I have never gone to one. My 40th will be in 2021. I was an absolute nobody in high school so I doubt three people would recognize me. But I think I will go for the laughs.

If its what you like, it's not trashy. If you don't like it, that doesn't make it trashy. Personally, I am not into the reunion thing, but whatever people want to do, it's on them.

my 50th is coming up
Had my 50th last year. Hadn’t been to one since we had our 10th. Except for a few on FB, I hadn’t seen most of my classmates since then.

Take-away for me - none of us are 18 anymore. Not even 28. It was a bunch of mostly old looking fat people, with a lot of memories, who were probably also shocked. I probably wouldn’t have recognized 90% of them on the streets.

Mine was terrible. Everyone was either drunk as frick, stoned as frick, or coked up as frick. This is coming from a catholic school reunion..

Offering cocaine to lonely women who are already struggling with self-esteem issues is certainly trashy.

But it's that awesome kind of trashy that memories are made of.

Went to my wife’s 10 year reunion and my 10 year reunion. Not much changed. People acted a lot like high school and looked pretty much the same. Lots of drinking and folks were friendly. 20 years , different story. Women’s bodies go to crap. Men not much better! Still worth going to. Recommend no loud music cause people want to talk.

enjoyed my 30th reunion. reconnected with old friends I hadn't seen in years like we never left. nothing trashy about that.



odd how you can not see someone for 20+ years and pick up right where you left off.

No issues with what people do, but to be absolutely fricking ripped at a nice function, at 38ish, is kinda trashy to me. No one danced. The band was a waste. Hell, I walked in with a couple of drinks in me and it was like I had walked into a room with nice dressed people on a 3 day binder. Back in the day I smoked pot and snorted up atleast an 8th of Columbia. I have no problem with those who do now that stuff now. I was just looking forward to hanging out with everyone since I don't do social media. Kinda sucked.
