I know what you mean, man. I was there myself, though I grew up in the Eighties. I originally was going to include my personal experiences but erased them before posting. Why? Well, because I felt it was mildly selfish. After all, I was already in my twenties when this video came out, and it felt like the past. And I had friends that were even more outcasts than I was, so I don’t want to pity my younger self.
To me, the message of the video is in the final frozen faces of the classmates in the end. The whole “it went too far, and now it’s too late for him.” It still is a punch in the gut when I see it.
