I got the nickname sheep playing trombone in the hs marching band because I didn’t know where I was supposed to march and I just followed people. People called me it in town pickup ultimate because there was crossover with marching band. Saw a guy in the grocery store like 8 years later and he called me it and I was astonished.
…At some point when I meet new people! - evangelical teen (no longer!)
- youth organizer 🫡
- from greater bahhhston
- show choir kid 🎤💃🏻 but actually did not watch glee until after HS (see: first bullet)
- this actually doesn’t always come up but I love remembering that I did the morning announcements at my high school lol! go hawks!
I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
Come hang with some PI.FYI folks at Franklin Park in Crown Heights in Brooklyn on 7/19 @ 6:30. riotgrrrl and slowdazzle will be there too! Link is the Partiful invited!
