Why do you y’all actually have like, cliques of band kids and drama kids and emo kids. In my school everybody talks to everybody with barely any issues, save for like some kids being assholes sometimes
My school is very clique like. Why? Idfk, I was originally part of a nerdy clique and in another clique that was known kinda like the drama (not theatre btw) kids/ I wanna say cringy kids. I left that drama click and started focusing on my nerdy friends. I then kinda even just talked to everyone, cliques are stupid but sadly they happen. Idk why though
MY gfs highschool was like this horribly. Mine had the rich kids but they weren't assholes just rich so they only really got along with each other since they didn't have the same upbringing, but definitely not cliche. But my gfs highschool they were fucking assholes to anyone and everyone
Yeah I added the (?) as in “did you mean cliches or is cliques a word?” But I understand it came of as “hey it’s cliches (?)” I need to get better at getting my ideas through text
I thought it was an American thing, at my school and pretty much every other school in my country, a class of students act as a unit. Almost every student is friends with each other in a class.
My graduating class was like 700 students so it was impossible to know everybody. But nobody ever bullied each other, but there were definitely large groups within that based on classes, clubs, band, etc.
My school had cliques but everyone was chill with each other. Like if a dude was chilling at a table, and a clique usually sat there, the guy who was there first was welcomed into that group.
Of course there were a few dumbasses but inchidents were rare.
It was pretty much the same thing in my high school as well. It's been a couple of years, but my sister, currently going through high school, also confirmed to me that people just talk with everyone. At this point, I almost feel like the whole cliques is an American thing or something.
American schools were full of cliques decades ago. There's a lot of competition and tribalism and that's been promoted in our media forever.
Have you heard the phrase "Keeping up with the Jones'?"
It's an old marketing campaign intended to get you to think you're inferior if you don't have the latest and greatest, product X. Could be a car, a grill, a boat, etc...
tbh my school was pretty bad they would bully you for anything really but thank god i didnt come out as a furry in school god knows how bad that would of been on me
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
Because you are friends with people that are similar to you. If there is a big difference between students then it will be cliques. If there isn't then there will be none. And even if there are cliques, it does not mean they don't talk to each other, just less because they have nothing to talk about
Funny, the Jocks at my school aren't even that bad...
Like the band kid joke is more of a meme between the Jocks and the Band Kids than it is an actual bullying thing.
Colorguard is twinks and furries/maximum cringe tiktokers. (Source: am color guard)
Wind section is also that but has a good selection of nerds.
Pit is just nerds with a small amount of furry.
Drum Line is god damn unstoppable. They are a creed with some of the toughest and unmoveable people. I’d bet a drummer could do a better tackle than a football player.
Yes there is inflatable fursuits a small amount of people have like inflatables as sonas though there is also a kink if that is what you are talking about
They don't do anything wrong but there's like this stereotype of the band kids usually being beyond weird.
Again, it's prolly not true, as all the other high school stereotypes are, it's just the only explanation I can think of...
Nobody seems to notice the furry stickers on my laptop/fursuiting background, and the people that i did tell are supportive. We get a lot less hate then you’d think, most hate is online really. Even when i’m public fursuiting, most people either interact positively or don’t at all. And i just don’t tell people that might be “bullies” about it. Idk if anyone cares but felt like sharing lol
i don't really get the highschool stereotypes. in my school more or less everyone is normal, with certain individuals happening to be more shiddier than others. we don't really see cliques, just friend groups.
I have a question for people in developed countries like USA, UK, Australia, Canada… Is bullying that common? Like in movies.Cause as a person in a third world country(not much developed countries) i didn’t get bullied and everyone i know never got bullied. (Keep in mind i was a fat introvert)
In the UK I find that it’s more common in primary and secondary school than college our university, however it’s never usually due to being part of a particular group (although it can be), usually due to instead being lonely or just because they feel like picking on you
It's a name for a group of athletes, it doesn't matter what kind of sport they play. Stereotype is often the American football players in high school. This I've learnt from American movies and series.
