The unofficial guide to prom '09 (NVGR)
garison | 11:03 PM on 05.25.2009 41 comments




Yup. It's that time of year again, in just a few short weeks, teens all over the nation will be preparing for the biggest night of the school year. PROM!

If you want to be the prettiest girl in school, follow these 4 simple steps, and you really can't go wrong.

1. Get a hot dress

Whatever you do, do not skimp out on the dress. The dress is one one of the first things that people notice about you, so none of that Sears or mall mish mash, you have to go all out. If you have to, get your mom to pull out the good ol' Visa, and call out up Louis Vuiton. They'll get you hooked up, promise.

2. Practice safe sex

The last thing you need on your prom night is to wake up with little crabs crawling all over your underpants. 'Nuff said.

3. Get the hottest date in school

it doesn't matter how good you look, if you don't have an attractive escort, your whole rep gets killed. I really don't care what you have to do to get that special hottie, work up your courage and ask the captain of the football team, or maybe the rugged farmer boy from down the road, just make sure that he is hot as hell. Also, it's very important that your outfits match. You might have to go with him to the tux place if you have too.

4. DON'T overdo it in the tanning salon

Remember, only spend 5-10 minutes in the tanning bed at a time, you really don't want to turn into one of those Orangeskins. Also skin cancer tends to be undesirable.


And there you go, a simple guide to help you get ready for the biggest night of the school year. With less than a month left before the big night, it's time to get busy. This could be the biggest night of your life!

Yeah, we just had prom last Friday, and it was pretty 'meh'.

This weekend, and the rest of the weekends this and next month are going to be awesome, though. Open housessss! Went to one friday, 2 Saturday, and 3 Sunday. It was awesome.

You're invited to mine. I'll have you picked up in my private teleportation jet device.

I'm with Monodi and Kraid. Prom just isn't worth all the expense, especially when part-time scratch is better spent on hobbies. I went to Homecoming way back in my youngin' days so I didn't see the point of another pointless venture. :P

It was much more satisfying to play Baldur's Gate again... GO FOR THE EYES, BOO! :D

Pfft! Some people just aren't as fly as Funktastic! I get a sense of a lot of shyness and fear of going to Prom/Grad from a lot of members here! =P

Are all the proms on around the same time?? Why dont they space them over the whole year??

And what does an 'open house' mean??

You crazy Americans and your crazy culture I see in movies but don't understand

Is prom short for something?? Or is that a whole word by itself??

My girlfriend was too young to go to prom with me this year. All the proms in my area also happened like two weeks or more ago.

Damnit, I was really hoping this was going to be some funny video game spin on prom, but alas it was not. That begs the question, what the fuck is this doing here?

lol. I skipped my prom to stay at home and play import Dreamcast shmups. I recommend others do the same.

Garison, I demand that you rewrite this and include video games in some way or another.

You forget to mention not to get drunk before prom actually starts unless you like throwing money down a puked-filled drain. Being buzzed is fine though.

Just have to say that you'll look at your classmates differently when you see them vomiting on each other, falling down and passing out in puddles of their own puke, wondering how the he'll they got so much in their hair.. Ah great memories! What am I talking about, they still do it till this day haha.

Man, prom was over five years ago for me. It was a waste, and it cost $20 to even get in! We HAD to buy the picture book we'd receive later, and I wasn't even in any of the shots, as I expected.

Truly a waste of time. I had no date, I had no fun, and it poured down outside. They had the bright idea of having one-way valet parking (they park the car but you take your keys off this rack and find your car yourself) so the pouring rain was well-executed.

Yeah, I'm sad I went. Which is why I'm building a time machine so I can tell my past self to not go and thus change the course of history forever.

Am I the only person who calls it THE prom? I dunno, just saying "Go to prom" bothers me for some reason.

Blacksunempire, I think it's short for promenade. I could be wrong, since nobody has used that word since the 1800s.

Prom was underwhelming, but still somewhat enjoyable. I feel sorry for the girls that spend like 600 dollars just for 4 hours of whatever. I'd go out and buy another launch PS3 before going that far.
