Hello you beautiful soul!! Hope you are far away and safe from this upcoming storm wherever you may reside! Same goes for everyone in this community!! Stay safe family. 💖

Hiya 🙂  Well, I’m in California so no storms here. haha In fact, we only wish we got rain – granted, not the shitfest that’s going on down south. Thank you for the well-wishes to all who need it during the hurricane storm season. I’m sending positive vibes to y’all too!   ✨💖✨

I know it’s definitely too fresh and a “sensitive topic” in the country right now but do you think eventually they may do some type of “ghost hunting” episode like ghost hunters or ghost adventures at the school? I’m sure it would be sooooo far in the future if they did.

Definitely not going to happen. It’s an active, thriving, public school with students milling about it daily.  I suspect far in the future it’ll still be a high school and if not, turned into something else.

I know some of you think of it morbidly as some fascinating haunted prison (lol) but it’s just not at all a creepy, abandoned haunt location. Zak Bagans would have too much respect to request to investigate it for a show.  The school already has plenty of unwanted attention. Can you imagine how bad it would be with curious looky-loos after a televised paranormal investigation ?? YIKES.

Honestly, people, do think this through a bit…   

What do you think of that story of the girl claiming to be Devon (although she never says that right out) who claimed Dylan’s ghostly BMW saved her and Zack from getting in that accident?

It was in fact posted by Devon under a handle she frequently uses on the internet and her interests listed are basically her lifestyle today. I have no doubt that her incidences of connecting in from time-to-time with Dylan, her former best friend, are legit. 

She created her account to write on that forum 3 years and one day after Columbine:

Do you think if Dylan grew up would be able to work up the courage to tell his parents about his depression during his teenage years?

Probably not. He’d be inclined to keep it to himself as a personal struggle that he shouldered and weathered through on his own and somehow managed to come out on the other side as an adult. Dylan’s foible was priding himself on self-reliance and ‘keeping calm and carrying on’. He wouldn’t want to upset or bother his parents unnecessarily.  He might venture to risk sharing/confessing it with a significant other though in intimate moments between them.  That was why he partially wanted his own love: to have someone to confide in and to share his innermost feelings with including his pain.  He wanted the same sort of healing and happiness he witnessed and envied in that transformation that occurred for Zack when he found Devon.  A girlfriend is someone you would share your depression with and leave mom and dad out of it so they wouldn’t have to worry unnecessarily.

I know at least one friend (maybe Devon) said that Dylan was waiting for girls to approach him. Was he looking for girl to to flirt, ask him out point blank, or perhaps even give him a note much like the one he wrote?

Yes, he was waiting for a girl to give off clear signals she was interested. He was too shy to risk making the first move and show his interest partially because he was socially unable to initiate and engage conversations and he’d get flustered and blush – and, what if fell flat and he fucked it up or she brushed him off?  He couldn’t take the risk so he was waiting for girls to initiate first because then it would indicate that she might already be interested in the first place.

Sue said Dylan didn’t have a journal, he just wrote on scraps of paper here and there. But I’m confused because of that thing you just posted. “Nobody but Dylan can open this book.Some supernatural forces block entry.” Was that his planner then?

“These writings are always referred to as “journals,” but really these were scattered pages, compiled by the investigators after the fact. Most of them were taken from Dylan’s school notebooks, although some of the bits and pieces of paper he wrote on were old advertising flyers or other scraps, which he then tucked into various binders and books. The stack of photocopied pages was about half an inch thick. Some entries were a sentence long, while
others went on for pages.” – Sue Klebold “A Mother’s Reckoning”

When Dylan first started writing his thoughts onto paper, he started off with this visual concept for “A Virtual Book” (not a literal book or journal) which consisted of his thoughts written on nonconsecutive pages in notebooks and single scrap sheets of paper.

“I am a fucking dog.” – EDH

I guess some people have no sense of humor about the dog posts.
Ahem, such a surprise.   

Those were simply ridiculous asks that warranted ridiculous answers, and I just had to dish back for a bit of fun because the entertainment value of those two dudes as dogs was simply too gold to pass up – especially once the visions started popping into my head ala Eric saying emphatically  “I am a fucking dog”  And, well, frankly, it does get tiring answering straight laced Qs. 

Anyway, people need to stay in their lane and do their own things that make them happy on their own blogs. Why the need to post huffy judgments about other peoples’ blogs in an obvy attempt at stirring drama?  If you don’t care for something then ignore it.  It’s really that simple. 

I was kind of amazed that over 100 of you got a kick out of both of those posts. I mean yeah, the posts are silly-stupid so I’m scratching my head over a number of likes that I saw this morning.  

Glad most of you are big enough people, with a sense maturity and humor about you, to enjoy a bit of levity now and again in light of those who continue to perpetuate the negative vibe in this community. 

So, if you enjoyed going along for those off-the-beaten-path ask replies then just know that I dig you and if you’re a coolio follower of mine, I.<3 you.

Were Eric and Dylan the type of friends to help each other out if one of them is getting beat up?

Yes, of course, they’d helped each other out but they’d be limited in what they could physically do if either was being physically beaten up and especially at school. The jocks could gang up on them.  At one point, Dylan wanted to settle a score with the freshman jocks and he, Eric and a few others were supposed to meet up for a confrontation but the jocks never showed up. Dylan’s parents were not to thrilled with the fact that he’d decided to resort to a confrontation to settle the problem even though they’d previously advised him not to do so. I’m sure if that confrontation had happened and it became a physical brawl that Dylan and Eric would’ve wanted to spar with them however they could. Dylan would’ve relished the opportunity of a physical fight (if it came down to that) and to take all his bat shit crazy rage out on his offenders which could’ve been possible off school property and away from teachers, etc.. I get the feeling at school, the boys were shoved and there were shouting match confrontations and threats on both sides but they never got literally beat up by anyone.  It would amount to Eric egging them on and Chris and Dylan standing by him as backing. E & D were fixing for a fight though and I think in some ways, physical fighting is what they needed and that it should’ve happened so they could feel as though they were taking action and doing something about the problem. It would’ve been cathartic to be able to have the chance to truly fight back and at least try to kick some ass and settle a score the old fashioned way.
