So I'm at Mothers Day dinner with my family and I'm talking about our school (Don't ask me I don't know how) And I say something about preppy people and everyone is like "DON'T JUDGE PEOPLE!!" and I'm like "YOU DON'T KNOW THEM" and they're like "NEITHER DO U!!" And them I'm trying to explain and it's all frustrating. Sorry chatting on GYC brb.
I really don't care for super crowded rooms, and as it gets later the rooms are packed. So I'm back to typing for my blog. I mean, I met some rather nice guys, but it just gets so crowded.
Anyway, I was talking to my family about how I tend to classify people. Preppy, jocks, jerks, nerd, emo/goth, u know. And they start yelling at me. What I wish they would understand is that I'm not saying they are the stereotype, but that they fall in the general category. Like animals. Preppiticus Americus was my example. Not all cats live in the jungle and roar, or all gorillas bang on their chests and rip off human limbs. They just are under the umbrella, more closely related to each other than to fish. Like how preppy people are more alike than they are to the nerds. My dealings with various specimens let me cobble together an image, and each new sample I collect is compared and then placed in it's own category.
Like there are super jock preps, shopaholic preps, nerdy preps, bitchy preps, and nice but still preppy preps. Just like different species, they all are in the same family. There are stoners, failouts, skater, hardcore, music junkies, that all fit under Goth/Emo. Most of my friends are nerds, similar to nerdy preps, but both are more closely related to others of their own family to each other. Some species tend to be more hos til than others. The preppy family as a whole is more aggressive, as are hardcore goth/emos.
I wish that people would understand this, rather than judging me. They're yelling at me because I analyze the system, while placing me under the label "Judgemental". Excuse me, but have you realized what you're doing? By not listening to me, you yourself are becoming the very thing that u are accusing me of being. You think I don't take the time to get to know people? Because I don't walk up to strangers and say "Hi I'm about to make an image of you to carry with me for years, what would you like me to think" but instead observe and draw my own conclusions from years experience?
Years upon years of being called "lesbo, dyke, fat, stupid, ugly, bitch, slut, ho, whore, cunt, fag, homo, queer, 'big man', liar", being kicked, hit, slapped, punched, taunted, chased, humiliated while teachers stand by, watching. Years and years of meeting my best friends, who keep me through all of this when there were times when I just wanted to wrap a belt around my throat or chug a bottle of Ibprofen. Years of torture that still go on to this very day. And you say I'm the bad person to tell you what I think of people?
P.S. I love Basshunter
