popular emma loves ogden nash some melodies are popular as well as classical which i suppose makes them popsicles 990124 ... dallas This is the prize. It's what you get when you let yourself forget that there's more important things in life. Unfortunately, most of those other more important things really don't matter to most people. 990128 ... Colleen Laura, what made me like you so much? Was it rebellion that made us do silly things? I hate the look people give us now. What was so fun about burning Depeche Mode tapes? I can't see into you and neither can anyone else. Do we really hate those "others"? I want my tape back. Isn't there a part of you that wants to be like them? How do I walk away from you and find myself? 991112 ... spikey-ho is what you get when you sell yourself like a cheap whore... 991214 ... spikey-ho I MEANT when you sell your SOUL like a cheap whore. *sigh* oh weeeeelll... 991214 ... oodles i'm quarterback, i'm popular 000218 ... Zoe i never wanted to be popular. in reality, if you think that being popular means that you know people and people like yyou, i would say that i am popular. all the "real popular" people in my school hare hated, like they should be. Ha Ha He He! 000722 ... peyton I'm never last picked.. I got a cheerleader chick.. I'm the party star.. I'm popular.. I've got my own car.. I'm popular.. I'm the teacher's pet.. I make the football jet.. I'll never get caught.. I'm popular.. I hope you all burn. 010201 ... stopthebullshit Some people are just more socially special than you are. I am pretty and smart and funny and popular...I can usually choose who will love me next. If pretending to be indifferent makes you feel better about not being popular, then good for you. Run with that. You have your *more important things to think about*...and a lot more free time to think about them than us popular folk. We need the dull people like you to make us shine...It's a comparative thing. It's surprising how quickly you people will ditch your *more important things* for a new chance under the spotlight...or for a relationship with someone who's already there. 010301 ... florescent light You're also full of yourself. Though you do have a point, I won't deny you that. People resent what they feel threatened by and what they don't understand. Anyone who says "such and such people are dull..." and "Popular people are that..." Are being no better than that which they are describing. And they are stating their own insecurities. Moreover, they are being shallow and stereotypic. And, by creating a barrier between that which they don't understand and resent - they are catagorizing themselves. And sure, they can say.."My group of people is better than yours" But if their group of people are the ones doing the catagory bashing - Which group of people would you concider shallow? Which group of people has already proven that they are unnoble by seperating themselves, and saying that your group sucks? 010301 ... Aimee popular is something that lasts only within the k-12 walls, for the most part. In the real world, it doesn't matter if you were a cheerleader, or if you were the starting quarterback(unless you manage to make it into the NFL) and most of all, being the fucking prom queen is nothing. It's a tiara, and your picture in the yearbook celebrating how well you could kiss ass and convince your fellow classmates that you're not as shallow as you really are. Popular is a celebration of manipulation. I am glad I'm not popular. 010301 ... kleatol I think Aimee is completely right,she couldnt have said it better.All the so called "popular" people in school are all fucking sheep, they look the same, they act the same they dress the same in there fucking princess, and angel shirts jesus christ can they really think its ok to look, act and dress exactly like everyone else? i think they all need to get a fucking mind of there own for once. 010608 ... nocturnal at work that's such a stereotype! there are lots of people that are popular BECAUSE they are different. they do their own thing and everybody likes them. don't condemn a whole group of people for the behavior of a few. 010608 ... kleetos i have had plenty of chances to be "popular" i dont wasn to be. Being popular means u have to think everyones underneith you and thats bullshit. the same people that you undermind, that u think are lower than you, will probably be your boss someday.HA assholes 010608 ... Dafremen I think there's nothing wrong with being popular. As for STRIVING for popularity. Hey human interaction is like a swimming pool, some people just can't handle the deep end. 010608 ... nocturnal at work I agree with daffy. there's nothing wrong with being popular. who says you have to think everyone's underneath you? that's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard! you're popular if lots of people like you. that's all. it doesn't mean you HAVE to do anything. some people take their popularity to mean that others are beneath them, but by no means does popularity obligate you to do so. 010608 ... kleatos and i am one of those people who are popular because they are different. i dont dress like the other girls, i dont act like the other girls and thats why everyone who is "popular" tries to talk to us. tries to have fun like us. we know how to have fun and we dont care what people think about us and thats an awesome feeling to just not care. try it sometime, most people cant without feeling insecure. it takes a while to get use to but FUCK being popular, we dont need that social group to feel good about ourselves and that is exactly what it is. 010608 ... Dafremen That's really the funniest thing. Alot of the advice I've tried to give comes down to exactly what kleatos just said. Stop taking everything so seriously and to hell with the folx that do. 010608 ... unhinged being popular just makes one's life harder. cause you have to separate all the sincere people from the people who just want to cuddle up to you to get a little piece of your spotlight as someone else put it. true friends are hard to find as it is, but being popular makes it that much more impossible. i think that sometimes popular people can be excessively cruel. but i think that all human beings can be excessively cruel. we all just have a bad habit of idolizing people. 010608 ... Dafremen Heheh...well except for maybe Einstein...I don't. Not a one...nope not even Al...he would have abhorred the thought of being idolized. I can't say that I blame him. We would have had some REALLY cool conversations about nothing at all and we would have BOTH enjoyed them more than all of the other intellectual mind spew that we'd been exposed to before. Why? Because we'd forget about the "important stuff" long enough to do what we both enjoyed immensely. Use our imaginations like children again, step OUTSIDE of the box. Too bad the man's dead....anyone care to step outside of the box for awhile? 010918 ... einstein anal rules. 011015 ... Norm Popular whore. 011015 ... are sigh... 020218 ... blaber mouth I've got a car im popular?!?! what was that guy thinking 020715 ... MeKoy now a days its what we like to call a prep. They have to be perfect their colthes perfect thier hair and have tons of money. friends with people inly for the way they look and not for what they are. But to be popular should be an award for someone who doenst care what be look like but for who they are in the inside and is willing to give everyine a chane. 031226 ... nonlucid people who like to be counterculture or different or weird or special aren't allowed to like popular things, they say, move towards something good and then drop it as it attains popularity, because the majority is always wrong, and popularity ruins things tell a friend, don't tell the world 040715 ... thequeenbaby of course 040923 ... peyton look at how they flock to him from an isle of open sores he knows that the taste is such such to die for 050518 ... whatever nevermind 050816 what's it to you? who go blather from
