Totally irrelvant TBer info share thread

I went to high school in the late nineties and the bottoms of everyone's jeans were frayed with strands of fabric hanging off. In class, kids would often light another kids frayed strands on fire. Someone did it to me once so I punched him in the arm and his head knocked into the wall. We both got detention.


Before the desegregation period, one of my buddies got a match thrown on his Afro from the bathroom where everyone smoked. He looked like a candle walking down the hall.

We used to call him Crow because he was so black he looked purple. That would never fly these days.

It's crazy how things change. My high school, at the time, was the most culturally diverse (I think) in the world. We had everyone except native Americans.
 
I think I just blew a job interview today. It lasted over two hours because the guy was real busy with actual work. Meanwhile, I'm on barbituates and muscle relaxers for my recent back injury, so I was a bit loopy and probably said things I shouldn't have.
Also, I need to clip my toenails.

So...just being nosey...Do you think that your unruly toenails hurt your chances of being hired?
Is this a position as a lifeguard?
I'm struggling to come up with a flock of jobs that require goin' bare footin'...
