A false dichotomy created by pop culture to divide teenagers into cliques.

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I mean I did plenty of both.

[-] MammyWhammy@lemmy.ml 32 points 1 year ago

And have felt super cool and like a total loser doing both.

Imagine not cracking a beer while playing Vidya Games.

Is this divisive jock/preppy/nerd/skater/gangsta shit still going on 23 years after I left high school? I thought y'all zoomers were better than that.

[-] bigmanjezza@lemmy.world 48 points 1 year ago

hello, I'm a 2020 hs graduate, I'm probably in the zoomer category. from my experience, this does not exist outside of movies.

[-] Mcballs1234@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Man what was 2020 graduation like?

[-] kluevo@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

fun /s

I mean, as a nerd with no interest in prom, it wasn't all bad. My hs has us still do graduation almost as normal (masks and spacing, ofc), with the only major difference being that it was split across multiple days so we could fit everyone on the front lawn.

The fact that they had to do the speeches six times was the only reason I was slightly glad to have missed out on being valedictorian/salutorian

[-] Mcballs1234@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Sounds like a pain in the ass

[-] bigmanjezza@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

pretty boring tbh. most of it was the same, just with masks on, and classes online. thankfully, mu part of australia was mostly unaffected by covid, so final WACE exams were basically the same. the big send off was already done before hand

[-] SternburgExport@feddit.de 37 points 1 year ago

Actually not. You can be a massive nerd these days and still go get fucked up and party.

[-] Aesthesiaphilia@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

There will always be popular extroverts and unpopular introverts.

I was actually both . I was in the robotics club and programming/ gaming on my free time. Then on the weekends I was out drinking and hanging with a completely different set of friends.

[-] nexguy@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

The double loser? Gaming and having friends must have been painful to live through.

[-] Fibby@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Gamers truly are the most oppressed ✊😪

In the 90s it wasn't a problem to do both, so I became a double loser.

[-] treadful@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago

I'm about to blaze up and jump into this Tarkov wipe with the boys. The fuck is this.

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Me, dropping into DMZ with a single plate carrier, a throwing knife, my vape, and a DREAM.

[-] GeekFTW@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

I was the Internet/Gamer kid raised by television who got drunk at 17 and fell off a roof. Why was I drunk on a roof? Fuckin' 2001.

Not sure which category I fall under.

Alcohol gives you cancer, gaming does not.

You haven't played LoL, have you?

If you’re not born rich, you’re a loser. There.

[-] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 6 points 1 year ago

Oh no, I was in the first group (for 3/4 of high school) and I definitely thought that I was a loser.

[-] Dirk@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I really don't care about party-goers.

[-] Anamana@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

How about internet party goers

[-] Engywuck@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

And how about lan-party goers?

[-] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Drunken LAN parties. Ahh, those were the days

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Spoiler alert...

They both suck

[-] bigmonkey@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I was both of these as a teen and basically still am. I'm also a confirmed loser so this meme checks out!

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Same except for the still am part.

[-] MasterNerd@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Bruh this meme is so stale could clobber someone to death with it

[-] gamarus@lemmy.cat 2 points 1 year ago

I'm part of the two, am I special? 🙊