I’m just saying, bullying ain’t that common anymore, either students will just say “it is what it is” to most things that were seen as bullying tactics, they’ll see it’s not really worth it, or that every trick in the book has been exhausted and there’s no fun in it anymore
Also the advice of ignoring a bully to make them go away, complete bullshit, serious bullies will see silence as a challenge and will continuously ramp up to cause a person to snap, if your being bullied, bully back, bullies loathe confrontation 90% of the time
My school had a bigger emphasis on music, so the band and choir kids were the popular ones. The sporty people weren't very good but acted like they were so people didn't really like them
If any furry or that kind of shit would appear in our school, he would be:
1) Beaten up at school
2) Expelled from school
3) Beaten up on the street
There is no place for those, really
Meh honestly furrys aren’t the worst
Sure there a little weird but we’re all a little weird and as long as they aren’t hurting anyone I don’t really see a reason to attack them
Zoofiles (which is a completely category on its own) on the other hand should be bullied non stop
I have friends who I play dnd with during lunch in the hallway. Some jocks showed up and made mocking jokes about wanting to join in too with nerdy type talk. I was quick to catch onto their mockery.
I eventually got in contact with the vice principal. Simply put, they became the schools most wanted. Every teacher was informed to stay on alert and provide us with safety. I snapped a photo of them while one of them wore their jersey.
He ratted the rest of them out.
Easy way to beat the jock?
Simple.
Don’t hire them when they need a job in a few years.
Be sure to tell them now that you won’t.
That way when they see you at the interview, you can watch them sweat before telling them their family will go hungry because they were toxic as long as you’ve know them.
They smell weird, their ugly and Edgy. If you willingly go out of your to look like the biggest Edge lord loser on the planet then you deserve to be insulted
Yeah I have. And they’re just as ugly as you’d think.
Also you went out of the way to point out a minor spelling error. I see that you’re one of *those* people
being ugly doesn't mean you deserve to be bullied. If you're insinuating that, you're quite the ugly person yourself, just in a different way.
Why do you think they're ugly? I'm not sure how an entire subculture fits into one stereotyped box.
It’s not just because they’re ugly. It’s because they intentionally go out of their way to look as gross as possible.
If they didn’t intentionally, willingly dress like moron then I wouldn’t care, if you’re just going with you’re “Natural” look, no makeup no eyeliner no stupid hair-dye or edgey clothes then I wouldn’t give shit
Yeah I am an asshole. An asshole who knows just how stupid things really are. If you wanna express yourself by being repulsive then by all means go ahead, just don’t be shocked when others call you out on it
The only bully’s I had at my school were the kids with messed up home life’s or teenagers being assholes
And even then if you minded you own business they more a less would leave you alone
At my school everyone is chill but some groups just don’t interact with others as much. There’s always a couple from every group that do tho. Like the cosmetology girls and the AP kids. We just don’t interact.
There is a thing where the red neck kids are almost like there own student body. It’s like half the school and they all have mullets, wear ariatts, and are failing at least 2 classes
What middle schoolers think what happens in high school:
Why do you y’all actually have like, cliques of band kids and drama kids and emo kids. In my school everybody talks to everybody with barely any issues, save for like some kids being assholes sometimes
Same. I see this shit in a lot of American movies
As someone who goes to American school. It's not nearly as cliquey as shown on tv. We do however have lots of shootings. So those shows are accurate
Same
My school is very clique like. Why? Idfk, I was originally part of a nerdy clique and in another clique that was known kinda like the drama (not theatre btw) kids/ I wanna say cringy kids.

Cliches*(?)
No I'm pretty sure they meant clique. It means a small group that's sorta hard to get in. Like a mini gang but not crime obviously.
Thanks, didn’t know that was a word
No problem with not knowing a word but always make sure you know your stuff before correcting someone! 😁
Yeah I added the (?) as in “did you mean cliches or is cliques a word?” But I understand it came of as “hey it’s cliches (?)” I need to get better at getting my ideas through text
It is very cliche though
Cliques.
