So what'll keep you from talking to someone?
Appearance, class, smell, tastes, etc etc.
Me? I personally don't like associating with... the "in" crowd. The're all alcoholic potheads. MTV types that go to every dance and every football game. The big skater groups that always hung around in the quad at school.
Then we had these skinhead guys that looked ridiculous, but they turned out to be NOT racist.. What a story that was. Well, some of them weren't, some of them were. Stupid kids at school can't even get their racism right.
Then all the gangs pissed me off. The big Mexican type guys that would wear the big flannel jackets and look mad all the time. Same with the Asian crowd. There were all the Asians that hung out in their little cliques together, and wouldn't talk with anyone else, and thought their shit didn't stink.
Well if I think of anyone else I'll post again. There are lots of people I don't like talking to. Just not all of them come to mind at the moment.

my answer is pretty much the same as jay 02 waster. i have all kinds of friends and i like them for who they r not cuz they r preps , jocks, etc but for who they r on the inside. and i feel lucky to have them as friends
there were some ppl in the "clicks" that i didn't like but mainly it was cuz of how they treat others that weren't one of them

Most people will deny prejudices.
I won't talk to preps, wiggers or skaters.

Well...I guess I am one of those people that goes to every dance & every football game, a "prep" if you will. But my boyfriend is "goth" and some of my best friends are skaters and things like that. I wont hang out with people that are depressed all the time, or people that just have no respect or courtesy for other people. Pretty much, if someone is nice to me, Im nice back.

:cool:Pretty much the same for me I didn’t care at school and I don’t care now I’m older. I wait for them to open their mouth before I judge. Ignorant and offensive people piss me off a lot and manners are a big plus!
What is prep, can someone describe an typical prep for me?

typicall preps are usually cheerleaders and most ppl that play sports and r very popular. and sometimes they tend to kiss up to teachers or at least at my school they did. and they also r involved in lots of school activites like student council and prom comitee

Thanks bloodygirl02, would these be represented in a show like say "Popular" ... thats a really sad bit of tv!!!!
... people who think they are "CRAZY" and have a fake personality that they think is really funny and makes them the "life and soul of the party" ... I want to hurt them!

i try to give people a chance but when it comes to who ill actually go up and talkto myself...
i stay away from preps, nerds, and all the gangs. the worst would be the asian gangs since im asian and theyd think im one of them then theyd figure different. also black and mexican gangs scare me
also i tend to talk more to guys than girls. girls scare me. mainly becuase the majority are all like hung up on themself. lots of pictures and are always showing u pics they took in a booth, or pics of themself at home, or glamour shot wallet size that they try to give to you. im like ok why do i want that not to mention a LOT Of them basically should throw their cameras away.
oh bad hair, make up and clothes are also a big turn off. also bad hygiene
of course every so often a person of one of these groups will surprise me. but its hard being friends since they have their own click and just cuz i get along wih them doesnt mean i get along with the rest. i always end up having all kinds of friends, the prep, goth, indian, stinky, nerd, etc. but never really belonging in a group. im like a nomad

I'm prejudiced towards all kinds of people, I've found that the people I do like to hang out with just sort of gravitate towards me and I to them, it's kinda weird in a way.

I've found that my prejudices faded alot when i went to college, you meet people and become friends with people you never thought youd be friends with. Hicks, Rednecks, Stoners, Preps, Jocks, Asians, African Americans, everything and everyone i ended up talking to, and everyone was equally cool and receptive to me.
College is just so different from high school, its amazing....

Uhhh....ya racial differences are no reason to not talk to someone IMO. I think by not talking to people from different cultures, different races, and different backgrounds, you shield yourself from different, and often opposing, points of view. It just helps to make you a well rounded human being i think.......again, these are just the sums of MY expierences.

