Popularity

I don’t want to be popular. But there are a bunch of really popular girls who like me, and I don’t know what to do.

I WANT TO BE A NERD!

So what are your solutions?

Uh
Say no to skank

Don’t take a shower/bath for about 2 months and say it openly, don’t play any kind of sports and stay inside and play solitare durring school. Pick your nose every 23 minutes and keep going to this board.

Amaze people with your patheticly large knowledge of trivia and useless stuff.

Tried that. Twice.

VE… I do that all the time.

WTF!!!

My posts merged!

You tried to double post, right? New VB Code merges posts by the same person if they’re both made within an hour, I think, I forget.

Anyway, how about yuo get the crap beaten out of you, while yu complain in a whiny voice? That should work.

Ten bucks those girls are faking it.

Come on, you have to admit, it’s hilarious when people hit on losers!

no offense.

yeah it is hilarious. that’s why I don’t believe them when they hit on me, if they do :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m like one of the biggest nerds at my school and no one even knows it, and the people who do know it don’t care. :stuck_out_tongue:

I made an effort to be nice to people and help them out, so I’m just a smart kid who’s everyone’s friend in a way. Or more like I know people who know people, who know other people that I know, so I have a pretty good situation worked out.

Similar sitch here. My family’s motto? “I know a guy.” And it’s true, we know enough people and give out enough favors that we can get almost anything we may need.

You see, kiddies? Connections equal power.

Openly state that you are prejudiced against all races and/or you are waiting for the Overlords to take you home to H’gsah Gor.

Oh, and stupid Star Trek references. That almost always work.

Don’t stupidly like/dislike someone because they are popular/unpopular. :stuck_out_tongue:

In other words- if these people like you- let them. Become friends with them. Don’t be silly.

EDIT: And I’m surprised that you are all giving him such horrible advice… man…

Tell them that you’re not gay, but you’ll learn.

You sick fuck. Sure the girls are probably faking it, but either way, the wanting to be a nerd is sickening. Being one is one thing, but trying to be one is another.

Yeah- TRYING to be something like a nerd/metalhead/raver/goth/whatever is… uh… poseurish. :stuck_out_tongue:

Paint your nails.

Write poetry and mathematical equations on walls.

Freestyle on the virtues of cottage cheese.

Join the Paratheo-Anametamystikhood of Eris Esoteric.

Openly proclaim to be the second coming of the god Maquiladora.

Mutter.

Second-guess yourself and those around you. Spend lots of time thinking.

Stare at people for at least three seconds before responding to what they say.

Dance in the hallways.

Never give up.

Create a personal goal for yourself that you believe nobody has ever had for themselves before.

Be creative.

Wear a banana peel on your head. Pretend it’s not there. If anyone comments, act as though they’re crazy.

Never complain about what somebody else is doing, never explain what you’re doing.

Buy a pack of pepperoni from the supermarket and eat it all straight from the bag, without remorse.

Wear sunglasses on cloudy days and indoors. Hold an umbrella on sunny days.

Order your peers around. If they don’t obey, shrug and hum themes from obscure video games to yourself.

LISTEN.

Read Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment (one of the worthiest books ever written, I am beginning to find) in English class while the teacher is talking about a book that is decidedly of lesser quality. If the teacher asks you to stop, glance up at him/her with a twinkle in your eye, smile slightly, and continue reading.

Show respect where respect is due. You be the judge of that.

Watch “Donnie Darko.” It’s a quality movie, and no doubt you will enjoy it immensely.

Doodle. Have conversations with your artwork, aloud or in your head. If a certain doodle appears more than three times, give it a name.

Hug a tree.

Bring a sharpie of an unusual color to school, and ask people, “Give me your arm,” holding the sharpie at the same time. If they do so, draw an interesting design on them.

Don’t be afraid to be laughed at. If people are laughing with you, they don’t notice you, and you are thus popular. When people laugh AT you…that’s when you attain real fame (or infamy) and you will find that few people have the guts to associate closely with you. Those that do, are likely to be like-minded people.

Take long walks late at night, when everybody is asleep.

Rather than letting your arms swing as you walk, always be doing something with your hands while going from one place to another. Even if it’s just twiddling your thumbs, or touching one finger to another to another, or gesticulating madly at nothing; always be doing something.

Fall asleep in class.

Draw on your arms - if you’re a good artist, draw beautiful pictures. If you’re a bad artist, draw stuff anyway, but stick to geometric designs. Believe me, it looks pretty fricken sweet.

And, most importantly, never, NEVER look back. Don’t be embarrassed at ANYTHING you or others say or do.

Hmm … You might be a victim of the “Tenchi Effect”, aka the “Ranma Effect” or the “Megaman Volnutte” effect, i.e. the entire female cast falling for the dorky male lead.

This guy’s a real person, not a “male lead” in anything.

He’d be the main character in his biography.

Yeah, but it’s not an anime.

Point. But still …
