Who was the weirdest kid in your school?

[Chris Piers]

I'm not looking for names or sad stories of kids getting picked on. But almost everyone has one or two kids in school that were just WEIRD. Like, I remember there was one girl in my Latin class that began wearing a cloak with a hood around the halls in high school.

Or there was the kid a few years behind me who wore a tie to school (public school) with no irony. He would carry a mug of coffee and greet the teachers in the hallway - "How are you on this fine day, sir?"

I'm sure several of you can top this.

[xadrian]

I was usually the weird kid. I wore clothes that didn't match styles or era's. I had hair like Carrot Top. I was really hyper and loud.

I did go to high school with a 7'2" guy who was in theater and, if you can imagine, could have been the model for Urkel. He was probably the oddest.

[Inkthinker]

I wasn't the wierdest... but I was defintley one of the "wierd, geeky, nerdy" group. Didn't know music, fashion, or sports, and seldom cared.

The funny bit is that I totally blossomed after high school. Got the girl, the car, the cool job... I am SERIOUSLY itching for a high school reunion (and due for one next year, I think, but I don't know how that gets set up. Knowing my high school, fat chance of it happening at all).

Heh... I did meet one of the "cool" kids recently. He works the register at the 7-11 near my house. He's always very friendly to me when I see him, but he was such a punk to me ten years ago...

I rocked a clock to school.

[Chris Piers]

You mean you were cool or you actually wore a clock a la Flava Flav?

[saTHOMASo]

we had that really weird kid in class ... he couldn´t swin and he hardly washed himself ... that´s why he almost failed in sports because he never attended the swimming lessons ... and we just made fun of him because beside he smelled bad ... he thought he could become a comic artist some day ... any to be true his art looked shitty that even i drew better than him at that time without any practice

[CWmax]

speaking of weird...."Latin Class"???????

[Chris Piers]

Yeah, in my high school you had to take a foreign language for a few years and I chose Latin. That's weird?

[Inkthinker]

Not really wierd... just vaguely useless unless you plan to use it as a springboard to learn other mediterranean languages. Or you just want to sound really snooty.

[bfowler]

I'm in a similar boat as you Inkthinkier. Was a totaly geek in highschool. I remember one time there was this girl I really liked my senior year and one of my friends was talking with her one day and told her I was interested in her. She had no idea who I was until he pointed me out. Then she exclaimed. "Oh, yea, the guy who likes comic books." I just pulled my X-men t-shirt over my head and cried.
The good news is my 10 years reunion comes up this year but our senior class leaders are supposed to be responsible for that and one of my best friends was elected. Only he's a pot head and is still doing the same thing now that he was doing in high school so I'm not all that hopeful for any type of reunion. That's what we get for stuffing the ballent box.

[Paul M.]

Flava flav style.

I also wore a cape once or twice.

[BenitoCereno]

You guys who say Latin is useless are dumber than a sack of doorknobs.

[saTHOMASo]

HEY, YOU IGNORANTS! LATIN IS FUN:

Inter pedes puellarum fortuna poerorum est.

Pecunia non olet.

Ora et labora.



:D

[Chris Piers]

Benito alone appreciates the four years I spent on Latin and the subsequent years forgetting it. I do think it helped me formulate a way of thinking though. I tend to pay very close attention to my grammar, sentence structure and vocabulary which stems from my Latin studies.

[Carter]

I can't remember the wierdest kid (I hope that doesn't mean it's me) but I do remember the wierdest teacher. Colonel Booger AKA Boogermeyer. Draw your own conclusions.

--Carter--

[kelpo]

The wierdest kid in my school is Dimitrious Anagnastopolous.
He's a greek kid and quite possibly a crack baby.
He watches too many films so basically his everyday talk is just film quotes.
He carries around a black briefcase, he wears a black cowboy hat (i live in chicago) and black sunglasses sometimes. The rest of his clothes are normal.

And he voice is really gooey and high pitched, i think he has a very bad speach impediment.

In my sophomore year he ate a whole Habanero pepper because we dared him too. He almost had to go to the hospital. When he came back into the room he was like, "What a vile taste!"

