Subject: High School Stereotype Poll

Written By: Kyle on 05/28/05 at 6:48 pm

I say I mostly like fall into the individual, band geek, and outcast category, even though I have some stoner genes into me too.  I may be a little bit of a redneck, too.

Reply soon!

Unfortunately don't have high schools here in the UK, and I don't know what half of them mean. Is there a one that means "i don't stand out, i'm just a normal, average student? Coz thats the one i'll vote on

Individual

I was more of a "Floater" among the cliques. I had friends who fit at least five of those stereotype. Even the Valley Chicks, we had one girl from Cali in my class! "Like oh my gawd, it was like toootally wierd dude!" :) "A Valley Chick in Manhatan, gag me with a spoon"

Stoner - although I didn't do drugs, smoke or drink I found that the stoners at my school were the most accepting of all the kids.  I could be myself, didn't have to change to hang with them.

I was the individual (never bothered to "follow the crowd") yet alot of people still managed to talk/hang around with me. But I'm still glad High School is over.  :P

DAMN!!! Another poll with no "OTHER" option!!!! I fell into the jock/loner/nerd catagory....it was amazing. I was ignored by the "Popular" group until I won a mile run in 9th grade....then the cheerleaders were all over me ::)

Interesting poll.

I'm a bit of several, but I voted for "Band geek/Choir nerd" because it's the closest to theatre/acting on the list - well, and I've always liked music too.

I've got some Loner/Individual in me -- I honestly never fit into any one clique. I wasn't friends with everyone, but out of the friends I did have in HS, they were all over the board (maybe they should make a new category specifically for me: mediator :D ).

Also, even though I've very rarely smoked (weed) or drunk, I always liked the stoners - they were really cool and laid back IMO. ;)

I was a bit of a lot of things-loner/choir-theatre geek/stoner but I think I would have to say OTHER: New kid in town. (Which I was in 9th, 10th and 12th grades-not to mention many more years in elementary and Jr. High)

That't too bad.  Then again, I hung out with that group 16 years ago, other things have changed since then, I am sure stoners have, too.

Well.. on the Poll Stoner, most of my friends experimented with stuff.. and ocasionally i would as well.

However.. much as Jiminy has already said.. 'CLOWN!' The Uber Class Clown.

Achievments included making an R.E Teacher cry by asking her to prove everything she said and convincing the English Substitue we had for 2 months that i was Andre from Estonia. (We had a guy in our class at the start of the Year called Andre from Estonia.. he left over the christmas break but his name was still on the register.)

Seriously, I was a combo of Artsy Individual/outkast, nerd, and slut (funny, how I got this title after unknowningly dating someone else's boyfriend!). I hated high school!

Whoa, It seems like the loners are ruling this thread.  ;) Why?  Maybe because you don't really have to many friends in the outside world, so you just hop along onto this fascinating website, and get some homiez here.  Go you; I sure need som replies!

Thatz the way you should be; you don't have to be a slut, nerd, or jock to get by in life.  Just be yourself!  Easy as that!

Guess what "slut" means.  ;D

In all honesty, I don't fit any of these. I talk to everyone.. although one friend said I was a popular kid with everyone.. but the kind with morals and a lack of disdain for others.

I'm either Goth, EMO {not for fashion, strictly for the fact I'm a bit of a downer naturally}, or Nerd {intellectual}

Well I did make lots of nice friends and I did talk to a lot of people...but I don't know which of the categories I fell into. :-\\ And I did start to become popular with the girls during my sophomore year, so I had lots of girls sign my yearbook each year. 8) That's a good thing.

I was a Goth/ Metaller (I don't know what you'd call it, but a sort of cross between the two, with a bit of punk thrown in for good measure). Most of the Stoners in my school were Metallers also, so I used to hang out with them, but never tried drugs until well after school (too scared my parents would find out!). Black is still my clothing "colour of choice"...
