Date: May 25th, 2015 7:05 PM Author: Abusive underhanded old irish cottage I. GENOTYPES & PHENOTYPES
Americans are raised to believe that acts of will are what matter in life, but this is wrong. Optimism is a message sold by liars. Fatalism is credited. Every act of will is limited by genotype and phenotype, and is even a PRODUCT of genotype and phenotype, since they are generated by your brain which is a product of your genetics. This is why it's impossible to escape your Clique. Really the ONLY thing you can do to improve yourself that won't end in disaster is to try to reach the Ascended Form of your Clique, i.e., a Woman becoming a Hot Girl, a Scumbag becoming a High Prole, or a Loser becoming a High Loser, such as liberal arts professor, head of state, or villain. In order to do that, you need not only the will, but a certain amount of luck.
• Clique is a combination of genotype and phenotype. (See Glossary if you flunked high school biology)
• You are born into a clique and clique is as unalterable as eye color or fingerprint.
• While occasionally it appears that someone has changed cliques, a scientific observation will always show that he was misclassified previously. Genes can be dominant or recessive; Phenotype, expressed through gene dominance, is what is salient.
II. BASIC CLIQUE CLASSIFICATIONS
• There are and always will be 6 primary clique classifications:
Prep Jock Nerd Scumbag Loser Woman
• A Jock can be misidentified as a Prep, or a Loser can be misidentified as a Scumbag, it happens.
• There are also individuals, who are hybrid between two Cliques, so what appears to be a normal Scumbag might, in truth, be a Scumgineer. This does not mean that he transitioned from Scumbag to Nerd but rather that his half-Nerd genotype took longer than usual to manifest in his phenotype being previously overwhelmed by his Scumbag genetics.
• There are hybrids between them. A Woman can be hybrid Woman clique with another clique or even (extremely rarely) two other Cliques. Not all women are Woman Clique.
• (A) Guy can be born into a Prep family that had recessive Scumbag genes in their genotype. (Then, when he leaves home, he reverts to his true self in order to achieve homeostasis.
III. SUB-CLIQUES
• The Loser Clique is subdivided into cliqued Losers and cliqueless Losers.
• Cliqueless Losers aren't really PART of the Loser clique per se but they are classified there for various scientific reasons.
• The difference between a cliqued Loser and cliqueless Loser is that the cliqued Loser will be part of some Loser community (Goth, FauxNerd, whatever) while the cliqueless Loser is reviled by all and is by definition a Loner.
• Cliqued Losers will gather together for support while cliqueless Losers will be shunned even by other cliqueless Losers. Friends = People who form social alliances based on Clique and Phenotype. No one wants to be friends with a Loser, not even other Losers. Posters are cliqueless and have Bad Phenotypes
• There are, of course, overlaps in certain areas between the cliques. For example, you will find both Jock and Prep executives. Likewise you will find both Scumbags and Losers doing menial tasks.
IV. IDENTIFICATION OF CLIQUES
Everyone understands Clique Theory on a sub conscious level. It is innate, because people naturally divide into groups to war for sex and power, and the most natural groupings in nature are based on genotype and phenotype. However, cultures can choose to set up rules, norms, and laws that either reinforce Cliques, or try to break them down. As has already been noted, the U.S. is set up in a way that not only solidifies Cliques, but ensures that we have the strictest Clique system in the world.
1) To identify someone's clique you do NOT look at their station in life but rather at their GENOTYPE and PHENOTYPE.
• Cliques manifest in a person's phenotype, not just their personality, or even their demeanor. Jocks have more robust builds and bigger dicks than the lower cliques, and a magnetic countenance due to high testosterone. Nerds have larger heads and are awkward. Losers can be similar phenotypically to Nerds, but they will have a more Losery countenance. Scumbags look like Scumbags.
• Clique body types are unalterable. The problem with Losers is that their metabolisms conspire to give them bad phenotypes. Diet/exercise will never completely do it for a Loser: he will always be fat and/or weak.
Clique is largely DNA driven and can be generally be detected within 5 seconds of meeting someone, but a lot of people are on the cusp of various Cliques and can enter them, even if they do so awkwardly. A Bad Prep is going to be way, way more successful than a Good Loser. Like, ridiculously so. A Jock who is bad at sports is going to be accepted into the Jock Clique just for playing and pretending to like sports. He'll never be a Good Jock, but he'll date Hot Girls and have a job in a back-slapping field. Many, many Losers would make very good Nerds. Particularly if you're a smart Loser, all you have to do is re-orient your interests away from liberal arts and towards Sci-fi and stuff.
There is no moving beyond it. Literally anything you do, you're aligning yourself with one Clique or another. Even if you disavow all job interviews or any interest in liberal arts careers, your Clique will follow you to the grave.
