That Bieber cut was the broccoli top of its day.

As someone who lived through 2006, I can assure you I would have enjoyed being in this situation then just as much as I would now, possibly more.

Man this hits different when you know what Drake was going through at that time

They fear the pegging. Cowards

It's like that movie She's Out of My League where we're supposed to buy Krysten Ritter as the ugly friend.

Because girls have cooties. Didn't you know this???

I mean, looking at the guy here this tracks with what high school was like in my day. Preppies and Goths were sworn enemies.

reminds me when I was in fifth or six grade and two girls a grade or two older than me would constantly find me in the hallways between classes, corner me, and either start hitting on me, or say flirty shit about me to each other just loud enough for me to hear but quiet enough that it left me wondering if they were doing it intentionally.

I didn't like it and I wanted it to stop, but I remember feeling really conflicted about wanting to do anything about it because it was also kinda validating at the same time, and I was definitely a weird kid that needed validation at the time. Honestly can't remember too much more about it, genuinely not sure if I spoke up or not at this point.

But to this day if I hear some people speaking to each other in hushed tones and giggling and shit, it can still bring me back to that feeling of not being sure if some other people are talking about and laughing at me.

This was kind of me in early high school. There was this badass goth chick who, looking back, was very likely "flirting" with me quite a bit. Admittedly, I had my own absurd style that definitely had shades of goth too.

I recall she bit my arm so hard she drew blood... on more than one occasion. I absolutely had a thing for her so I didn't mind. She was a grade or two older and had a boyfriend who was either from another town, dropped out, or already graduated. I'd never met or seen him though. Me and her did hang out a few times in random secluded places after school or during down time but nothing romantic ever happened - just talking.

Looking back on it as a more mature adult, and vaguely recalling her stories, I am pretty sure she had a fucked up childhood and home life. I wouldn't be surprised if the boyfriend situation was more fucked up than I realized.

Shortly after graduating high school, I met some people who actually knew the guy (he had allegedly been their dealer a few years prior lol) and apparently I looked a lot like him, only I was a few inches taller and less skinny. The number of times I was mistaken for him was crazy. I guess she had a type? I hope she's doing ok.

NGL I've had to fight off some thirsty ladies before, it's disgusting when they just can't take a hint.

Which series was this? Asking for a friend.

What would I even SAY to goth baddies?

"Hey do you like tabletop? I do, I like playing Barbarians because it makes me feel strong"
