You sit through the tedious amount of time watching hundreds of punk kids walking to their seats, then listen to some random 18 year old give other 18 year olds life advice, then you listen to some random politician talk about something nobody cares about, and then you sit through the names being called of hundreds of punk kids that you don't care about until you get to the one name you know, and then you sit some more until you go home.
I mean, for fucks sake. I didn't even mention the rednecks blasting airhorns and shouting 'that's my boy!'

And the obligatory, "please save your applause for the end," and then the directly proportional "screams/yells" from family to white trashiness ratio when the kid is announced. "WOOOOO BRANDI, WOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

Probably time to just mail diplomas through the usps. Even-day delivery, of course

My favorite is when the kids get up and talk about high school being the best times of their life. Good grief.

For some it probably will be :frown:

For some, I am sure this is true. The homecoming king at my school was a multisport hero who ended up getting busted for selling meth out of his factory job locker within 2 years of graduating high school.
In contrast, I knew when I graduated college that the college years would be hard to beat because it was a utopian dream come true...great friends, unbridled freedom, little accountability, hot girls, intellectual expansion, play station...

College graduations are much worse.

Take it to the snob thread.

More meaningful tho.
-
Graduating from high school isn't a big deal. NOT graduating from high school is a big deal. Graduations are literally worse than weddings.
-
well weddings are totally sweet so a graduation would have to be pretty badass
-
college grads are WAY worse. but they both really suck.
-
During college graduations I like to entertain myself by reading the titles of all the MS and PhD theses.
-
They're kinda boring but I've been to like 3 ever including my own so its not like a huge chunk of my life. Think of all the precious time wasted on commercials.

hooding ceremonies are the worst of the worst. it's a contest to see who can be the most self important pompous unemployable blowhard for an hour and a half.

Every HS Graduation I've attended since "Rent" came out played "Seasons of Love".
Every. Single. One.

Guess what, kids: Passing 8th grade doesn't get you crap in my book. You haven't graduated from jack crap yet. It is not something to be celebrated or treated like some big accomplishment

The same should be said for pre-school and kindergarten. GTFOOH with those boring ass, meaningless graduations.
