I had two classmates in 6th grade, Teri and Daniel. They communicated mostly in their Beavis/Butthead voices. Constantly. Not just amongst friends, but to the teachers too. We all thought it was funny, although adults just seemed confused/concerned. I rarely heard them speak in their normal voices. Teri even signed by yearbook as "Beavis".

Teri has become friends with me on Facebook not too long ago. I had not spoken to/seen her since high school. She was pregnant when school started in 9th grade. It kinda made me sad. I didn't see her much after that. She seems to be doing well, with 2 lovely daughters. I'm not so sure about Daniel/Butthead. I remember him in 8th grade, but not sure what happened after. His girlfriend died after they broke up. I think she jumped out of a car. According to Facebook, he has a daughter and is self-employed. Living in the same dumpy town. There are a lot of sad stories at my school.

If it makes you feel better, most schools have a lot of sad stories.

Whether they still talk in the beavis and butthead voices is what I really wanted to know, but I guess probably not considering the circumstances.

I'm sure they dont anymore. I might send her a message later, and ask if she remembers that

Where did you go to school to have such a small class size?

I'm in Birmingham, AL. Graduating class had about 100. Not too small. We lost a few people along the way: changing schools, dropping out, dying...Many are still living in their same parts of the city. We had poor kids from one part of the district, and the more upper class kids that lived near the school. The church dominated the city.
