Type 4: The Scrapper

You were a dork from a long line of dorks, but you were determined to rise above your dork heritage and get all the shallow friendships and fleeting romances that you deserved. And you clawed your way to the top the old-fashioned way: by kissing ass. Needless to say, you left a path of hurt feelings and crestfallen nerds in your path.


By high school, you'd made it to the upper tier, only to be incredibly disappointed by the lack of loyalty and integrity among the friends that you fought so hard to make. But then, how did you think they got to the top, genius?


Thanks to those scarring, social-ladder-climbing years, you'll write off coolness and revel in dorkiness forever. Now that you can see the value of steadfast originality in the face of conformity, you'll actually wish you let your inner dork out all those years. And while you'll try to be more and more of an unabashed nerd as you get older, thanks to those affectations you developed in the pursuit of popularity, you'll still manage to attract the same empty coolness you always did. Too bad, so sad.
