Yeah,i could have been a jock and be branded as a handicap or be a goth and be branded as a satanistic madman
Jocks being stupid is a stereotype, there a many smart jocks. Goths creep me out though, lol. If you would go to my school you would be made fun of for being stupid, not being a nerd, lucky me :D
You can make friends without branding yourself into a certain group. If you have any talents, show it off.
