Thursday, March 18, 1999: Different

[NonsenseWords]

So DCS has some deep-seated issues with his elementary school, apparently. I mean... seriously?

Yeah, I get what the joke is, but this little bit of social commentary does not at all jibe with my elementary school experience and it's really rubbing me the wrong way.

Also being a weirdo isn't a wonderful thing. I agree with the roo (in principle).

[Bocaj Claw]

My cynicism was really in high gear here, wasn't it? I suppose you've guessed that I had some experiences with school authority figures blaming me for failure to conform.

This is the first time I ever showed Ms. Sorkowitz. Her design would evolve a lot. And, it would be some time before her title (is it Miss, Mrs., or Ms.?) would get standardized.

Thing is, DCS is remembering this from a child's point of view, which is not necessarily the right one.

[Maggot Brain]

"Different" would be a good title for some really depressing pseudo-documentary.
