Listen, just because I'm Canadian does not mean I have any ties to Nickelback thank you very much.

My graduating class was like 100 people. Grew up playing sports with the popular kids but I wouldn't say I was one. Most of my high school was pretty cool with a few standout *******s and nerds. I was also one of the biggest kids in my school and had a lot of older friends I partied with so even when I was in chess club no one messed with me.

School was really tough for me because of my mom, but it all changed when I started playing guitar at 14. Was a flat out school rock star by 16.

We don't really have this whole jock/nerd dichotomy here, although being good at sports, especially football, might help your popularity and provide you with a clique.
I'm good with people, although I like to keep some distance, so I'm usually relatively well-liked, but not friends with everyone in the room.

I was pretty popular in grades 1 to 4. After that there are three possible types of school you can go, depending on how stupid you are. 5th grade was okay, I had some friends, but didn't really feel like I belonged with all those new people.
Had to change schools once again after that. Since the cliques there had already formed, I once again didn't feel like I really belonged, although I still had a bunch of friends. Those were grades 6 to 8, maybe 9.
After that it got steadily better, the classes were shuffled a little and grades 10 to 13 were simply amazing. We were a tight-knit group, had tons of fun, pretty much everyone got along. Love reminiscing about that time, still friends with a lot of people from back then.

Cos it's fun. Nobody is forcing you to share. Anyway, was it a school of salmon that bullied you? You can tell us...

Yes but that's how it usually is in real life. Lines are drawn at school. You like this band, you're in this clique, you don't you're out. You like football, we like you. You don't then go over there. And so on.

Most of us enjoy glancing back at our pasts, and even WD, despite the protests couldn't resist doing it.
I think the pleasure is threefold:-
i) fond nostalgia for many of us
ii)"The child is father to the man" so it's intriguing to think about who we were, and how that led us to who we are
iii) imagining the MB adults as our class companions, running around the playground, as I once did, in baggy grey shorts is too amusing to resist !
Oh-oh! Paedo alert!

What do you mean, "when I was"???

You fail English? Unpossible!
Also, I love the bit when you say "I would go over his house". Are you really that tall that you can walk right over a building???
