LCHS Yearbook Gets Bad Reviews

Psychedelic yearbook w/drug, sex references upsets ‘quite a few”


Jesse Tinsley/Spokesman-Review

Students James Thomes and Jeremy Guzman (above right and left) pointed out several pictures and quotes in the book that they said have kids talking. One shows a swim team member holding a stuffed animal’s leg in a sexually suggestive manner. A quote near the end of the book features the yearbook editor saying, “Puff puff pass MOFO. Oops did I just say that in the yearbook?” One girl writes that her goal is to be a MILF, referring to a sexually attractive mother. … A photo of group of friends has “rolling with the homies” written across it, with “I need a glass of water” above. Ecstasy users often say they are “rolling” when high on the drug, which causes dehydration.

Question: How do you view this yearbook controversy? Youthful hijinks? Or not a laughing matter? Was there any controversy surrounding your high school yearbook?
