Default Prom

So apparently some high schools have a combined Junior/Senior prom. When I was in school there was a Junior prom and also a separate Senior Prom. Others tell me that where they went to school it was combined where juniors and seniors would all attend the same prom.

Is there some prize for making a post before the poll is posted? It only took like 30 seconds.

My school wasn't big enough to have separate proms and still expect all of us nerds to not stand out too bad.

This is why I am never becoming the married wanker type. I thought this would be something fun like, did you get laid at prom? Or how many drinks did your prom date have before taking off her dress? This is all mature and stuff, not fun after a bottle of wine. .....oh well, TDA is a mature fellow with daughters and stuff

He is figuring that if they are seniors, that half of them would be considered of age so his chances are only 50-50 of ending up in jail. If there are juniors included too, well, then his chance is 75% of ending up in jail.

These are important studies.

Back in the early 80's only the National Honor Society and student government dorks went to the prom. It wasn't considered cool.

Now, as is my understanding, most students go. It creates unbearable anxiety for fat or awkward girls.
