Remember high school? No? Aw, come on, man, you remember high school. Sure, it was awkward and you didn't quite know who you were going to be, but it's where you learned some of life's most valuable lessons. Like, if you're good at a sport, woman will adore you no matter how you treat them in return. Last week on Twitter, we saw #HighSchoolMadeMeRealize trending, and decided to wade through the tweets to see all of what people took away from those four magical years.
This Ain't a Movie, Dog
You should be happy your high school wasn't like Eastside High.
Drugs (and guns) are Bad
Remind us: When is it ever OK to bring a gun and cocaine anywhere?
You Right, You Right
You're so right about your realization.
Good Girls Turn Bad
Don't be fooled: Every good girl's got a little freak in 'em. Just wait 'til college.
Nothing Lasts Forever
This is true. Well, unless you count Facebook.
Study Hard
No Sandusky.
How to Not Throw Up
This rule will save your life. And your night(s).
Too Close, Man!
So we weren't the only ones who felt like inmates? Cool.
Girls Will Date Douchebags
"I guess you knew and blew a good thing, baby."
Today's Mathematics
Yes, but hopefully you would have learned that "learnt" is not a word.
Hustle Hard
Truuuuueeee *2 Chainz Voice*
Food for Thought
Sorry, not everyone had a mom that could make them BLTs with the crust cut off. Go flip your collar down, douche.
Catch 22
The lesson here: Either be cool with having no friends or get a 'script of Adderall
The Gum Rule
You can disregard every part of this tweet except for the last sentence. Never, ever pull out a pack of gum around people. Not in high school, not in college, not at work—never. Trust us.
Girls Will Do Some Strange for Some Thangs
Wait, hold up—you had Chipotle in high school? You lucky bastard.
Your Education Will Be White-Washed
Blame the department of education for not teaching us anything about Native Americans past the time the Lenape tribe sold the island of Manhattan for "60 guilders."
High School's Full of Backstabbers.
Actually, this isn't a lesson at all. Don't do this. Please. We're serious.
Don't Go Hungry
Good one. But, like the Gum Rule, don't tell too many people about your stash.
Fuck You Squares, the Circle Gets Smaller
It's like Hov said...
Teacher's are Just People
Like any other occupation, some crazy people will slip through. It's the luck of the draw.
The Kids Aren't All Right
We feel you, but a few bad apples can't spoil the bunch.
Don't Trust These Hoes
Another lesson that can be applied to any time of your life.
Sleep Tight
There was nothing better than going to that one class where you knew you could take a good nap.
OMG HI SKOOL SUX
Translaion: High school isn't that damn serious. Everyone cool out.
Change Gon' Come
Oh shit, son, this is deep. Watch out, people change, yo.
Forever Young
Guys just like taking their time, is all. Jeez. That does explain why every hot girl in high school dated a dude 10 years older than her.
Don't Forget to Live Life
So, in short: Fuck school.
Cray Cray
Best you learn this lesson at a young age.
Don't Use Your Phone in School
Or your teacher will take it. Duh.
Girls, Girls, Girls
You think high school has a lot of girls, just wait 'til college.
