I was quite active in Band/Chorus in HS and had my day in the sun for sure. My HS had about 1200 students, 100 of them were in the band so about 10%. Some of those were on the football team.
I had a friend who was also in the band, I say friend in a strictly guarded sense. From the first week of freshman year to graduation day, I always felt that I was his friend because no one else wanted the job. And it was a job let me tell you. In the 4 years I cannot remember him talking about or hanging around with anyone else besides me and my other friends. I had a car senior year and drove to school every single day and picked him up, I say this to confirm that I knew him well. Four years as a bandmate I cannot recall ever hearing him play anything on his instrument except a "C" tuning note. I always thought he was faking it.
About a year ago I friended him on facebook. He is today a full fledged member of the lefty political know-it-all class, posts 10 or more anti-trump messages a day. He posts on fb in personal terms as if he was Mr. Popularity in high school and has multiple graduate degrees in awesome when in reality he went trade school.
The interesting thing is we have mutual fb friends, some were obnoxious football players in HS and they, the football players and other very popular kids are now as conservative as I am and call him out on his revisionist BS all the time. So much fun!
