Has anyone else noticed how much AZB resembles your lunchroom back in high school?


Table #1: Popular guy bad-mouthing unpopular guy. Naturally everybody agrees with the popular guy and the unpopular guy becomes less popular.

Table #2: Unpopular guy bad-mouthing popular guy. Nobody believes unpopular guy and wonders why he would make false accusations regarding popular guy. Unpopular guy becomes less popular.

Table #3, #4, #5: Popular guy and infamous guy talk about fighting by the swings. Everybody has blind faith in popular guy. We do not yet know if this fight will ever occur.

NPR Table: Left wing nerds vs. right wing nerds vs. conspiracy theorists vs. anarchists. The occasional funny-guy nerd makes an appearance.

WTB/WTS Table: Dealers and users. These guys don't get out too much. They are always on their quest for more.

Straight Pool Table: The rich kids always tend to stick together. Some might refer to them as the pompous elitists.

The Pros: The people everybody wants to talk to. The pros are kind of like those gorgeous and unapproachable girls. Whenever a pro comes around, he/she is showered with compliments; or insulted by the jealous.

The Jocks: Jude Rosenstock, Bob Jewett, Blackjack, I'm talking about you. The pool guys who always know the right shot.

Mr. Wilson: The dreaded principal. A trip to his office is never a good thing.

TAR: A/V Club. They are very secretive and everybody wants to know what their next project is.

Silver Wombat, DCP, Fast Larry: For some reason, they were always hiding in lockers, toilets, and on top of flag poles.

DCC: Homecoming. It's the first big game of the season. Where were you?

The New Guys: Yeah the freshmen are always asking the same stupid questions before first searching the map.

The Lurkers: You never know they're there, but they're always listening.

I never quite thought of it that way, but now that you point them out, the parallels are unmistakable.

By which I mean, I heard Jal asked Kelly Fisher to the prom. Like, OMG, what was he even thinking? I heard from Purdman, who heard from Bob Jewett, who heard from CrownCityCory, that she's going with sjm.

This is very funny stuff! And so true... don't forget the resident class clown, Smorg! :D (you know I love you, man!)

I feel like a lot of categories fit here... the guys who graduated high school a few years back but still hang around... the rebels... the academics... the over-acheivers... the yearbook staff (those people always posting pictures of events)...

When do we start handing out superlatives? ;)

Elitist? Not at all. We're happy to let the nine ball rabble sit at our table as long as they sit quietly, pay attention to the game and pick up the check.

Yes, true and funny.

High School..........:eek: .........I haven't had a thought about H.S. in years.

I was always the guy who had friends in most of the different groups. I crossed group lines all the time. I got very good grades at times, I played some sports and I hung out with the dirtbags a lot because they were the most "real" people there, not the fake persona types. I was the "Can't we all just get along?" guy. I think I'm still that guy some of the time. But now that I'm older I really don't care what anyone else thinks of me, I know who I am.

Is that a good or bad thing? :confused:

Sitting here thinking about lots of different memories of H.S. now. I'd go back to do it again if I could. Best times of my life before I had kids. :D

Good post. Thanks.
 
I forgot a couple.

The School Newspaper: Everybody has to read OMGWTF's new column. Surprisingly, we still don't know who this mystery writer is.

The Rival School: That's right, BD and IP. One of these days we'll have to hold a grudge match between the 3 schools.

I've always felt that way, thanks for the examples.

Just like in high school, I know some of the in crowd, but was accepted among them. lol.
In high school I hung with the juvenile delinquents (that's what we had back then, not gang-bangers). Would you please point me in the direction of AZB's JDs.