:p

oh man, i LOVE this

i wasn't a complete loser in school, i had tons of friends and whatnot, but i was mainly part of the "smart crowd" so that didn't gel with the "cool kids" (i didn't get picked on *a lot,* but i'm sure most people here know how they treat you differently...the best part was that the only time one of them actually got physical with me, it happened to be this kid who was like a foot shorter...i don't know what he was thinking, but he was pretty surprised when i shoved him between some vending machines heh)

anyways, i just wanted to comment on what inkthinker was saying...isn't it great how the geeks and losers of highschool are the ones who go on to uni, have a blast, and (hopefully) find careers and their mates...meanwhile, the guys who were on the sports teams have nothing to fall back on and end up working at chevron or burger king (granted, the world needs these employees, but the fact that they were working there in high school and haven't moved on is a bit concerning) and the chicks who were too stuck up to give you the time of day are now fat, single mothers

ah, if only kids knew that things change big time after graduation...

anyways, strangest kid? that would be my buddy joel (or as he decided to call himself "jole")...he was practically albino, he'd wear strange suits he bought from value village and he made his wallet out of duct tape and a pocket watch out of a broken regular watch, shoe lace and rubber band (he'd often kick it to see if he could get it to land in his shirt pocket heh)...what a guy :)

[Jon]

wiredest kid at my school is a guy named alan cock. when the bell for luch rings he runs to the cafeteria. in class when he doesnt know the answer to something he bangs his fists on his desk or pulls at hir hair.
also theres this guy named chucky riggs. he used to be really skinny and the guy that everyone picked on but over the summer he gained a lot of wait so now hes chubby. hes kind of slow, but hes really funny and he makes up raps, or "flows" as he likes to call them, and he calls himself G.I. Flow. and he makes drawings of people he doesnt like, getting run over and stuff.

[kuje]

The wierdest kid in my school... Ryan Grimm. I'd say he was an albino if he didn't have the snazziest red hair, and he walks around faking some new injury every day. I was in his gym class last year, and he'd always wear tight, tight 70s-esque basketball shorts and a stained t-shirt. He randomly gets hyper and wanders around during class, too. The kid's a genius, though, and gets a 100 on every bio test without taking notes, doing homework, or coming to class half the time.

And he smells like pee.

Ahh, the people who peaked in high school... EAT MY DUST, YOU BASTARDS!!!

BWA-HA-HA-HAAAA!!! :D


Not everyone I know who was popular in high school ended up as a loser, but it is funny (and sad) to see the ones who peaked live their lives in boring jobs, living boring lives... me, I'm going on a cruise this weekend.

NYAH-NYAAAAH!!!

[Ed]

im not the weirdest but i am in the group of the weird.
-my one friend wears a cloak

-my other comes up with weird/funny crap all the time. he sacres this one kid in my math class all the time, my fav was he acted like his hand was a spider and then slayed it with a pencil. then presented it to the kid as a war present. one time he pretended to snaphis neack and then lay with his hea on his desk in the same position the same position the entire hour. hes funny

there are others but im too lazy to continue...

oh, theres one last guy. besides being a huge racist (he wants every ethnicity to have their on country) he never showers or changes his cloths. all he does all day is play tennis and play videogames. his schedual is play games from 3-10 o clock then sleep and get up at 4am do hw, play untill 7:00, go to school.

[GroundHog]

I can't remember. I was friends with most of the non-conformist types. We went through so many phases that I can't remember who took it the farthest or where.

There was one fellow who came to school dressed like Marilyn Manson but he got expelled before the year was over. He used to be a class clown, but then went grunge, then goth, then wherever, I didn't know him very well.

The non-conformists I hung out with were more Phish/Dead Kennedys/ Sonic Youth types. This dude I was really close friends with was pretty much a certified musical genius. One Of my good buddies' brothers. Anyway, he was a polish german dude with a naturally extremely nappy afro like Bob Ross, and he was a diabetic who drank like a fish. He grew his Afro Humongous. We laughed. He seemed to not care for an ego inside the machine. I must say he was a wierdo, but too smart and talented to be criticized at all.

Then there was this one dude who used to take LSD all the time.

This was before the time of the "Juggalos" populated the outcast crowd in sub/urban schools these days(at least the ones I see at the library)

I'm sure the wierdest kid in our school was probably too quiet to be known. Oh yeah, there was this dude named "Noah" who most thought was pretty wierd, but I didn't see it, people just ****ed with him and he reacted accordingly. I thought he was cool because I communicated with him, the ones who didn't know him were the ones who talked shit, and that grew to be a big number.

