Were you a nerd in high school?

Nope

You don't really have to manipulate or put out, you just have to be friendly and nice.

Most people respond positively to friendly and nice.

Sorry.

Seriously, who writes these things?

Tell: After college: at least 22 y.o.....together 35 y.

Means she is at least 57, probably older.

People that age graduate FROM college...they don't graduate college.

You were a homosexual, and girls knew you were a safe friend.

By the time I was in ninth grade I was finishing my computer classes early and using Novell exploits. All those people that picked on me... Yeah.....

Barber or Clown College.

:fuck yeah:

"good dudes" have the same or similar problem

either they get no one or they continually get burned by those who recognize it and take advantage of it

I was in the chess club, i had special braces for physical education, i was in most of the top groups for most subjects, i was bored throughout education because i already knew everything i was being taught everyday, i got beaten up most days for listening to my walkman, i got beaten up most days for playing on my gameboy, i got beaten up for the change in my pocket, i got beaten up for answering questions in class, i basically got beaten up for turning up, i had buck teeth a stupid bowl haircut with a middle parting and wore glasses, i kept my uniform tidy and crisp and wore everything respectfully, i shined my shoes and kept clean because im a germaphobe! i was terrible at sports apart from basketball and would probably be found in the changing room after hanging from a hook by my underwear! i couldnt even look at a girl let alone talk to one i avoided them more than the bullies, so yeah i think if you want to define my school life to a descriptive word, then i guess i was a nerd!

So much bullshit......so much bullshit.



I have been to a webpage on Facebook which is dedicated to people who lived in my old neighborhood and graduated from my gradeschool.


I have read every entry.


It kind of depresses me because I don't understand why so many of the remarks are straight horseshit, or crazy spin is put on events or people to change the reality.

Either these people are lying and did not grow up in this neighborhood and don't know shit about it and are trying to
fake like they did, or people's memories are totally fucked.


It's really obvious that some people are using archives from the local paper to come up with shit.


It's obvious that maybe a small factoid is known and then the extrapolation just went completely off the rails when people tried to create a fake memory.


There are even many accounts of "where were you when Kennedy died," which are completely erroneous or straight lies, because I really was there and that is absolutely not what happened.

Anyway, this seems very much like the same thing.

Half the responses seem like they might be true, mostly the humble ones.

The ones that are just straight brags and self aggrandizement are from the nerds.

To those boys that had problems talking to girls, did you have no sisters? I had 2 sisters and was the only boy. I had zero problems talking with girls, my theory is that having sisters made girls less alien to me.

I was a giant band nerd. All things band. Wore my band jacket like a football player would wear his letterman jacket. I was the drum major for my junior and senior years. I was LOVED band. And was a major nerd about it.

Nope, however some buddies thought I should have been athlete of the year in high school…lol

I wasn’t really a nerd but I did a lot of random reading on science and math and biology and pharmacology type subjects in my spare time, because I was bored.

I wasn’t really shy, but I kept away from everyone and had all past no friends by choice. I didn’t relate to anyone.

Just basically smoked a lot of weed with a few close friends lol

Stoner

Nerdy and sporty. Loved science, math and Lit. Played soccer and was on swim team. But shy and a semi loner. Still read voraciously and love to swim.

Here is a story. My divorced mom when I was around 13 threaten to take away my cable TV. I was really addicted to wrestling like WWF.

I stopped her by telling her I would disconnect the electricity.

Oh, my... I was a good girl. Never gave a hard time to my grandparents. But my granddaddy didn’t like me watching “Married with children” and “The Benny Hill Show”, he used to turn off the tv.

I was a Band/Drum corps geek that played in local metal bands, was extravertive and funny, not shy at all, but had no real self confidence at that age. That didn’t really develop till College, so my HS years were full of missed opportunities.

My gang were the non conformists.We smoked dope in the boys room and acted like goons to the jocks. The nerds, we'd try to get them high. I used to hire myself out as a hit man of sort for a few dollars I'd punch a fucker that needed it in the face for you and tell him to leave you alone.


I excelled in science and math but never did a single homework assignment in 12 years of public schooling. Not once. My mother and father both agreed that school was for school and home was for home and we had to many chores and our own personal lives to do schoolwork at home.

By the time I graduated high school I had amassed over 8 years of detention, never went to that either.

I bet you clowns never figured out you didnt have to do homework or go to detention without being suspended from school.

They tried to suspend me right before finals in the 12th grade hoping to sabotage my future for refusing to go to detention and my dads lawyer made a mess out of them.

The school cannot require a student to do work at home or attend any after school activities such as in school detention. Students parents make them do it willingly because they perceive a threat which does not exist, a threat which is promulgated on them..the threat that the child will be expelled from school for not complying with unlawful demands.
Most parents would make their kids jump through hoops to keep them from that shame and loss of an education.

over half the stuff they did on that show
would cause an uproar if they did it today

What corps did you march?

I'm rather well known in the DCI world.......cough.

Thats true of almost every comedy show of the past

Political correctness has silenced most good comedy. Just think about Sanford and Son , the Jeffersons, and Archie, the open racist contempt, but we all laughed at it black or white.
Archie to his credit turned out to be a profit of sorts, they used the laugh track to ridicule him but people ended up loving him anyway, he doesn't seem so stupid any more does he?:

I joined the band in the 5th grade and the only instrument they had left was a Baritone, so I quit. Be damned if I was lugging that damned thing around with me for 6 more years.

The high school memories shed a lot of light on the comments here, don't they?
