Is this divisive jock/preppy/nerd/skater/gangsta shit still going on 23 years after I left high school? I thought y'all zoomers were better than that.

Actually not. You can be a massive nerd these days and still go get fucked up and party.

There will always be popular extroverts and unpopular introverts.

A false dichotomy created by pop culture to divide teenagers into cliques.

I was the Internet/Gamer kid raised by television who got drunk at 17 and fell off a roof. Why was I drunk on a roof? Fuckin' 2001.

Not sure which category I fall under.

[–] platysalty@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah lol. I was an internet troll through and through, and somehow found my way into a pretty diverse group in uni.

I don't even want to start on the drunk shenanigans we got up to.

I lived in terraced housing and I used to walk across the steep rooftop of my house down to the neighbors. At the time I thought I was being cool, like my hero, Daredevil. Looking back on it now, it was ridiculously dangerous.

I lament the loss of quite a few of my parallel selves.

Gamers truly are the most oppressed ✊😪

I really don't care about party-goers.

[–] Anamana@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How about internet party goers

[–] Engywuck@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And how about lan-party goers?

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Drunken LAN parties. Ahh, those were the days

Alcohol gives you cancer, gaming does not.

You haven't played LoL, have you?

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think I tried it out but discovered that I find MOBAs boring as hell.

[–] ursakhiin 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's good. Otherwise, you'd probably have cancer.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't know if I did: I'm American, can't afford a doctor.

[–] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 5 points 1 year ago

Oh no, I was in the first group (for 3/4 of high school) and I definitely thought that I was a loser.

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Spoiler alert...

They both suck

I'm about to blaze up and jump into this Tarkov wipe with the boys. The fuck is this.

Bruh this meme is so stale could clobber someone to death with it
