What were you at school?

Former Member

Just been watching the Inbetweeners and thought it would be a good question to ask on here. Pretty sure its been done before, but that was ages ago

So what were you at school? The cool kid? The geek? Or an Inbetweener?

For me i was an inbetweener but leaning more towards the geek end then being a cool kid

Former Member

Then : Geek.
Now: Geek.

If an "inbetweener" is something in between those two extremes, then yes, I've been that. I never hung around with the "cool kids" who smoked and got a lot into trouble and I did pretty easy in school. I had a couple of inbetweener friends and I was rather good in P.E. I'd probably lean more towards the geek side.

I was scarily like Simon from the Inbetweeners, minus the car with additional crazy coloured hair. Now, I'm more of a "geek".

Former Member

Oh yeah i forgot to add, im probably more of a "geek" now.

Former Member

I'd say an inbetweener then and now.

Former Member

Then: The geekier one in the cool gang
Now: The same i guess, just slightly less geeky

Former Member

Probably an inbetweener, not in the coolest gang but not in the geeky one either

Most of my school friends were younger than me, 3-year age gap and I got on with my helper best. Now that I'm in my 30s though, most of my friends are older than me. Apart from a couple of very special friends, I just never got on with my own age group.

Former Member

I would say I was an inbetweener but, I was probably known as a geek.

You still are at school are you not?

Former Member

I was an inbetweener in more ways than one

Former Member

the inbetween, though if peoples perceptions of smokers and those who dosed about i would be closer to cool kid because of that,
Now I'm close to geek, oh my love of video games

Former Member

Scientifically minded cocksucker

Former Member

I was boring.

you were one of those show off types that didn't catch on just as well as they made themselves believe they did.

Inbetweener toward geek, I'd say. But pretty much an outcast so the geeky stuff had to take over.

Former Member

I was a quiet inbetweener.

Former Member

i didnt really fit in with anyone at school, bit sad really. i never ever did find my niche in the classroom. i had people to hang out with but that was it.

Former Member

I played Dungeons and Dragons, could quote verbatim bits of Star Wars and list the Doctor's companions in chronological order - geek

I also played Rugby, dated the prettiest girl in the school and enjoyed temporary fame after I had to be picked up by my Mum from school for coming in one afternoon after having imbided too much at a local hostelry - cool kid
