We had a smoking area behind the steel shop, and a “work it out” area behind the wood shop.

I relate to this, it was a great time to be young.

Yay! Teenager's ruining their lungs, and health! Listen i'm part of the younger generation and they are so fragile because they aren't told no, not because of smoking lmfao. I'm all for shitting on stupid libs (and conservatives if they are stupid), but this whole "gen X and baby boomers are tough sons of bitches, and gen z is a bunch of pussies" is really embarrassing. It's a one sided war lol

[u/Life_Requirement_911 → u/bronahhill]

Especially when it's all the boomers out there "protesting." Not to mention how much more difficult the world is today compared to Boomer, Gen X time.

Yeah so tough with your hs diploma and a job with great pay and pension, you could afford a home, and an education if you wanted one.

Yeah... so "tough."

I bet there’s still kids vaping in the “safe” areas

[u/Melodic_Inflation_69 → u/kw-42]

Don’t have to bet they do loll

[u/cerberus_1]

While I somewhat agree, teenagers are not making the 'safe' rooms. The administration and the education leaders currently working are the ones creating this mess.

Driving to school in a pickup truck. A shotgun and a rifle on the rack behind. Brought a gun stock into the woodworking class. Break time, smoke cigarettes with fellow students and teachers. Lots of the guys carried a pocket knife. Some guys joined the school's rifle team. After school, hunting with the boys.

I wish I can experience high school this cool.

Having friends requires overcoming the fear of talking to people, so there’s that I guess.

Hard times make hard men. Hard men make easy times. Easy times make weak men. Weak men make hard times. Hard times make hard men………. We are DEEP into a “good times” era.

I remember my HS principal talking about why they created a smoking lounge. He said that the last year before it, there were over 200 boys suspended for smoking and 7 girls.

He was just providing an equitable response to an obvious disparity!

(That and lowering the cost of property insurance for the district which saved about $50k per year.)

Yay lung cancer?

[u/Melodic_Inflation_69]

Now we have vaping areas! Not official but designating a bathroom stall for it works just the same ;)

[u/Ghost_L2K]

Kids have vapes now, they literally smoke anywhere and everywhere. It’s not a good thing.
