Were you "popular" in school? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

Not that it matters now, but I'm curious. I don't know if I was popular. I had a lot of friends in middle school and I would say I did in high school too, but a lot less people knew me as the middle school I went to was smaller.

No, never was. I'm glad I'm not.

And to hit it home how unpopular I was, when I got my senior yearbook, I was in a particular section of the book where they seemingly put the undesired students in. Like, every senior got pages where they got nice pictures, they got a quote and some bio of them. Where I was at, there was none of that, just a couple pages of pictures of students they don't care for, even though we all got the same piece of paper that asked us what we'd like to say. Didn't matter.

Funny how none of the people who ran that yearbook staff, went on to do bigger and greater things. I haven't heard of or read their names doing anything significant. Just goes to show people just have a lot of ego in schools.
