> [@Siam\_Sam](#): > > It’s the 17th anniversary of my father’s death. > [@stillownedbysetters](#): > > It’s the 17th anniversary of the Columbine High School shootings, too. ☹ Columbine made my father’s death surreal. I watched it all over the Bangkok airport TVs while waiting for my flight, which were all tuned to CNN. Then a long-ass journey to Los Angeles, where I stayed overnight before continuing on to Texas, and it was _still_ going on (I think the shooting had all stopped and the perps were dead, but the police still hadn’t entered the school, because they weren’t sure what was what yet.) > [@Mithrander](#): > > Happy 4/20 everyone, just remember tomorrow is April 21st, national surprise drug test day! Could that be why the Board went down? Cecil and the Mods all failing their drug test? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/today-is-4-20-you-know-what-that-means-right/752725.md?page=1)
