To validate your perspective: I am a hiring manager in tech in the US. I will greatly discount any resume over 2 pages (especially for a higher level candidate). For entry level candidates, one page is sufficient for me. I'm also less concerned about gaps in resumes and more concerned with ability to learn - so I look for things that demonstrate that.
Prom is part of the culture and teenage experience here. Some people are more into it than others. It's ok not to totally understand or like it. I'm sure there are things that we don't understand about other places too.
Culture, yes. Class, maybe not. 😉

Sa: business meeting with my dad, play with kids, nap, grocery shopping
Su: play with kids, nap, play with kids
I'm in charge of all adhoc things outside of the house and financial. Husband is a stay at home parent and does all the home stuff.
Back in the days of non-ironic MySpace, I used it to promote my band and my now husband was one of the people I contacted. A few days after that, we ran into each other at a local bar in line for the bathroom. I got his contact info and asked him out on a date. We've been together since.

I think of it as being similar to the fantasy genre - which often has things like oarks, trolls, etc. Billionaires are the oarks of romcoms. 😉
