I've got all these people from high school who keep adding me as a friend on Facebook. I suspect it's morbid curiosity. They all expected me to have burned down something important by now. There are maybe three or four of them I'd actually cross the street to talk to.

I just saw this. I am confused by their use of the word "friends

Yeeeeeah, I'm not sure I would have called them his "friends." It wasn't like it was a Jackass prank gone awry.

I empathize with the Facebook thing--I keep being added by people where we had this big dramatic never-speaking-again thing. It's weird.

I don't understand the article. That's horrible.

It was the bit about a group of his "friends" setting him on fire. HELLO.

Well, I've set both a friend and a relative on fire.

But it was always accidental.

Apparently we went to high school with someone who's on the Today Show now. Her name did not ring a bell, and when I looked at her picture in the yearbook, I realized that her hair would have prevented me from speaking to her then.
