One of these things is not like the other (bottom left). Brad must wonder why “Steve” is so cold to him when he sees him on the golf course. Probably thinks it has something to do with this Jeff character he keeps hearing about.

Hm…Not that awkward, you might be thinking. Slightly ignorant, yes. Double ‘lol’ usage, sure. But really not that bad. So why does this stand out? Because it was written in Joe’s yearbook (of “I hate you and you smell” fame.) And poor Joe has no idea who the hell Kevin is.

Shawnee Mission West High School, Overland Park, KS, 1995
This entry came from a yearbook with a decent amount of blank space left on the signature pages. You could tell the guy in question, Eric, hadn’t made too much of an impression, but most people kept it civil. “Have a great summer” and the like. But Fatemah went ahead and said what the rest of them had to have been thinking.
