With them, I'm a hip, mysterious, faulously sucessful go-getter with astonishing taste!! Cathy: It's 9:30 at night. Irving: What kind of losers schedule aparty for after the sun goes down??

He sure looks ridiculous. Trying too hard never works.

The best parties are at night, Irving! Or don’t you remember that from your HS days? At $240 for a pair of sunglasses, the only statement you’re making at a night party is that you’re the loser!I’ll be glad that tomorrow is the last of this series. Not sure if they’ll actually show them going to the reunion or not. I’m guessing not.Good morning, Cathy clan! Enjoy your Friday!

Yes, the best parties are at night so you don’t have to see those who drank too much at the party barfing in the bushes near by. ; )

This series is just one eyeroll after another. Happy Friday all.

Irving should go with temporary blindness – it would explain much. He wouldn’t even have to recognize people!

“I wear my sunglasses at night…” NOT.People aren’t going to recognize you, Irving. They’re just going to whisper to each other “Who’s that weirdo over there?” So after 10 years, you will have gone from dweeb to weirdo. Congratulations!Happy Friday to my buddies in the Cathy Clan!

It would be funny if some of his classmates had the same panic reaction and did stupid makeovers like his!

It is easy to avoid all of Irvings ‘problems’ going to this reunion. Do what I do. “Dear, what am I wearing tonight”. My wife is the one with the fashion sense so I defer to her judgment all the time. Much simpler that way. (and I don’t end up having to go alone).
Catruled – I agree with you on this one. I recall the first big HS reunion I went to – a couple of people I knew rented Caddy’s to drive to the school. Did not impress me, or anyone else, at all – I knew what they were doing in life and an expensive vehicle like that was way out of their price range. Was good for a laugh anyway.

A perfect example of why I’ll never attend another high school reunion . . . nothing but a bunch of idiots who never grew up, and are still trying to impress people just as shallow as themselves with everything they [supposedly] “have”. As for the rest of us, we know they’re a bunch of phony-baloney liars and we make just as much fun of them now as we did back in high school — except now, we think they’re even MORE pathetic than we did back then!!!!!

@ncalifgirl58I was gonna say … I wonder if [eye-rolls] are available in week-long installments. This week has been full of ‘em.
@EveryoneDoes Irving not realize what a … [fill in the insult] … he looks like? Wait—I guess that’s the whole point of this week.
HI, MOM. Happy Friday, Clan.
