Luckily, there were no select cliques at my school, but say there were groups.

I was in the intellectual group, and friendly with the cool partying clique.

I was 'enemy' (sorta) with the immigrants clique and the hockey clique.

NOW let's explain the immigrant thing. Consider that I live in Quebec, and that most immigrants here speak English and openly mock French- which is why the immigrant clique is often enemy with the separatist/leftist clique.

Is it just me, or does it seem like the only posters in this thread have been older than the OT norm?

Lightblue and GePap. At my school, I'd say easily about 90% of the student body were actively involved in sports plus something else such as yearbook or theatre. Lightblue'd fit in just fine.

SpencerH, what do you expect? Old farts reminicing about our younger days.

Where are the responses from the children who normally infest OT? The whole point of this thread is to collect dirt that can be used against them! I'm on a crusade dammit!

Let's see.

I belonged to the Magic the Gathering 'clique', and to the Jocks who do unpopular sports, because they are too short for Volleyball and Basketball clique.

I was also in the Debating society clique, but that was pretty small considering that I started the club.

I mostly didn't care about whom I talked or hung out with.

Im not over 18 yet. It would appear my mother still has the power to lock me in the house, so as far as i am concerned, i am still a child.

Didn't you say you had sex some large number of times within a 24 hour period? You had to have talked to someone to do that.

So did I, only back in public school at age 15-16. I established quite a group of Magic followers, actually. They all lost to Monk's Black Monk deck of Doom, however. So would you

Considering that my cards sucked then....

But they are better now.

I have a bounce deck of WUG that works quite well at disabling other decks.

Now, it's about 700 kms from me, so I can't play.
