Here in St. Louis, everybody always asks you where you went to high school. Why? People use it as a quick gauge to try to find out how you grew up. Rich kids went to fancy schools, poor kids went to substandard schools, etc.
But with this question comes a whole lot of assumptions. People will assume certain things about you just because of where you went to high school and many of those things are unfair or even mean — but some of them are hilarious.
Here’s what people think about you when you tell them where you went to school in St. Louis.
Bayless High School
You grew up in the city, but not really.

You live in St. Charles County and couldn’t get into any of the schools your parents wanted for you — but the drugs are plentiful and your school is co-ed, so you’re still winning.
