It's easy if you try

Today, I did a tribute to Ukraine at my school’s end of the year talent show by singing “Imagine.” by John Lennon. I thought I did well, until a group of guys in the audience began roaring with laughter and pointing. Then more people followed. I didn’t finish the song and left the stage bawling. FML

“Imagine” is a song about a peaceful world. It’s a great song unless some foreign power is invading your country and you have to fight them off. I think I understand your intent. Most is us can agree that we want a peaceful world. I suspect you left something important out of the story - Either something else happened that was a distraction or you did a poor job singing it. Your heart was in the right place and then this happened… This is not the end of the world for you. Next year things will be better for you at school.

I hope I have your age range somewhat correct based on your story. Try to get through school and know that once you get into sophomore/junior/senior year at a university everything gets much better because 2/3 of the people in college grow the eff up. My main question is where was the person in charge such as the principal in all this???!!! Also know that by 40 most of the jocks and “skinny” people by 40 are “fat” and most of the “fa people and nerds are skinny and some are even great looking, and all make fun of how while everyone else’s lives moved forward, they’re best years we’re in middle through high school, and while everyone else has changed for the better, they’re most likely going to stay the same jerks they are unless they choose to change. I actually had a bully apologize to me over five years later. Hold your head high and keep on going forward and don’t look back. School from about middle school through high school is the most awkward time of people’s life. People can change if they choose to but they have to want to change first.

Sounds like part of the plot of Step Brothers. And that movie was ******* stupid, so J hope something good happens to you soon so you can get the bad taste of this out of your mouth and go forth and be awesome.

How can "Imagine" be a tribute to Ukraine? They want to keep their country and will kill and die for it. Your little ditty sounds like an homage to Putin, ya commie pinko bastard!

Covid Celebs ruined that song for everyone.
