A Gist of Fullfilling a Stereotype

It's funny, there are some people you just know live as though they were sent by "God" or a Polytheistic Deity of some sort, in order to fill a stereotype. Maybe not exactly in "real" life, but definitely in high school (a.k.a. a mental institution for Ass Holes). Sure, you as a student are given the basics; jocks, preps, punks, hippies and the ever-so-popular nerds. And then you are given the chance to decide which to be;
  • a drunken date raper who on the side kicks ass at a sport (usually football)
  • a plastic barbie doll who only shops at Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch and if they're really classy then J. Crew, Oh and did I forget? They are the ones who are being date raped by the jocks then brag about "losing" their virginity the Monday after. Pshh, they didn't lose it, someone frickin stole it from it.
  • a punk who smothers ourslef with black, red or pink (f you're really cool) and never actually make eye contact with people which is considerably better than being drunk off of "vodka" and "Gin".
  • a HIPPIE! who seems all nonchalant and chill with a multi-colored tie-dye shirt and Birkenstock Sandals with The Beatles mixed with Sublime playing in the background, oh and don't forget that "incense". Which is cool, but almost as bad as the jocks because after they get high they go about their lives thinking pot is great for you and is a universal cure for all the troubles in the world; which we all know isn't true.
  • NERDS! The best one on my list (truly the best one), and you know why? Because they have a sense of pride; they know when to work hard and when they do, they create masterpeices, well most of the time. They are the only ones I can say fo sho that don't actually inject into their bodies some sort of toxic substance; they inject knowledge!
    But wait there's more!
    And I'm not lying, because of my favorite type of school system (again not lying), public schools don't mess around when it comes to "clicks". There are three more!
  • (1) Emo/Scene- slit your wrists because of made-up depression and over-dramatized dilemmas plus they, most of the time, listen to Panic! At the Disco, My Chemical Romance, Coheed and Cambria, All Time Low, or AFI (basically screaming about random imaginary troubles of some sort).
  • (2) The Artsy Fartsy kids who I just recently learned do Crack (straight up!). So evidently they do most of their art projects while high. kinda weird.
  • (3) MY ALL TIME MOST FAVuORITE (thanks monkeys who had to make a cd spelling weird) the people who actually know themselves the most; the people who are individuals. It's like fashion, you take a little bit from Prada, a little from Oscar de la Renta, maybe some Target (isaac) and maybe even from Gap and mix it all together to make a masterpiece!

Anonim tha...

this is one of my favorites
I was just talking about this the other day

I'm so tired of people stereotyping themselves and others. Even if i do fit with a clique that's not who i am. I'm Taylor and that's it. I could go on for so long about this...

but here's my contribution to the growing cliques people feel the need to identify with:

my interpretation of scene: bright colors (rainbows and cupcakes), angled/dyed hair and bows, constantly talk about music they know you don't know and they either do a lot of drugs or are straight edge 4 lyfee
mall rat: bleh you can pick out where every item of clothing they're wearing comes from or they're wearing the same outfit as like 45345 other people
indie kids: sweaters, glasses, like lots of obscure music and books
people that make you go ARAJKAKDS!!!: always look good, the people we hate to love, always get their work done but somehow aren't nerds, everyone seems to like them, you get the point haha

and last but not least (my favorite):
the Hsquared Taysquared clique:
make jello on the weekends, hate their cell phones, love shopping, wear contacts (and glasses on occasion), love music and art, straight edge but don't feel the need to shout it in everyone's faces, democrats, take lots of pictures and of course wear matching shoes and coats in the rain haha
