This troper was a MemeticSexGod...in middle school. Let that sink in.

That doesn't mean anything. Middle schoolers having sex is nothing new.

Though it can just be for laughs. I was known for a bit as "pimpin with the ladies" at that time even though nobody had ever saw me even hold hands with a girl.

Tropers/{{Excel-2010}}. I know more about working AV equipment than anyone at my high school and had they made a few calls, they could have avoided every delay they had caused by someone not knowing what cable goes where. But no one ever bothered asking, so while some of the faculty knew how good I was at that kind of thing, they had no proof to back those claims.

According to the girls at my school, I'm funny. This is hard to believe, seeing as whenever they talk to me I can barely muster the words "How's it going?". Hell, a girl I hadn't seen in ''two years'' assumed this when we met again this year. Then again,
maybe this is a good thing.

Or maybe you're a fountain of pure Narm. Don't worry, I'm one of those too.

If you're scared to talk to girls and they think you are funny....maybe that there is your answer?

Interesting case with two guys in this troper's social group. They are supposed to be the most insanely popular guys in our community (constantly getting dates, being talked about, throw the biggest parties). But actually talking around with people outside their closest circle, there are alot of people who don't actually like them. In fact, many find them annoying, arrogant jerks. I, personally, am friendly acquaintances with both and one of them, in particular, has always been incredibly nice to me (even volunteering to drive me to a city three hours away) but I have no desire to be "best friends" with either and their popularity confuses me.

People have this reaction when I inform them that I'm socially awkward. I have Asperger's Syndrome, but I mask it very well--the same way I mask everything about myself--so people are often shocked when I explain that I'm autistic and really don't like them touching me. Despite that I'm physical with my friends. I seem perfectly fine as far as friends and the like go, though this is a recent and very luck-based development.

I feel this way about my drawing ability, which for some reason, I take ''far'' more personally than my writing. No matter what anyone says about the things I draw, I know I'll always have shortcomings, so I err on the side of the negative just to be safe. It's rather depressing, but I'd rather not go through life lying to myself about it.

I have been told that booze tastes good, and that if it's mixed the right way, you won't taste it. So far, I've yet to see proof of this.

This Troper had an informed attribute of being AxCrazy in High School, to the point when I got fit enough to put up a fight, the bullies practically shit themselves and anticipated violent revenge. I am not actually that violent of a guy. I just used to be rather outspoken in what I'd like to do. It was just that what I would like to do is hurt them for hurting me, and the only thing keeping me back was that I was pretty weak in body at the time. I gave up on those silly grudges by the time I could fight back, ironically enough.

In a similar case, This Troper had a reputation for being a psycho with a hit list during high school. My raggedy Charles Manson hair probably didn't help. So many people were surprised that I'm more of the class clown aspiring to be an actor rather than a serial killer when they actually talk to me. The only time I ever hit somebody in school was when one of the 'gangstas' was acting like a misogynistic Jerkass, so I slugged him in the jaw. Other than that, nothing.
