school. You said someone touched your chair. Well, my friend kicked me sideways, and then I got to detention. And then I got yelled at detention too. I was drawing because I didn't have any homework that I wanted to do because I was a bad student. And then the teacher found out I was drawing and she was like, well, this doesn't count that you've done detention. I'm like, what do you mean I'm still here? She goes, no you have to do homework. I'm like, I don't think that's part of the deal. Like, I'm pretty sure I just had to be here. And she's like, you're so lucky I have a meeting to get to, or else I wouldn't count this. I'd make you sit another hour here with me. I'm like, you're trying to fucking touch me, pedophile. Yeah, that's super weird. But she was. I've never seen that lady before or anything. that’s even weirder. Yeah, I don't know who she was. Some pedophile that just snuck in I think. Next up is, the social media of our high school experience was pretty exciting because Instagram and Snapchat both came out while we were in high school. Yeah that was fun. Yeah. What do you think? Do you think they're still banging around on the apps like we were? What do you mean banging around on the apps like we were? What do you mean? What do I mean? We we're playing on those apps all the time. You think it's like, crazier now or way less because we are, like, so into it? Because it is so new. Yeah we were all super into it, i bet they’re all into it too. I bet it’s different because it’s so ingrained in society now. Well, they're trained on it. They’re meaner to eachother on it, I bet. Like I said I think they're nicer because they'll, they can find each other better. No I think if you post something cringe its being sent around. And i think other stuff gets leaked more often. I think they're less cringe though because they have more idea of what their presence means online. Maybe. Idk. I wish I took it more seriously back then. Oh I mean yeah. Me too. Yeah I mean that that's a game changer. That would’ve been cool. We wouldn't be here right now. No. Next Topic. SATs what’d you get. I don’t remember I did really bad on the SATs actually. I did really good on the practice one and then bombed the real one. You got too nervous. Yeah I panicked and didn’t do I what though. I think blocked it out I did bad. Wow. You just go I couldn't I can't, I can't hold on to this info. Sorry. This hurts my I'm sorry I got to tell myself I'm smarter than what just happened. I got to lie to myself way more than this is allowing me to. All right, all right. Yeah. Next Topic. I think that's going to call it, though, unless you have a topic. uh, Graduation. How was your graduation? um my graduation, was really fun. Okay, tell me more. What did you, So cause we’re from Southern California. Okay, I don’t know if they do this still. pretty they don’t. do. No I think it got banned. They used to bus all the kids from our highschool and all the local high schools to Disney Land. And they would do a senior grad night at Disney And it was really really fun. That's cool. And you were there until like midnight or 1 am or something. Oh, my God, that sound so fun. It was super fun. Wow. If only you went. Oh that's weird. I was at the same high school. I didn't get to do that at all, you went camping. I was told. Yeah, I went on a family camping trip instead because my parents wouldn't pay for my whole high schools. My parents wouldn't pay for it. I didn't take the SATs because my parents wouldn't pay for. I didn't get my driver's payment. My parents couldn't pay for it. And I didn't do senior prom night or whatever. Your highschool experience sounds awful. You’re gonna cry? There’s kids with cancer I'm fine. Anyways senior grad night was fun. I’d like to know what other people in other areas do for their grad nights cause i’m going to my cousins graduation in a few kinda with my mom. I feel it's I like how you're telling them about it. Yeah. They need to know what I’m up to. Like, I, I just think it's almost like you're bypassing that. I'm sitting right next to you. I am. What do other kids, well you didn’t do anything, what do other kids do on their grad nights? Do you go to a go... do? I think they all have, like, parks that they go to n stuff like that. I don’t think that’s a universal thing. SO i would like know Well, what people are doing for their senior graduation. I mean, I'm new to the fact that there's ammusement parks all across the country. I never thought that was a thing. Like, there's a lot of Six Flags. It's not just that one. Yeah, Oh i didn’t know that. yeah, it's a chain. Ew. I don’t like six flags.. Well, yeah, there’s also knott's berry farm. but that’s also ew. I think that's a chain as well. Universal is also a chain and so is Disneyland. That's what Universal and Disney are better. Those are the only acceptable ones. The skinheads go everywhere else the first place. The only place I've ever seen a Nazi tattoo. OOOh. Six flags. Yikes. Really? Go to Six Flags. Pass. All right. Anyways I think it’s graduation time so congrats if graduating. Oh, yeah. Oh, it is kind of graduation time. Yeah, congrats to all the graduating people who don't listen to this, but maybe one day will. Maybe. Well, from my high school sweetheart to yours. That's another episode of Demon Babie podcast.