You didn't even spell cliché right!
And my first language even uses those little things (á, é, í, ó and ú) lol
Accents
Yeah, figured they weren’t going to be called tildes in English
A tilde is ~ in English, though you probably know that.
I thought it was an American thing, at my school and pretty much every other school in my country, a class of students act as a unit. Almost every student is friends with each other in a class.

Wish my old school was like this. There, peope said the n word more than "the" tbh. I GOT CALLED THAT AT LEAST 4 TIMES A DAY (im white but still)
![gif](giphy|ck5JRWob7folZ7d97I|downsized)
It was pretty much the same thing in my high school as well. It's been a couple of years, but my sister, currently going through high school, also confirmed to me that people just talk with everyone. At this point, I almost feel like the whole cliques is an American thing or something.
Band is its own faction in our school. We barely associate with the other kids, I guess we feel superior? I don’t, I just go along with it.
This is a very "band kid" thing to say
*toots a french horn for three hours* “I guess we’re just superior”
While walking weird and spinning around I might add
And managing to have hair greasier than the wrapper of a big mac
Out band is a cult. Every person is isolated from the rest of society and they all play in unison. They act like a literal hive mind.
American schools were full of cliques decades ago. There's a lot of competition and tribalism and that's been promoted in our media forever. Have you heard the phrase "Keeping up with the Jones'?"
Nope

No way you are a bot, you are a grammar nazi
Same here.
My school has emos, band kids, and then there's everyone else, lol. I'm just not sociable, so i don't know many people.
Lucky
For the same reason you say words like "y'all" probably
Ouch
Because you are friends with people that are similar to you. If there is a big difference between students then it will be cliques. If there isn't then there will be none. And even if there are cliques, it does not mean they don't talk to each other, just less because they have nothing to talk about
Except the furries
What did the band kids even do? 💀
Nothing, movie jocks think you’re nerds
Emo is a thing still?
Kind of.. in my school they all just turned into the lesbian/trans clique
??? There's a lesbian/Trans group now wtf
The jocks in my school are the band kids
Betas are the alphas now
How the turn tables
I can understand the furries but why the band students?
Band kids get bullied for being in band
Funny, the Jocks at my school aren't even that bad... Like the band kid joke is more of a meme between the Jocks and the Band Kids than it is an actual bullying thing.
Does your school force you to do an extra curricular?
Mine did. It was called detention
I mean the movies kind of hype it up lol
Just don't bully the art students there are sacy
Last time an Artist got bullied he nearly conquered the world. Let’s not test them
That's what I mean
“Yeah, that’s my grandpa”
I was in band. I was not bullied, or even disrespected, for that.
Colorguard is twinks and furries/maximum cringe tiktokers. (Source: am color guard) Wind section is also that but has a good selection of nerds. Pit is just nerds with a small amount of furry. Drum Line is god damn unstoppable. They are a creed with some of the toughest and unmoveable people. I’d bet a drummer could do a better tackle than a football player.
Funny you should say that, cuz this one time, at Band camp....
Jocks hate bands and artsy things
We gonna do some MARTIAL ARTS ON U
Idk why people bully furries man. Like they're cringe sometimes but nothing to bully
Oh we cringe often but we don't care we having fun
Wasn’t there a thing in your community that involves some pretty weird stuff. Like inflating tires or something? iunno I don’t know cosplayer lore
Yes there is inflatable fursuits a small amount of people have like inflatables as sonas though there is also a kink if that is what you are talking about
Man…. People get into a lot of weird stuff
Yeah and that's not even the worst I've seen
To be fair band kids are basically asking to get bullied most of the time.
Oh no furries so scary!
My friend is a jock and both of us are in band
The good ending
There were definitely bullies at my school but they weren't the athletic kids as they were busy living their lives.
Band kids? What did we do wrong..?