I was not considered wierd as far as I know. Most people knew I knew art, and thats about it, detached from the rest.

[Akira X]

My first high school was so small that there weren't enough people in one group to qualify as a clique so everyone got along with each other. so there weren't any really weird kids who didn't fit in, just funny kids.
Here are some pictures I found of that high school (Vicenza American High School) taken in the fifties(!).
http://www2.whidbey.com/gerber3/Italy/VHS1.jpg
http://www2.whidbey.com/gerber3/Italy/VHS2.jpg
That bubble on the top is the roof of the gymnasium, everything to the left of that is actually the elementary school. the rest of the highschool extended backwards. Man, i liked that place.

Anyways, act my new school there were a bunch of groups, but there were usually so many misfits that they all fit into their own groups. no one was really brave enough to do something that was so wierd that it would stand out from their groups everyday weirdness (ie, the group of weird kids were moderately weird). So i guess that would make me the wierd kid. i hadn't been there long enough to care what anyone thought of me, so i just did whatever i thought was cool. so from their point of view of living in a soul-smothering community of conformist monotony, i guess that is weird.

oh yeah, and probably because of the day i went to school dressed like this

[danimation2001]

For me, I was the weird one and I did it on purpose so no one would bug me.

Basically I got A's so I didn't get any shit from the teachers.

But to get everyone to not bother me, I acted like I was crazy. Doing and saying things that no one would have the balls to do or say.

Ex:

One day in class This dipshit was through paper at me behind my back. You know stupid shit like that. I got totally pissed off at him and the teacher for not noticing, so I raised my hand calling the teacher over and when she walked over to my desk, I said, "Excuse me but...SOME COCK SUCKING MOTHER ****ER IS THROWING PAPER AT ME!!!!"

I said it very loudly... the whole room was still with me pointing my finger at that dipshit.

I got away with a lot of shit like that. They didn't do anything.

[danimation2001]

oh and akiraX... um that'll do it. :D

yeah i know, i can't believe i actually wore those sandals!

[DEVin]

Interesting topic.

I have no idea where I'd be qualified for anything. Most people think I'm "the quiet kid", which I rarely am anymore. Now I'm just the loud spontaneous, witty kid who has no dignity.

I'm the coolest at my school, in my opinion. I don't even hang out in cliques. I DO, just not one. I hang out with kids I like from the "in-crowd", and just any other groups. Mainly 3. The "in-crowd", another one, and one that's just me, a filipina girl, her friend kyndal and friend Emily. Just us four, only because they're rad.

But my main substantial group is basically nerds. Most of the kids are pretty cool. If i had to choose one I could save and the rest had to die, it'd be my friend Sam. If anyone of you have seen that music video, "United States of Whatever" by Liam Lynch, that's exactly how he sounds, and acts.

Lots of kids at my school are total nerds and just weird in general. Like this kid Logan Washington. Wow. He's tiny, has a little black mullet thing, and looks exactly like a pre-pubescent Harry Potter. And he's weird as hell. He sits in front of me in Math, and i'll like put my feet on the back of the legs of his chair, gently and he turns around "Stop kicking my seat!". I couldn't help but do it again, being the dick I am. "STOP IT!!!" I did it so gently too! Whateva'! And when I was in 6th grade, it was DOUG FERRER. Nickname was raindance boy. Total nerd, got picked on, etc. And I feel bad for saying it, but he deserved it. He did this dance and thus he was dubbed raindance boy. Anyway, one time he thought it would be funny to throw a medicine ball at me and run.

at the time i didn't do anything. If it was now, he'd be on the ground crying.

[chachi]

We had this one guy who would wear his back pack with both straps on ( take into concideration that this was '89-'93 when people normaly used only one strap) and wait by the door for the bell to ring. When it rang he would go into a full on sprint to his next class. People use to hold onto his backpack so that he couldn't take off. Funny stuff at the time.

Omigod!! And you guys let that son of a bitch keep breathing? WTF!!! What a goddamn weirdo!! Both friggin' straps?!!

