Like a lot of people my age, I joined Facebook to reconnect with high school friends in anticipation of my 20th high school reunion. As part of the lead up to the reunion, classmates were asked to post high school pictures to a shared photo album. Revisiting the pictures was a LOT of fun (like a personalized version of VH1's "I Love the 80's" - particularly when you hit a streak of photos from an event you had pretty much forgotten). It's also been fascinating to read people's comments on photos, and I'm noticing a reliable pattern of gender differences in self-deprecating humor. The women routinely comment on their hair (big!), their jeans (acid washed), their sweaters (oversized), and their weight (fewer pounds than now). The men have posted tongue-in-cheek comments along the lines of, "It shall remain one of the enduring mysteries of human history how none of you ladies managed to land me. What a handsome [man] I am!" and "Man, I look good in pink!" and "Think I'm hot at 37? That's me at 17. You can look but you can't touch!"
