This Is Called a “Red Flag”
We have it on good authority that it was actually Wayne Gretzky who originally said that quote – that good authority is, of course, Michael Scott from “The Office.” There are some who think it was basketball great Michael Jordan, but this line is actually ice-cold. Nevertheless, this Vincent guy thinks – or wants us to think – that the line comes from famous presidential assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, the man responsible for cutting short John F. Kennedy’s presidential term in 1963.
A rather macabre way to end your time as a senior in high school. We hope that Vincent has a good support structure around him to make sure he can talk to people if he’s struggling with something. Maybe he should get into a sport. Like archery or something like that.
Stream of Consciousness
Not everybody knows exactly what to say when asked for a senior yearbook quote. We guess that some people, like Phillip Mills here, just write down whatever comes to mind. Mostly what came to mind was just how great he, Phillip Mills, was. Very handsome and popular and all the girls like him a lot.
It seems like the kind of thing that an actual girl would laugh about if you asked her. At the very least, he managed to fit in a “good luck” to all the seniors. What a caring, compassionate guy. Maybe he should have focused on that part of his senior quote instead of all the stuff making it look like the only girl he’s kissed is in Canada, and you definitely wouldn’t know her. She’s already in college, too.
Not Always on the Same Wavelength
Twins tend to have a good time doing the whole twin thing when they have the chance, but sometimes it doesn’t always work out perfectly. Like in this example, when a pair of unnamed twins tried to coordinate their senior yearbook quotes. Or almost did. Or something like that. What’s most likely is that they did actually coordinate their quotes, just to make this sort of joke.
Maybe they planned every word out perfectly, or maybe red just told blue to come up with a single, random, funny word that couldn’t possibly connect to anything that red was saying. Or, even more likely, blue thought he or she was completing the line “We’re so close we finish each other’s….” Which usually ends with sentences but sometimes people go funny and say sandwiches.
Just Asking for Trouble
We bet that “Bundy” isn’t too uncommon of a last name, even after the terrifying events of Ted Bundy’s reign. If your last name was Bundy during that time, we bet you got a whole lot of sideways glances and whispers. Of course, nobody else was at fault. That doesn’t mean that Blake got away without having to deal with any of that stuff, though.
Of course, Blake looks far too young to get any worried glances when his name is spoken – most kids in his high school probably weren’t aware of Ted Bundy just yet. Blake knew all about it, probably because his parents or dad had to deal with it for quite a while, and here Blake is grateful he didn’t have to deal with any of it.
Not Letting Life Get Her Down
There are some people out there in the big wide world that seem to think they always get the short end of the stick. As it turns out, life just isn’t fair for most people. Only a few can sit back at the end of their days and say that they never had to struggle.
This young woman doesn’t want to stick with the thought that she has the whole world up against her, and we want to applaud her for it. She’s just smiling at the camera, knowing that she got through high school and is on to bigger, better, and more-fun things. Maybe she’ll be able to bring that sort of positive energy in college and flip the script a little bit. Those places are ridiculous these days.