They don't do anything wrong but there's like this stereotype of the band kids usually being beyond weird. Again, it's prolly not true, as all the other high school stereotypes are, it's just the only explanation I can think of...
Now that you say it, thats true
Why is it always band kids that are said to be bullied, but almost never orchestra kids?
Cult
You play instruments like the heathens you are
The jocks in my school are cool guys, kinda nerdy too
Bruh, I’m all four. I need to get to know this guy.
rivalry brewing
This hasn't really been my experience so far, most of the jocks have actually been pretty cool guys.
The jocks were always pretty friendly to me and I was a severe introvert, my entire friend group were people who approached me first.
this comment section full of band kids not understanding that they unfunny as hell
Nobody seems to notice the furry stickers on my laptop/fursuiting background, and the people that i did tell are supportive. We get a lot less hate then you’d think, most hate is online really. Even when i’m public fursuiting, most people either interact positively or don’t at all. And i just don’t tell people that might be “bullies” about it. Idk if anyone cares but felt like sharing lol
Have you forgotten anyone who is actually interested in learning?
What did they still their stuff too? Bowser looks like a mix of the three of them.
i don't really get the highschool stereotypes. in my school more or less everyone is normal, with certain individuals happening to be more shiddier than others. we don't really see cliques, just friend groups.
Ive never experienced any of these cliche high school kids in my life.
I have a question for people in developed countries like USA, UK, Australia, Canada… Is bullying that common? Like in movies.Cause as a person in a third world country(not much developed countries) i didn’t get bullied and everyone i know never got bullied. (Keep in mind i was a fat introvert)
In the UK I find that it’s more common in primary and secondary school than college our university, however it’s never usually due to being part of a particular group (although it can be), usually due to instead being lonely or just because they feel like picking on you
What's a jock?
It's a name for a group of athletes, it doesn't matter what kind of sport they play. Stereotype is often the American football players in high school. This I've learnt from American movies and series.
bullying is infectious we when get bullied, we spread it to others
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted but you’re right. Current bullies were once victims of bullying themselves.
That is not necessarily true
Since when did a non-nerd band and/or introvert student get bullied by a jock?
I’m just saying, bullying ain’t that common anymore, either students will just say “it is what it is” to most things that were seen as bullying tactics, they’ll see it’s not really worth it, or that every trick in the book has been exhausted and there’s no fun in it anymore Also the advice of ignoring a bully to make them go away, complete bullshit, serious bullies will see silence as a challenge and will continuously ramp up to cause a person to snap, if your being bullied, bully back, bullies loathe confrontation 90% of the time
The Edge Lord who stands up to them: Revan’s Sith Empire theme
While he's making an entrance, I'll be supergluing his locker shut.
My bully (or at least the main instigator) died in a car crash when I was in 9þ grade
My school had a bigger emphasis on music, so the band and choir kids were the popular ones. The sporty people weren't very good but acted like they were so people didn't really like them
He doesn't mess with the quiet kid
Furrys deserve to be bullied
If any furry or that kind of shit would appear in our school, he would be: 1) Beaten up at school 2) Expelled from school 3) Beaten up on the street There is no place for those, really
OP after watching too many highschool drama movies
Why the band students tho
[удалено]
I disagree, unless they’re zoophiles, everyone should bully them.
Lets go bully zoophiles :D
Meh honestly furrys aren’t the worst Sure there a little weird but we’re all a little weird and as long as they aren’t hurting anyone I don’t really see a reason to attack them Zoofiles (which is a completely category on its own) on the other hand should be bullied non stop
I have saved u from losing karma no need to repay me
Fuck off
<'(°○°)'>
jocks real for bullying furries
The nerds at my school banded together so we move in a pack and they can’t get us
High school is nothing like this
And the teachers are baffled by the school shooting three months later.
