Everyone hates the popular kids. Yet, they're still popular. That never did make sense to me.

Some of the popular people I knew when I was in secondary school were OK, the were nice, intelligent people, sometimes chatty in class and silly, but genuinely okay. Then there were the idiotic popular people, who just think that they are cool for smoking and drinking and having you-know-what underage. Who bully everyone else apart from people on their level, so people like me got especially picked on.
And the "nice" popular people did have one fault...it was mainly them whose photos were in the Year 11 yearbook! Me and my friends put loads of pics in at the beginning, but didn't make it to the final book. It wasn't like they were boring pictures, I had lots of funny ones! Ah well...

I'm in a school of 80; this private school and most of my peers are quite friendly and open to my condition, though the underclassmen are forming cliques too trendy and superficial, and a couple of jocks are a little cruel, but most think positive.

Most of my bullying happened in primary school, that episode will soon be in this blog. Wink

I don't hate the popular kids at my school. In fact, I like a lot of them. Some of the time I am one of them. They may be popular, but they're still people... they're so close and social, and I've always loved that. Again, like I said in the "I hate teenagers" thread, I love the community that people like that have, and this sense of life that I've never gotten with anyone else. In fact, at my school the backstabbers and kids who start rumors aren't as popular. Tons of people hate them. But the kids that are popular are more fun. So yeah, I don't hate them at all.

Yeah, I don't understand why they were even popular. Some were nice but most of them were really immature.

It should be legal, no mandatory, to shoot popular kids on sight!

i dont hate the popular kids, i just despise them. i despise the whole celebrity-popular gumbo jumbo. why some people would supress their trur identity to remain popular i dont know. its almost like its a drug to them, and their afraid of the withdrawel sympthomes.

I'm okay with them...untill they start making fun of people. Those are the annoying ones. But I've met a lot of really nice popular people who are smart and can always find something to talk about other than their peirs.

the term "popular" is used in the wrong way.

Cool Popular basically means you are well known. Someone can be popular but be a VERY nice person. I have known people like that in my life, but I also know people that are popular and are very mean and crude. Mad

I wasn't keen on them... then I became one. However, that was through showing kindness and caring for everyone who knows me. I hope that the kind of attitude I'm showing as someone popular will spread on soon, and make them realise that the not-so-popular people have feelings, too, and need to be heard. I just cannot bear people who are horrible to others, It just makes me furious.

I could honestly careless, it's just when people become so fastidiously concerned with their level of 'coolness' within the clique, and how they're perceived by other 'cliques' that dictate what they can do, and what others can't do that bothers me. Without order pervading every level of the system, humans tend to make their own subsystem within the system, although still dictated by the rules, it can be taken to an extreme, even enough so to neglect the rules... I don't mind slack, I just dislike the fact that it's abused. Slack is given with good connotations in mind, a good example of this would be specific trails meant for certain transportation vehicles, although if one floods, others from the trail that flooded will travel to the trail that can be used for such a purpose more efficiently, without noting the damage that can be done.

That and well, the hallmark of the 21st century is entertainment and other such fads of similar nature. Not education, or anything remotely similar to it. To what extent are we going to cripple ourselves from letting the structure become more lenient? Lenient not in a liberal sense of the word, but in a sense that complete failure is accepted, drugs are accepted, completely absurd rationalities and subjects are taught for the sake of preserving our freedom to do so.

I'm quite popular at my school, but not very popular like as in "Do you like to come over?" and get presents for Christmas and birthdays.
