RE: Trapper Keeper :: 50 Word Short Story

in #contest6 years ago (edited)

Oh, this is wonderful, and very touching, @negativer. And I can most definitely relate. I was one of those kids who had to go to school to figure out what to wear to school, but this was a no-win process, since you could come back the very next day wearing the erstwhile cool thing, and the cool kids had already moved on. Sadly, my parents somehow thought we could escape the social misfit stigma we were inevitably stamped with by attending Catholic school where we had to wear uniforms. But see, the cool kids wore the uniforms the cool way. And then there was all the rest of us! For the record, I still think bell bottoms are cool. I’m just waiting for their come back.

Sort:  

I was too late to the cool party...or far too early. Whatever I was at the time was never cool at the right time. I always thought it was fine...until some kid told me otherwise.

That's the upside of getting old; you stop caring about what's cool and just go for what's comfortable :)

Thanks for reading, @jayna!

Yes! Among the many perks of getting old, that one is the very best. 😀
