We had a boring enough mascot, but my highschool had separate black and white homecoming kings & queens... In 1998.

Pretty sure that was illegal at the time...

They're usually done as private parties with invites required and off campus. That way you can't sue the school.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
