Get the The Almost Invisible Man mug.Related Words
living within the palo alto bubble is pleasant, because palo alto has a lot of genuinely good people. i remember whenever caltrain stopped at palo alto, the train operator would announce: "palo alto, friendly village". no other train stop would get a comment like this.
palo alto is materialistic. we really enjoy spending money, eating out and living large. there is a peaceful, tolerant, beautiful vibe in palo alto with a tinge of ignorance.
palo alto is not the ideal town for young people. nearly everyone who grows up here ends up leaving to seek out and discover the real world. they seek excitement and danger because they have lived their lives sheltered for so long with everything served on a silver platter.
you will usually see K-12 kids and middle-aged people walking the streets.
there exists a pestilent substance-abusing underground which many of the high schoolers who spend their parents' money on weed, alcohol, cocaine and ecstasy inhabit.
also, some kids growing up here hate this town.
gunn is extremely overrated. the students are more concerned with getting into a highly prestigious college, as if this guarantees high income. its quite a delusion that pervades gunn. academic achievement is valued over actual life-learning. the GPA matters more than your actual skills! that is why many people ive talked to say they absolutely hate gunn, and i've had a damaging experience there as well.

Get the palo alto mug.Individuals with declining visual and hearing acuity, slowing of cognitive processing, reduced physical capacity and an attitude of entitlement unmatched by any other group. The almost-deads typically prefer warmer climates where they wreak havoc on motorways, consume massive health-care resources and generally burden society until forever silenced by the inevitable icy-cold hand of death.
Yeah, it took 2 hrs to drive 2 fuckin' miles this morning. Seems that a car full of almost-deads did the 'wrong-way thing' entering the highway and crashed head-on into a motor home...shut down BOTH North AND South bound traffic so they could be extracted and life-flighted to the nearest cemetery.