[viper13]

We had a kid that wore high waters on purpose, glasses with thick black frames, and weighed maybe fifty pounds soaking wet. He would read dictionaries and encyclopedias during his free time in class. And after all he went through to look intelligent, the kid had pretty sorry grades most of the time. Go figure.

And I'm proud to say I wasnt popular in High School but the friends I did have were really good friends. Hell I even married one of em, huh Jenn?

[Y2Jenn]

...
For a minute there I thought you were callin me one of the wierdos. Lucky for you I realized my error. ;)

Yeah, I remember this one guy who for some reason chose to wear these HUGE glasses and had fluffy hair all through seventh grade.....

sonuva... you're just not WIERD Bryce! GAH! *pouts*




I just had two cadbury eggs. i'm not feeling well. Ack.

[MrDowntown]

Some dude in my art class looked just like PJ from Goof troop, so he became PJ, I dont even remember his real name, but one day we were working with clay in art and we all chipped in for him to snort some clay. We took a chunk and bashed it up a bit, and he shot a serious amount of clay up his nose and fell outta the seat , that guy was messed up but hilarious.

A fresh-out-of-the-oven mother ought not to be eating those aborted easter bunnies, ma'am.

[Jedmo9000]

Man my graduating class had about 800 people in it so I cant remember too many of the weird kids from high school, hell I cant even remember most of the normal kids (keep in mind I graduated last year). The drama dept. seemed to have its fair share or weirdos though. I do remember this kid in elementary school named Sam. This kid would like wear these homemade sweatshirts that were painted to look like garfield or something and they had like bells and sh*t on them, he was a pretty weird kid. I met his mom once and she had a rat-tail down to her waist, it was freaky. I guess it kind of ran in the family or something.

[ManinMotion]

Kids use to make fun of my name a lot...so I guess the weirdest kid was me. I was picked on in the morning, at recess, during lunch, during second recess and usually they do it after school as well though some of them had baseball practice and things like that so I was able to get away from time to time.

The same thing happened during high school considering that it was beside my elementary school and half of my grade went to the same school.

I was always pissed that they chose to make fun of my name and nothing else. I felt that if you're going to make fun of someone try to be witty about it. Ah well. It still hurts.

[saint manji]

i was the weirdest in my class. I went to highschool in the super ghetto so the cool kids were gangsters and drug dealers. I was one of the few kids with a full set of hair and my pants werent over sized. They would wonder why i bought comics in stead of pot and all that noise.
The only bad thing is that i had the ugly nerdy girls like me. I wish the nerdy girls could look like the ones on tv, with skimpy outfits and big boobs instead of all fat and smelly... girls arent supposed to be smelly dammit. My best friend was the only black guy in that school who didnt like rap. So nunna the popular kids liked us and we used to get in a lot of street fights with them.

Now the gangsters all got to take care of their 7 kids with their chola wifes. Y'know, the bangs, crispy hair and sweatpants.

[GroundHog]

Stereotyping is bad.
Y2jenn is a wierdo.

"I was like 6, I used to get dissed by the chicks.
And everyone would chase me and hit me with bricks,
and rocks and sticks and callin' me names.
And filled my lunch box with frog brains.
Uhh.
When I left school it was much iller.
My daddy was a serial killer,
and how about that,
he always made me sit in the back,
with all his dead bodies in my lap.
Move. "
-ICP is funny.

there was once we had to watch a movie in class, and this dude was asleep.
Well, he started to snore REALLY loud so people started looking at him and staring and such. In the midst of the latest, loudest snore I crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it at him. A few people laughed, and a few got pissed(like him), I mean we didn't want to hear him snore, I'm sure he didn't want to be the ass of attention here, but y'know, it was 8 a.m. and sleeping is a sacred thing at that time of day, so some of us tried to have sympathy. Of course the teacher got pissed off AT ME. **** mornings in class.

and If I Recall Correctly, the dude I mentioned "Noah" wasn't really necessarily wierd, but people thought he was.

He was the one and only person I've ever seen fall asleep in Gym Class. I was actually kinda envious there.
:)

[razz007]

well my invisible two-headed friend was always the center of conversational topics.....

[Y2Jenn]

I'm a wierdo?! HEY!

...waidaminit, aborted easter bunnies?! GOOD GOD!!! :eek:
