I once squat down and had my pants rip wide and loudly in front of the whole class. Blowout across the entire length of my ass. It was a small class of people I knew somewhat well. I laughed it off, wrapped my jumper around my waist, excused myself from class and had to borrow some pants from the uniform shop. That probably would have been a much worse situation had I panicked, but I’m pretty sure everyone’s forgotten about it since it was only discussed during the day.

also quick fire /that kid/ stories:
- that kid who trooned out and asked most the girls from our year for feet pics after graduating (aforementioned in previous thread, also hooked up with 40 year old men on grinder and tried getting with me)
- that kid who showed his...
I passed out grimderp business card sized messages at high school reading "you will die alone and afraid, knowing that nobody ever really cared : )" one valentines day
it got a little awkward about ten minutes in when I found out somebody at school did a flip the night previous
but I stuck to the bit
 
Hung around with the goths, and "satanists". Even got accused of making a plot to bomb the school. I cussed out the vice principal for that, then my father came to the school and cussed him out too. No, I didnt get in trouble either.
High school theater too, which I admit could be really cringe. Most of the guys in theater were gay as hell, but.... there were plenty of nerdy art chicks too. Yes I danced in a musical production, damn right I did. Just because I could dance with the theater girls.
 
I was friends with the nerds who openly enjoyed anime. The fact that I escaped that black hole of degeneracy is a miracle.

That and basically every single interaction with the opposite sex. Holy shit, "clueless" doesn't begin to describe it.
 
After seeing Meet the Scout I really, really wanted a butterfly knife.

Did you know walking around the hallways flicking a pair of scissors from the arts room is just as cool?
 
Used to do the YouTube reaction face (long before the website existed) in pictures as a way of looking like I was having fun around people I hated.
I discovered after HS that telling people to fuck off was a lot less stressful than keeping up the façade.
 
I would go to school and instead of going to the classroom, I would go straight to the toilet and hide there until the end of the classes and then sneak out of school so nobody from my class ask questions. I would just sit on the lid of the toilet, listen to the music and read e-books all day lol
 
For a while in around 9th-10th grade I was spiking my hair and wearing those weird button down shirts with, like, dragons and shit on them. I looked like a dorky Ricky from trailer park boys.

I used to refuse to change in gym too, I’d go hide in the bathroom stall and change.

Grade school was worse, but I think everyone is pretty cringey when they’re that age.
 
I was in an emo-rock band
my brand of 70s hard rock wasn't putting ass on seats or pussy in my dick so a friend invited me to play lead for his band then made me a member. Still don't understand the music
 
Typical mid-2000s scene/emo shit. Straightened hair, painted nails, checkered studded belt, puffy ass Osiris shoes with mixed laces, whiney angsty noise for music tastes, whole nine yards.

Amazingly I never really got bullied for it and I grew out of it. In retrospect, it makes me cringe so hard it makes my brain fizz and I would have dunked teenage me in a trashcan.
