Thread: Who isn school was 'Uncaste'?

  1. #1

    Default Who isn school was 'Uncaste'?

    Inspired by the post here.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.'

    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.

    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.

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

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

    Signature by rubah. I think.
