I guess the group I fit in the best was the jocks/superficial popular people.

I guess I would say I was a loner, but I kinda hid that because I could always talk to one of my friends who did swimming/waterpolo/tennis and that would magically make me seem more popular to girls.

well i'm pretty much close to what Prometheus already said, pretty much was closer to the faculty then the students. (guess i was more mature then the students, but quiet and never talked to students) well besides that was pretty much bullied by a bully till my jr high school years, and then was popular among the basketball crowd (3 pointers) in high school, even though i got anxiety attacks once in a while in high school. but i was mainly a html programmer in school. did alot of website stuff.

I hang out with everyone. I am in the private church school with a senior class of 12. However, my closest friend has graduated and I have no one to talk about video games with anymore. Most are jocks, one is school-paranoid, another is dating-paranoid, another is suspended for holding oxycontin, and Matt and I are the antisocial jib-jabbers. But most of my hang-outs are graduated slackers which I communicate through the Xbox Live. The juniors are complete preppies, and most of the underclassmen are too trend-oriented. I fear that this school actually becoming a conventional snooty private school instead of the animated, campy family it used to be.

My favorite faculty have left the school. One complained about the headmaster (who doesn't), another was too "spiritual", she tried to "cast demons" on my anxiety attack, though still cool. Another, my Bible teacher, went back to counseling. When he gave me the top grade award, he commented that he needed to bring mind-bending theology so "I don't fall asleep." (Though everyone else did, for some reason). Most teachers think of me as some Bond villain with an elaborate plan to, ya know, rule the cosmos.

The group that I got along best with was the music/drama geeks. But they were just school friends; never came home with me.

Course, it helped that I was in band . . .

The rest of the outcasts were the ones who were mentally ret*d . . . and while I didn't know where I fit it, I definitely knew that I wasn't intellectually disabled.

When I was in school, I didn't feel accepted at all. I just sat by myself mostly and people avoided me. I didn't actually hang around with anyone. In high school I hung around with my two friends.

I play cards in the caf at lunch, with a bunch of other people who don't really fit in anywhere else. We're a pretty accepting group, as long as you aren't an a**hole and don't try to pick fights. We have the weirdest conversations, but if no one wants to talk, then thats what the cards are for.

I'm at College, but RPG loving geeky eccentrics are people who really help me.

The group I want to associate with doesn't exist at my school.

Same here. I thought a lot of my fellow biology students would be passionate about science like me, only to find that a lot of them are apathetic and only see a biology major as a stepping stone to medical school.

No, I meant socially and politically liberal people who like South Park.

I always thought that people found South Park funny regardless of political orientation.

In this case, I was referring to social liberals. A socially conservative person wouldn't be able to see past the foul language.
