I got into a tiny flame war with someone from high school on the Facebook page of someone else from high school, and then all these other people from high school (and elementary school, even) started chiming in and now I'm getting together with a woman who I've known since 4th grade but haven't seen in 26 years and all I know is that she—AND I QUOTE—has some residual guilt from childhood she'd like to clear up.
I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

@yeahno this promises to be entirely unrewarding for you. Enjoy?

@lawremipsum My childhood friend Jacinta (whose parents are Chinese immigrants) and I have been comparing notes about who from our school days has issued apologies to us... and why it's often more insulting than anything.
It's particularly weird for me because, well, I don't have many distinct memories before age 20. So when people bring this shit up, I'm essentially experiencing them for the first time.
YAY.

@yeahno @lawremipsum "ah geez my friend's getting married that weekend actually, instead of buying me a drink make a donation in my name to [charity], take it easy"

@yeahno yup, this time you're serving as the vessel for their decades of guilt. Fun treat to get used twice!