Buffho I agree with all you said. Hate those types too!
Honesty is important to me, so I like people who speak their minds but are respectful of other peoples opinions at the same time.
I have friends of all different races, religions, and sexual orientations. Don't care what they look like as long as we get along. I also work in avery diverse environment.
I don't however, appreciate religious fanatics of any kind trying to convert me. I don't come to their door or tell them that their beliefs are wrong. Rude & Disrespectful!

nine- buffho. LOL thats funny
arioch - college so diff than high school huh? wasnt for me. could it be because.... my high school was 40% asian and the college i went to was 50%??? quite possibly!
anyway. freshmen year was shit. i was in an all girl suite. ive never been around so much drama in my life. everyone was mad at someone at some point. they all moved in together THIS year and it got REALLY ugly and they had to do some major switching. and the guys all thougth they were gangsters... the only decent person i met was a white dude named pat who would wear his red polar bear jammies to class. the only problem with him though, is that like me, he never showed up to class. LOL so we only talked twice. a cool dude none the less
the college im at now.... since im taking all cop classes. id say about 70% of the peopel are, if not single mothers, are fathers fighting for custody. PRETTY hard to relate, especially when the majority of them wont keep their mouths shut. im not kidding. in 2 hours we got through 3 pages cuz the idiots wouldnt shut up. there are a few i do get along with however, but hanging outside of school? NO WAY!!
i actually enjoyed high school more. believe it or not! a lot more friends, plus it always ended up that my friends would be in all my class. not to mention it was a lot easier to get A's in hs. lol. i had some kick ass teachers back then too. well, i have some kick ass teachers now tooo so.. whatever!

I thought you would get a kick out of that!
I totally relate! It's been a while since I was in University [that's what we call it here, College is more vocational]. I was a theatre major, so there were a lot of people in my classes who were pretty uptight and thought they were geniuses, or the next Meryl Streep.
I just did my scene rehersals, got down to business, and went home. Very cliquey too. I was in the same class with most of these people for 3 years, had enough by then!
One of these people was in Mulholland Drive, Johanna Stein. Had a bit part, housewife or something. What a snob. Rich family and lots of connections. Me, well I am just an executive Director of a childcare centre. Guess fame eluded me! Didn't have money then, and still don't have much. Childcare is so under valued here!
Oh, and she does some improv stuff in California too.
Hope you make us all proud, I'm sure you will! You sound pretty strong minded!

Just wanted everyone to know that we are all on equal ground. I figured it would be easier to hate everyone than try to get to know someone and then try to like them.
Then again they will probably stab me in the back later so I guess Yea its easier to hate everybody.
Except for a few and they know who they are. Creeper

Christians really annoy me, so do new agers, wiccans, satanists and people who claim to be buddhists but know nothing about buddhist philosophy.

Christians annoy me but I kind of like wiccans. I mean they have an unpopular idea but atleast their religion doesn't kill thousands upon thousands of people.
Right Wing christians = the worst. Not that I'm totally against people who are right wing, it's just that's a bad combination of beliefs.
I hate hippies, I forgot to mention that.

I talk to everyone. Especially if I am drunk. I will even approach scary looking girls that are giving me the evil eye, and I will work my charm to make them love me. I am a people person. If someone looks bored or lonely I will be the first to walk up and sit with them and try to cheer them up, or just keep them company. I always make sure that they are ok with me talking to them though. I have never had anyone tell me to go away, or anyone tell me that they just want to be alone. I have the power to totally turn a frown upside down! What a person looks like, smells like, and acts like doesn't matter to me. Maybe it is because I was bullied so bad when I was a kid that I learned to do opposite. I dunno.
I must admit though, there are times when I refuse to talk to anyone. The depressing times. It doesn't happen often.

I hate people. No people specifically, just people in general. This likely was spawned from years of doing Customer Support/Service...where you really deal with the "bottom of the barrel" people....I think I may have liked people at one point in time, but the ignorant of the world have ruined it.
Did I mention I also dislike religious zealots?
heh....some people are ok though...sometimes..
