A Conversation for Talking Point: Now and Then

Black & White

Post 1

Jessie, queen of the strange - Nirvana rocks my socks!

As a kid, I saw everything as black and white. Drugs were bad. Friends were good, but you shouldn't listen to everything they say because peer pressure is bad. Smoking is bad. If you see somebody smoking, you should tell a teacher. Sharing is good, etc.

Look at me now. My favorite band is Nine Inch Nails, my preferred pastime is frightening other people, and while I don't smoke, I hang out with the stoner crowd. The kid-me would probably be afraid of the now-me. And it's only been 4 or 5 years.
