[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any impressions of 2021?  My son, god willing, will be a member of that class next year as an entering 9th grader.[/quote]

The 2021 class seems to be made up of a nice group of kids.  The parents as a whole are also not of the insufferable variety that we have encountered with another son's class.[/quote]

What class is that? How is 2024?[/quote]

Nice try.  Nah, I'm not gonna swirl up trouble by naming names.  But here's a handy guide to assess insufferableness.

If junior is not a junior, but a III or IV
If DC's last name includes the mother's maiden name, and said name is not of Spanish but of English origins
If the family is old school Republican, but now claims they are Trump supporters +4
If the kid graduated Beauvoir or St Pats  +1
If the kid is involved in lacrosse or crew  +1
If the dad was involved in lacrosse or crew +1
If the dad coaches club lacrosse +1
If the dad was an alum pre-2000  +1
If the dad was an alum pre-1990   +2
If the family belongs to Chevy       +2
If the family belongs to Congressional +1
[b]If the mom is stay at home  +1
If the dad is stay at home/"retired"  +2[/b]
If the family "summers" somewhere for the entire summer  +1
If the mom drives a Suburban  +1
If the dad drives an Italian car  +1
If the dad drives said Italian car with driving gloves +1
If the family is 3rd or more generation in DC proper  +1
If the family lives within a 1/2 mile from the Cathedral +1
Single plastic surgery procedure for mom  +1
More than one plastic surgery procedure for mom +1
Plastic surgery procedure for dad  +3

Check the boxes and do the math.  Anyone over 10 is likely insufferable.  All it takes is a half dozen of these types to ruin a class...

My goodness, you have a lot of free time to type this list.  You must be one of the bolded statements above![/quote]
