Respectquote:This guy, when he started at his current university, was unhappy, to say the least. He felt that the average intelligence of the college students (he transferred from a junior college to a four-year university) was a little bit...lower than he thought it would be, to say the least. Still, he made one or two friends. He tried out for RA position (something he detailed in Crazy Prepared), but didn't get it - but not because of lack of preparedness, no - because he was a huge Jerk rear end. Finally, he took on a volunteer position with a group so he could bolster his resume for RA position...but loved the experience so much that he ran for an executive position in the group. He got it, and today he's a respected student leader. Plot quote:This troper started as a standard nerd with bits of Cloud Cuckoolander. After extensive experience with bullies he went through a Nietzsche Wannabe period, until he voluntarily went back two grades. As a highschool veteran, he first became The Stoner, went up to be a Jerkass and a Knife Nut (bad combination, folks), alienated his best friend, and became a poster boy for Loners Are Freaks. One year later, he got a new Nakama, and became the Papa Bear. Saddly, after an Awful Truth and a few funerals, e failed another school year. He is now a Secondary Character Deadpan Snarker in the main drama, one of Those Two Guys. Group quote:This Troper was a Nerd and loner her entire life, loving books and not at all interested in dating, only socializing when absolutely necessary or to relieve her mother's worries. A few weeks in college, and while hanging out with a group of peers, I noticed it was time to go to a class, and I felt so strange as I left but couldn't figure out why. Some time later, I realized what strange emotion I was feeling — I didn't want to leave! I was actually enjoying hanging out with a goup of people instead of feeling like it was a chore I couldn't wait to get over with! Since then, I've been opening up more than I ever expected. This should be a good thing, but I feel like a hypocrite for continuing to identify with loners, and my developing interest in the opposite sex has also led to predictable consequences. I miss the old me.

Almost everyone in it got there by a similar path - apply for the actual job, breathe too loud and tell racist jokes in the interview (ha! trope!), get rejected, give up and do the volunteer thing. quote:Plot But this one is just loving sad.

I think someone made fun of a girl for having her period for some reason, and that weird looking alien carries around a fanny pack full of tampons which smoothed out the situation , but I'm not entirely sure either.

This is like in that Gene Wolf book, where there's a nation of people that speak the same language as their neighbors, but all 'words' have been replaced with phrases with many layered meanings that alter the way that language functions fundamentally.

I know TV Tropes words and the tl;dr is "I used to be wacky but then my life went to poo poo in a variety of ways and now I'm at a dead end hoping for a lucky break, because my life is not in my control."

Except it cannot be translated as all other cultures lack a word expressing a deep and lasting friendship of the utmost loyalty forged through common experience, trials, and tribulations. Only the Japanese understand such a bond.

Found some racist STDH from LinkedIn Pulse. Pay close attention to the fifth and six paragraphs.  Green is a white man, while red is a black woman. They both commented on this article. constantIllusion has a new favorite as of 23:05 on Mar 29, 2016 |

Does Hawaii have that many black people? Or is this person just applying the term to anyone who isn't lily-white? Or maybe, just maybe, this person has never been to Hawaii and is a stupid racist making poo poo up
