What were you like as a kid?

    I spent my middle school years trying to get laid but teachers weren't as cooperative as they are now.

    No wonder this place is such an Algonquin Round Table with all you smart gals and fellas 'round here.

    Being adept at a game- which is really all school is- does not fit one for smart.

    I don't think school is a game, but school can be gamed.
    Anyway, it was just a joke.

    I think it's hard to say what one was like as a kid. My perception of myself was much different during different stages of development.
    I think others' perceptions of me also changed as I changed.

    I would say I am very similar today to who I was, but I am different.
    There is more to me and less to me.

    You do realize being called a teacher's pet is not a compliment, right?
     
  6. I was pretty awesome myself.
    My childhood was actually made into several John Hughes movies and '80s blockbuster films.

    Sarcasm is lost on you, per usual.
    As are most literary conceits.
    Go back and sit in the corner, dunce.

    We all know you must have been a three octave fart blossom.

    I don't like blasting my personal life all over here, Vombatus.
    But, yes, there was a time when I was very much a little stinker.
    I was the only boy in a family of girls and it messed with me little head.

    I just wanted to use "fart blossom" in a sentence since I haven't used that term since sixth grade.

    Fat, hyperactive, marble-mouthed, clumsy, socially inept, unfocused, depressed, inconsistent, unorganized, immature and a complete load.

    Oh right, how I was as a kid.

    In that case:

    Fat, hyperactive, marble-mouthed, clumsy, socially inept, unfocused, depressed, inconsistent, unorganized, immature and a complete load.

    Huh, I guess I can at least cross "inconsistent" from the list ...

    Sarcasm only works when there is tiny chance that the person using it will say something reasonable. That does not apply here.