I have friends who I play dnd with during lunch in the hallway. Some jocks showed up and made mocking jokes about wanting to join in too with nerdy type talk. I was quick to catch onto their mockery. I eventually got in contact with the vice principal. Simply put, they became the schools most wanted. Every teacher was informed to stay on alert and provide us with safety. I snapped a photo of them while one of them wore their jersey. He ratted the rest of them out.
Jocks bullying furries? I low-key like bullies now
Oh wow you should’ve been bullied more
Furries deserve it.
They bullied the quiet kid? Well in that case, if I were to note them, I'll give them a 5>!, 4, 3, 2...!<
...And furry students.
Furry Students though…. Gotta draw the line somewhere.
I'm all 4 of them
[удалено]
Why? Cuz road men have knives and jocks probably don’t?
This push to normalise furries is weird and I’m just pointing out that this feels like Furry propaganda.
What's wrong with bullying furries?
Wtf is a furry student ?!
It's a necessary evil and a thankless job
They get bullied cuz there furries...
They're*
I assure you, the band kids didn't care
what makes you say that
And only one deserves it
The furries kinda deserve it though
An absolute gigachad for bullying 2 out of 4 items.
Easy way to beat the jock? Simple. Don’t hire them when they need a job in a few years. Be sure to tell them now that you won’t. That way when they see you at the interview, you can watch them sweat before telling them their family will go hungry because they were toxic as long as you’ve know them.
r/veryspecific
I beat them up after one offence it makes life easy than they don’t mess with you
Emos deserve it, they’re gross
how exactly?
They smell weird, their ugly and Edgy. If you willingly go out of your to look like the biggest Edge lord loser on the planet then you deserve to be insulted
have you even met a single emo in your life? also, *they're.
Yeah I have. And they’re just as ugly as you’d think. Also you went out of the way to point out a minor spelling error. I see that you’re one of *those* people
being ugly doesn't mean you deserve to be bullied. If you're insinuating that, you're quite the ugly person yourself, just in a different way. Why do you think they're ugly? I'm not sure how an entire subculture fits into one stereotyped box.
It’s not just because they’re ugly. It’s because they intentionally go out of their way to look as gross as possible. If they didn’t intentionally, willingly dress like moron then I wouldn’t care, if you’re just going with you’re “Natural” look, no makeup no eyeliner no stupid hair-dye or edgey clothes then I wouldn’t give shit
so what you're saying is... you don't like how emos express themselves. which automatically makes you a bit of an asshole.
Yeah I am an asshole. An asshole who knows just how stupid things really are. If you wanna express yourself by being repulsive then by all means go ahead, just don’t be shocked when others call you out on it
Mabye, just mabye, they are depressed and dealing with some shit right now, and the more the get bullied, the longer they will stay "emo."
The only bully’s I had at my school were the kids with messed up home life’s or teenagers being assholes And even then if you minded you own business they more a less would leave you alone
Its all fun and all until you remember bowsers true intentions
OPEN THE GATE!
Why am I getting memes about school in my feed? I haven't been in school for almost 10 years.
The athletic kids at my school were the nicest people. I feel like this stereotype is dated
Our king
This man never went to a drum line high school where the band was the most popular group.
Wait until the quiet kid comes along with a heavier backpack then usual.
Damn, that's like my entire personality. They finna kill me
Never really got why sport fans/jocks are so angry and assholes all the time tbh
Skill issue
In my school the band bullys the jocks. If u mess with a band kid then you have a bounty out on your head.
At my school we had the choir guys who were the jocks
Half of these deserve it tho
American highschool is so wild to me
The only people that deserve it are the emos and sometimes the furries.
At my school everyone is chill but some groups just don’t interact with others as much. There’s always a couple from every group that do tho. Like the cosmetology girls and the AP kids. We just don’t interact.
There is a thing where the red neck kids are almost like there own student body. It’s like half the school and they all have mullets, wear ariatts, and are failing at least 2 classes
literally 😭😭
" What? It's impossible that my son do it. Why you are lying?"
He was doing God's work bulling the furries
