Who isn school was 'Uncaste'?

[Tainted Angel]

Inspired by the post here (http://forums.eyesonff.com/showthread.php?t=83886).

I'm curious how many here were Uncaste nopt a gee, not a nerd, not a tabletopgamer, not even a gamer (FF don't count for the discussion).

Just Uncaste, the defination I'm directly lifting from the Hindu/Indian caste ssytem.

*Raised hand*

[~SapphireStar~]

I dont understand the question. Seriously.

[Tempest]

Same here. Could you maybe clarify your question.

[Miriel]

He's asking who didn't have a definitive or stereotypical role or group in high school.

My group of friends was pretty eclectic. Common thing being that we were all on the dance team but "dancer" didn't define us. I don't worry too much about labels though.

[Levian]

You mean people that are generally nothing, right? Just being there, breathing oxygen.

Anyway, I was the average normal guy. You don't get much average than me.

Edit: Colonel Freakytoes beat me to the explanation.

Oh right ... couldnt make sense of it.

Well eh, I was an average normal person also, so were my mates.

[Ouch!]

As far as I know, I haven't been labeled. I can't think of an exact group that I fit the perameters of. I don't think about it a whole lot.

[Alside 64]

Eh, I fit into the 'emo' catigory. I can't go five minutes without being called emo. Infact, people don't even call me by my name anymore, now it's just 'emo kid.'

[~SapphireStar~]

lol, I was called an emo kid in college because I had my hoodie hood up ... it was flipping raining! I dont want my hair wet. Plus I was never emo, I was a mosher so that also annoyed me.

[Skarr]

I was in the DIDN'T CARE group. Even at work, my buddy and I are uncaring about the job and a few other things. :)

Aren't the absolute lowest of people, street cleaners etc, outside the caste system? So they would be uncaste?

I think the actual term is "untouchables" for the people who are the lowest of the low in the caste system.

[rubah]

In South Asia's caste system, a Dalit — formerly called untouchable — is a person outside the four castes, and considered below them. Included are leather-workers, scavengers, street handicrafters, poor farmers and laborers.

[Yamaneko]

Yeah, untouchables are outside the caste system.

[fire_of_avalon]

Why would leather-workers be considered bad? That's an interesting, skilled trade.

Anyways, I was Megan. That's pretty much it.

[Yamaneko]

Because cows are sacred in the Hindu tradition.

[fire_of_avalon]

It doesn't have to be cow leather, it could be other kinds of leather.

[DarknessFromAbove]

I'm nobody . . . really, I'm to quiet most of the time to have a lable . . . and I like it that way.

[Miriel]

Why would leather-workers be considered bad? That's an interesting, skilled trade.

Possibly because in Hindu culture, killing animals is a no-no and working with the skin of a dead animal might not be considered a good thing. This is just wild speculation on my part.

Edit: Yamaneko beat me to it.

[-N-]

Well geez, I guess you don't need me around anymore for these kinds of things, huh! :mad2:

[Ryth]

I don't know what people label me as but I suppose I'm the "lonely emo punk rocker nerd", or something. I hang out with the labeled "punk rockers", I'm a "nerd" because I'm considered a "smart" guy, and I'm that "lonely emo" guy because no one in said group really talks to me frequently, so I'm lonely, because no one really wants to be my close friend and I'm "emo" because I walk without pride with my head down and I always wear a hood when outside....I personally, do not classify myself in any social stereotype clique. I think people should only be themselves, and not classify and alter themselves into a certain persona defined by the entertainment industry.

[Yamaneko]

There's still much you can teach us, Neel!

[Rase]

I fall into the group of "that guy".

[Lynx]

i didnt fall into any sterio types wasnt considered a skater or gamer or anything else just kinda talked to everyone. i always just wore plain whatever shirts i liked and jeans that way i would never fit any steriotypes. things changed now now im a definate skater.

[LunarWeaver]

I was the GAY KID.

Does he mean happy or not?... Hmm, I don't know either!... ~_^

[Yuffie514]

i don't think i ever had a label, but whatever makes average (not in class though, xD). now that period was what i'd call an era of Peace...

Yeah you are right nice memory.


I am a mix of everything, and nothing at the same time.

[escobert]

Me = stoners

[SNOOZER]

I usually hung out with the Wise Janitor. She taught me everything I know.

[Cless]

I got threw in with the stoners for no real reason.

[Jowy]

Hm. It's a toss up between the stoners, and the 'popular kids'. None of that emo scene crap back in '04 though. :)

[Omnislash07]

Me and my friends are classified as the gamers in school. People know us as that so well that once in a while people that don't play many games will come and ask us about games stuff they might want to try and I even had one of my teachers ask me about what system she should buy her kid for christmas.

[Zeldy]

Haha.
Im a loser and a Goth according to other people.

[Shlup]

I would say I was entirely "uncaste."

[Venom]

I'm cool with everyone.

Or so they think.:eep:

[Freya]

I'm everywhere. I'm in everygroup but not in one. I talk to all those who cross my path. I dont care what you look like or who you hang out with, or how you dresss, all i care about is your personality. If it sucks then i don't like you if its good your my friend. But that's just me for yeah.

[rubah]

Emo started being strong in '03.

[Rye]

I'm not anything. I'm Jessica and I talk to everyone. :D

[Shlup]

I'm not anything. I'm Jessica and I talk to everyone. :D
I thought that's what we were talking about when using the term "uncaste." And your name isn't Jessica, it's Rye. Everyday.

Yeah, but I don't like the word uncaste. It makes me think of the Untouchables from the Hindu class system. ;___; I don't wanna be an Untouchable.

Sure thing. Now go make me some leather. :mog:

[KoShiatar]

I was the strange one who did drawings. And I think in part I still am.

[Mirage]

I was a nerd/geek/gamer. And I'm proud of it.
