I had a nickname that was 'Old Dame' or 'Old Man Damien' back in highschool because I'm a bit of an old grump sometimes.
@Allelse I'm sure you weren't that bad at all. Did you just take it in stride though?

@sensualbeauty1 Hahaha! Yeah I didn't mind, and I was abit of a grump sometimes. Especially in the afternoon! I'm a morning person but I get tired and grouchy in the afternoon.
@Allelse LOL Well we all have our moments. We had a history teacher everybody hated and most people called him "The old bastard." I'm sure he was aware of it. 😊

@sensualbeauty1 Also my kingdom!! I left it open to anyway after a pang of conscience at around age 15 - 16. so I had strange foreign kids, juniors and the general outcasts hanging about the place. And often I'd muck around with the juniors but the little fuckers would ware me out!! They were so energetic. We'd play a game where they'd thump me and I'd go chasing after them to thump them lightly back. I mean an hour or that and I was tired, grumpy and growling which they all thought was funny as fuck hahaha!
@Allelse High schools and colleges had such strange things happening, always little clicks, popular kids and those who were known as the rebels.

@sensualbeauty1 I dunno, the school I went to was rough as fuck and once I was big enough to scare most people away I wanted to make people feel safe. Haha! I mean we had our own little Korea town, where the 5 or 6 Korean kids in the school would hang out, draw and talk in Korean. And the one of them that did speak English would often chat away to me, and I'd nod my head and smile even though I could barley understand his thick accent. He was a good guy, he later went back to Korea and is now a cartoonist!
@Allelse That's pretty cool, good for him. Yeah I know, I'm not sure why but anyone who was different was ostracized or they hung out together. The foreign exchange students were always glamorized because they were so exotic.
Today it's different though because they're many ethnics and Caucasians are the minority especially in cities.

@sensualbeauty1 In my school they were picked on. Like the Korean kid got REALLY picked on by a Lebanese kid.
