    Poser for liking LP. Sell-out for liking LP. "gay" for liking LP. Skater, stoner, goth, freak, punk, geek, and oh the list goes on. Constant, and constant bashing every damn day about my stereotype. I honestly don't think I have one either. If I am, I don't know it. If I'm any of the above, I don't care. It's me. :mellow:

    What makes me angry is the crowds.
    There's three at my school

    1. The 'in/popular' group, which has girls and guys in the latest brand clothes, always following fashion, into rap/pop music and all of the girls have blonde hair and those really short skirts.

    2. The nerds, you know, computer geeks, games freaks glasses, you know what nerds are like..!?

    3. Freaks, yep, we all have them...goth/punk/emo and so on.
    But there's hardly any freaks.

    I am considered one of the freaks. I've been called only goth, because no one in my school is familiar with the terms punk or rocker or even familiar with the fact that not everyone likes the same things.

    Oh, I'm not goth by the way!!

    Uhmm, I hang out with a gang of 'nerds'. In fact, I you could call me a nerd. All we do is talk about computer stuff. Doesn't mean that we should be stereotyped in such a way that we look like skinny little losers.

    From 6-8th grade I was in the so-called "popular" group. One of my friends that I grew up with was in the popular group so I was accepted into the group mainly because of that. I was popular/cool by association. It had its perks but I didn't really like it. The group always made fun of people and I felt ashamed and embarassed because that wasn't who I was. I don't like to bring people down. It's interesting when your popular but for the most part, I wouldn't want to be popular again.

    When I started high school it was a complete turn around. I was automatically labeled as a "loser" and "freak". It sucks. I don't want to be popular but all I want is respect from people. Unfortunately I do not get any of that. I deal with it. There are times when the teasing gets under my skin but I just have to live with it and try to ignore it.

    I am sterotyped as a loser and a freak. Oh the immaturity of it all. :rolleyes:

    Does Vanil4_Intel look like a geek? All I do is talk about computers all day. Anime, games, software, we make dorky jokes and hang out in the excluded hallways. My little group of geeks make good grades, but we don't look like geeks. I get called a stoner more than a geek, and I don't smoke pot. :whistle:

    Are you talking about the disease that Michael Jackson has? If so, that's called Litigo, and it's also called Michael Jackson's Disease. My mother's side of the family has that disease, and so do I. But I'm not black, for the record. I'm Sioux indian, so my skin is naturally darker. But the disease makes parts of my skin appear really pale. My mom's hands are, like, 10 shades paler than her arms. It's crazy.

    for so many of you saying "i dont care what people think" you sure are complaining a lot about people labeling you as a certain thing.
