I currently do not know where the hell I stand in school. I personally see myself as the necessery evil (sorry, listening to Napalm Death).

In junior high, the outcast were all the special ed students, some of who were ret*d amongst other things.

In high school, the outcasts were the "trench coat mafia" people. Acutally, they all wore dusters, but still, I never really found a group to fit into.

It wasn't until I was a senior in high school - 1997, that I actually I could claim that I would have a friend.

Did you go to COlumbine? If you did: whoa. That is soo kickass.


why?

Because I am fascinated with Columbine. I find it extraordinary that so many people survived.

I just hang out with the urban Asian (Asian Gangsters) and African American crowds. I also have some Latino friends. All of the white crowds (goths etc) except for the 'wiggers' ostracize me because of my Malcolm X-like stance on things.

That I don't know (I just graduated with a masters in accounting) although am considering law school. Most of the people in high school were social misfits who probably never went to college and will end up making 30k at age 50, and retire into abject poverty. Usually people I don't like I just rip apart in debates. Usually the people I debate are people who didn't get their RNC talking points fax that day.

Yeah, my dad says that when I'm out of high school, the social structure will change a lot. He says that life is totally different, and usually the popular people were the people who relied too much on people and were stuck in poverty. It doesn't happen to everyone that's popular, though. I am not prejudice of popular or preppy people, though, and I don't let them use my work anymore (like I did in freshmen year) so that they could have good scores on their work. I didn't know I was being manipulated, since they said that I was 'helping them study' or something. I was actually happy because they couldn't use me anymore. I like helping people, but not cheating for them. Anyways, my dad says that high school is totally different from real life, and that it will be a huge change when I get out in the real world, where I'll stand and everything.

I really enjoy tormenting people on my bus with incredibly brutal extreme metal.

aspiegirl2, that's what my parents say, too. :) I don't have any problems with popular people, as long as they're genuine and they treat me at least civilly. One of my best friends happens to be popular and a bit of a prep. Heh, I wonder why they said that opposites attract...

Some of my friends are popular. They are awesome, but they criticise my music.

I'm something of a loner, but I might also be described as a 'geek'. I do occasionally hang out with some groups (Tho' by my definition of 'hanging out', that just means 'sitting at the same lunch table with'), but I'm definitely not a 'card-carrying member' of any of them.

Then just critisise them back. Everyone's entitled to their taste in music. I don't have a problem with your taste, but that's only because it's kinda similar to mine.

I probably won't. It is annoying though, because I was one time singing the Cradle of Filth song "Gilded C**t" while my popular friends and I were messing around at the University and one turned around and said as a joke: "Ha ha, you have never even seen a c**t!" Because of the fact that I am still a virgin and he is not.

Oh well. In school I hang around with Murray Andrews and we generally listen to extreme metal together. But one time as a joke he said he was going to play Dying Fetus and played some Jazz from Bill Bailey's Part Troll show, and so we were laughing at singing about gore to the jazz tune.

I was respected by pretty much everyone, but I never really integrated myself into a group, other than "low-lifes" and outcasts. I was a honors student and quite popular with the faculty, and in fact, probably closer to them than to the other students.

I was quite happy this way in HS, and I have few regrets.

SLightly similar situation, but my teachers probably think I will kill everyone one day.

That's pretty much the way I am in high school. I'm more popular with the faculty (because I reason better with adults than with people as young as me), and I don't hang out with just one group; rather, I have a few friends, but they are from different groups in the high school. I seriously don't know what to lable myself. I am a nerd/jock/loner/bandgeek or something like that. Even though I don't hang out with a particular group, I like my friends anyway.
