Are you popular in school/life/work?

I'm one of the least popular guys I've heard of, so my life basically sucks:D
But I've still got HLP!:D

Hmmm. I don't really know.

On the one hand I hang out with lots of people, have plenty of friends and am generally liked/tollerated, but none of them would think twice about screwing me over to gain money/fame/popularity/women/etc.

I hate my friends.

When I was in school, it seemed that everyone knew me, even people I had never seen before. And I take extraordinary measures to ensure that my popularity stays at nil too... :p

Middle, here. I don't have all that many friends who will call me up to get together, but I guess that's because I'm in my early 20's, and life hits one hard around then. Also, most of the people I know my age around here I've only known for the last year or so at the maximum - people come and go all the time here. There are 4 people around my age that I've known ever since I've been here (1989), that are still around. Kinda sucks. :doubt:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Not sure. I used to be the sort of kid everyone tried to beat up and ****, then I became class toady, and now I sit around and make fun of my class, with them being generally too dumb to notice. I guess I'm pretty popular. And I have a good time with most everyone I meet outside of school. So yeah.

Every last person at my school knew me. My antics are the stuff of legends at that place.

Popular? Not likely.

Even in a community of like minded sorts (the Navy) I tend to be a loner. I'm reasonably well liked, but there is no one who would point to me as a 'popular' guy.
[I am not really here. This post is entirely a figment of your imagination.]

 
I actually try to stear away from people, at least in my real life.
I really dont like people so much; that's why I have been a loner for as long as I can remember.
But I like it, actually.
It gives me freedom to think and to speculate, outside of the "mainstream".

I'm a dreamer; and I'm proud of it! :D

As for being popular; how can I be popular when I never actually talk to anyone in real life?
Being popular is not important to me, I actually dont care what others think about me at all.

Ehhhmm, i wouldn't say 'popular' in that i don't hang with all the preps, but i'm pretty "well known" i guess, sincei started the hacky-sack club, the kung-fu club, and i co-founded the 'civil rights club' :)

also i know a lot of the girls, because i take pictures for the school yearbook and stuff, and i get to take pictures of the cheerleaders, etc.

You say all that likes it's a good thing. In my opinion, anyone related to, associated with or otherwise affiliated to any club(s)/group(s) should be lined up at break, stripped naked, skinned infront of the masses and rolled in salt before being beaten to death with a very large bat, ala the end of Casino.

What about the Young Anarchists' Club?

At any rate, you wouldn't be able to get me to do any of that. We go down fighting for the Cause, and we WILL be victorious in the end.:D

 
I suppose i am in the middle too.  My school year is currently, quite small (about 30) other than that i know some people from other schools, but loads.
Anyway, i dont really have any enemies, but not loads of people who are dying for my attention.
