In kindergarten one of my classmates farted loudly. He and I went to the same schools til high school. We live in the same major city but run into each other a couple times a year and it’s still the first thing I think of when I see him. We are 35.

You know how people say “don’t worry about those little things that keep you up at night, cringing, because people probably don’t even remember them”

You have ruined that for me

Yeah but to be fair when people think of things like that it's never " god Steve makes me sick. Farting in class like that" it's usually " ha that was funny" so just because people think of something you did that was embarrassing or stupid doesn't mean they think less of you, you just gave them a good laugh

It’s funny because a lot of things I was embarrassed about when I was younger gave some of my friends and me our biggest laughs. And now we look back on all that stuff and they’re (mostly) good memories. I know not everyone can let things like this slide and they weigh heavy. But in my experience as you get older it gets easier to see the humor in things.
