I had to laugh a little bit at the premise of this article, because sometimes it seems like high school was an entirely different world. What didn’t seem normal in high school, right?

Well, some things it turns out were more universally accepted as ho-hum than others, and these 16 people have some pretty hilarious submissions that will make you remember just how different life was at 15.

16. The worst.

Like emerging from hell and going straight for a pizza.

They really had us all in the auditorium watching Schindler's List at 8 am in high school then were like enjoy the rest of the day

15. Showering might have been weirder.

If you believe 80s movies, anyway.

now that i think about it high schools really had us SWEATING BALLS in gym class and sent us straight to english or math no shower no nothing

14. It was a zest for life.

Hard to replicate if you just don’t have it.

I’m sick of coffee I want whatever theater kids consumed that made them act like that at 8am

13. I slept so much in high school.

So this must have changed.

12. Milk is good for you!

That’s what they told us, anyway.

The fact that they really had us drinking milk with chicken sandwiches and shit in high school is baffling.

11. Bored, starving.

Potato, potahto.

10. People really don’t like milk as adults.

I think I know why now.

High school really had us eating pizza with milk

9. Absolutely brutal.

Whose idea was that anyway?

8. Lunch was ridiculously early.

That explains why we’re eating our lunches at work for second breakfast.

7. The Spanish kids were so basic.

But obviously the smartest ones in the bunch.

why did kids who picked French as their language in high school make it their entire personality

— Sarah 🌩 (@16scrawford) March 28, 2021

6. I mean, life, right?

It can just smack you right upside the head.

why did high school boys moan excessively during class like pls help me what was that

— myra (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡ (@mmyrizzzle) July 27, 2021

5. We’re all a little afraid of the dark.

No shame in that game.

Why did people scream in high schools when the lights would get turned off in the classroom😭

— China Anderson (@China_Anderson) April 12, 2021

4. They didn’t even teach us cool dancing.

Anyone need their square dancing in college?

3. OK was this really normal, though?

I vote not really.

why did kids have rolling backpacks in high school? like why are they dragging around a suitcase

— maya 玛雅 (@mbaskinn) June 5, 2021

2. It’s way too early.

You probably didn’t have time to stop at Starbucks, either.

High school really had us debating the death penalty at 7:30 am

— Your friend Maz (@MazGrace1) March 7, 2021

1. They’re on their second knee replacement.

After winning a softball championship in college.

I know some people loved high school, but personally, I wouldn’t go back if you paid me.
