still am in HS actually, I'm that guy who's smart but hates half his classes, has a group of popular friends and a group of nerdy friends, is a jock and likes to stick it to the man.
 
I hung out with the jocks, the stoners, the geeks and anyone else.

I never had a single crowd I stuck with.
 
I was popular in high school. Very ironically, I became hugely nerdy/geeky fall-off-the-face-of-the-planet when I went to college.

Interestingly, the opposite transformation happened to many people from my HS.

That's not ironic at all 😛
 
not the most popular but hung out everywhere with that 'in' group. some of my best friends though were nerds and still are to this day. i loved where i was in highschool. i knew a lot of people but wasn't too good to sit down at lunch or walk to class with anyone.

An attention whore.

Really? I'm anti-social. How odd is that? An anti-social attention whore...

most attention whores have social problems... that's why they crave the spotlight.
 
None of the above.

I went to school, then went to work, went home to have dinner and do homework then went to bed.

Nice to have been poor.
 
I was a loner in HS. I ate alone or with one other friend at lunch for all 4 years. I didn't comb my hair. I had a peach fuzz mustache for the first few years. My HS yearbook quote was about Windows and Linux.

It's kinda funny now. A lot of my current friends are from college, but we went to the same HS. Most of them were surprised when I told them we went to the same HS.
 
I'd say I was pretty popular. I come from a very small town though so it wasn't really hard to be fairly popular.

I was and still am pretty damn nerdy though.
 
I went to a bunch of...smaller schools so I ended up hanging out with the popular people. The only reason I even started hanging out with them at the time was because they all chewed.
 
The 25 or so people who hung out at the north end of the quadrangle had no real label that I'm aware of. This group consisted of a pretty interesting mix of characters that, if rated on some nebulous but generally accepted "coolness scale", would have found themselves somewhat below the preps. While not particularly gifted with money or physical beauty, this group maintained its relatively high social status by virtue of the sheer amicability and generally accepted intelligence of it's constituent members. Both of the co-salutatorians of my graduating class, a number of band members, and a smattering of our better athletes were in this group. There was more crossover between this group and all the other groups than there was in any other single group. This was the group that I found myself in most of the time.
 
Back in the dark ages when I was in high school there were freaks, jocks, and straights. I was neither jock nor straight.
 
i was truly the most slacker but i managed to graduate with 3.44gpa. also played basketball and golf.

i graduated with 100 other classmates. pretty small, eh?
 
My graduating class was 35 students, so there wasn't really a "popular" group. So even though I was a bit on the nerdy side, I was still friends with the hottest girls in my class.
