Pros of Regular Prom

Less likely to get in trouble for breaking school rules

Less likely to find yourself trapped in an endless nightmarescape

Less likely to die of starvation and exposure

The theme is kind of cool

It's at a freaking gothic mansion

Pros of Anti-Prom

You could become the thrall of a fantastic mystical creature that, even if it's actually hideous, will make you believe it's beautiful.

It's more dangerous so technically more cool.

Outdoor dances are more romantic, I think.

When you die, you're pretty much guaranteed to be famous assuming they don't just cover all this up.

When you account for the possibility of drowning or contracting ebola, starvation and exposure aren't that bad in comparison.

The Masque of Red Death definitely took place in a mansion and not a forest.

I hope this helps everyone's decision-making process.

i don't think it's about prom, though. i think it's about the grotto.

But I'm talking about calling us BABIES. We can't get mad at the OLDER kids for calling us that if that's what WE'RE saying.

Because they're always TREATING us like babies and won't take us SERIOUSLY as long as they see us as babies. Half of us are the SAME AGE as some of them so it's not like they have EIGHTY YEARS of EXTRA LIFE EXPERIENCE or something.

SERIOUSLY it's not like anti-prom is being organized by anyone in our class???? It's not like having a COUPLE OF YEARS on us suddenly makes everyone sooooo much better at decision-making. Like NONE of the people who were caught in the Grotto the last time were freshmen or sophomores???
