Adult life has not been kind to some of the Chads from my hometown

Date: August 5th, 2026 5:58 AM Author: razzmatazz brindle tank state Just heard last night that one of the guys that I grew up with had died. In adolescence, he was one of the cool kids and was a great high school athlete. But he always had a rebellious streak. Always mocking authority, always seemed to have a chip on his shoulder. Unsurprisingly, he got into drugs. Eventually dropped out of college. I hadn't seen him in years. I thought he had grown up and turned his life around, but I guess I was wrong.
Anyway, I started thinking. There was a core group of about 10 cool jocks at my high school. Of these, 3 have died. That 30% death rate is about five times higher than it should be for our age. |

Date: August 5th, 2026 9:16 PM Author: Mind-boggling Native Of course. You need so many dimensions and long-term tracking in this model, like maybe Jake played college ball, got a good job, and married a hottie. But she hit a wall at 32 and he is too depressed about his knee injury to divorce and remarry younger so now he is drinking himself to death. You gotta do the work to prove all this out because with the right filter they can all look ok any given Sunday. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5889712&forum_id=2#50048307) |

Date: August 5th, 2026 10:06 AM Author: talented garrison There’s a huge and obvious IQ gap and extremely exaggerated bimodal distribution of outcomes among Chads who went to my high school. If you separate the population that was proudly stupid—all non-honors classes, typically had the most basic bitch preferences in music/movies/TV, either didn’t go to college or went to shit schools that existed to steal their parents money—the rates of death, obesity, bankruptcy, living with their parents past 30 and incarceration are probably roughly equivalent to what the median outcome is for inner city blacks in violent shithole neighborhoods with failing schools. But all the Chads that tried at all in school and worked to get into at least somewhat decent colleges are married with kids, own nice homes and have good jobs.

Date: August 5th, 2026 8:43 PM Author: razzmatazz brindle tank state This guy was from a UMC family and still found a way to screw up.
Interestingly, his older brother was a fairly troubled kid too, though not as bad. Was obsessed with this idea of being a good old boy redneck. Went to our state's cow college but dropped out. Finally finished his engineering degree and has had a career in construction. Still dresses/talks/acts like an inbred hick. There was some strange stuff going on in that family. |

Date: August 6th, 2026 1:14 AM Author: talented garrison Yes, exactly my high school was also UMC. Dropping out of cow college/third tier directional state u/obscene ripoff private u (that had zero prospects of post grad employment anyway) and moving back in with parents around age 20 was the median outcome for the stupid class of Chads at my high school. TBF all of them made it clear when they told everyone where they were going after senior year that their sole priority in college was maximizing binge drinking and they all executed that plan to perfection.

He lives pretty close to me now, which is a bit of a surprise because I live a few hundred miles away from our hometown.
But FML, he's stylin on me. He's got a baller house.
He's not balling completely out of control because he's a wagie but still. |