Live in a cabin in the woods? Nerd/Loser. Teach English in Japan? Loser. Walk around saying "High school is so over, I don't talk to anyone from high school, I've Matured well beyond my peers, Cliques are so 1999." Loser. You literally cannot escape Cliques unless you're like a really cool character in a movie or book with no discernible friends who always gets the girl with no effort.
Examples:
• Paul Krugman and Thomas Friedman have the same job but Krugman is a Nerd and Friedman is a Prep.
• Kevin Smith is rich but is still CLEARLY by genotype and phenotype a Loser.
• John McCain = Prep (Military version). His is father (and grandfather) were both Admirals. Jocks in their Ascended form are the military leaders and elites.
2. Career Accomplishments do NOT define Clique
Do not make the mistake of concluding that that career path or professional accomplishments define Clique. They don't. Genotype and phenotype define Clique. Personal and professional accomplishments are then the result of your Clique, with acts of will only able to determine whether you end up in High or Low status within your Clique.
Losers get Bad GPAs because they become mentally ill trying to change Cliques. (See Case Study 1). Qfora's own Andy did better in college after joining a frat than he did as a try-hard loner Loser. Losers need structure to excel. Left alone to work independently, they would just wallow in ignominy all day. Andy joining a frat put him in a position where there were clear goals and expectations for him to meet.
The reality is that being a Loser means that someone is always trying to pwn you. Sometimes, a Loser's worst enemies are fellow Losers. Losers see other Losers as competition, and many Losers are in denial about their own Loser status, and foolishly think that pwning other Losers will gain them entry into a Clique. Whenever a Loser is making advances by excelling in academics, professionally, or seemingly making waves flirting with a Hot Girl, someone will attempt to pwn him, because it just doesn't feel right to observers.
Losers are constantly distrustful of one another. Everything a Loser achieves comes at the expense of another Loser. It's a zero-sum game. Engineers create entire industries that never existed through the sheer force of engineering innovation. Losers displace Men with their ambition if they're lucky; Engineers create and displace infrastructure
Hypothesis: The essential characteristics of the Cliqueless Loser are struggle and disappointment.
During very young childhood a child's peers are defined by their parents and caretakers, so that other children are often forced to associate with a Cliqueless Loser during playdates and park activities and while they wish to eject him from their group, sensing his Cliqueless nature, they cannot because their caretakers encourage them to "share" and "be social" in Preparation for their lives as members of a Clique where they will look out for and aid their fellow Clique members.
The Loser thus does not become aware of his Loser status in its true form until the age when children get to select their own playmates and social peers. In Third grade he expects that Sally Jenkins, whose Nerd mom is friends with HIS Nerd mom, will invite him to her birthday party along with the rest of the class only to find that no invitation is forthcoming and when he asks Sally about it she openly mocks him to the great amusement of all others in the area. He is hurt and disappointed but believes this to be an anomaly in his life and is disappointed again when he does not receive an invitation from Brad or Jerry, and when Mike's mom forces Mike to invite him he finds himself shunned and alone while the others play.
The Loser buries himself in media and goes to adults for help where he receives the same message, things are tough now but you will grow out of it. The third grade Loser is the 6th grade winner. He believes this for a time, and does see others move up and down in the social strata, but ultimately, if he is smart, he figures out to his crushing disappointment that some are stuck at the bottom and cannot rise no matter their efforts. He holds out hope for reinventing himself in high school and then in college but fails miserably both times because of his natural limitations and the nature of the Cliques.
He will struggle to find a place and be disappointed. He will struggle to achieve like a Jock or a Nerd and be disappointed when he inevitably fails. He will struggle to be carefree and easygoing like a Scumbag but his Loser nature will leave him anxious and, of course, disappointed by his failure.
For the rest of his life, then, the Loser continues futilely to chase a dream he can never reach. Things never come easily to him because he has no lane to stay in. While the other Cliques find their stride the Loser attempts to emulate them to no success. The Nerd enjoys studying and finds it easy. The Loser must spend agonizing hours poring over books to get good grades only to find that they are not rewarded because it is not the grades that get the Nerd hired, the grades and the job are both mere side effects of his being a good Nerd. The Jock enjoys working out and sees significant results, while the Loser spends hateful mornings trying to get in shape only to tweak a muscle or break a bone, setting him back to square one. Even Scumbags can find their place, since they have the ability to ascend to High Prole and become a prosperous plumber or electrician and live a happy life. The Loser can also become a plumber, but he will be the plumber nobody else wants to work with and nobody wants to hire twice, eking out a pitiful plumber existence.
Every time the Loser tries to find a place or a lane he is smashed back out of it and back into his proper place. This leads to a life of failure and disappointment. Nothing comes easy, nothing is stable, and there is no sense of security or belonging.
The saddest thing is if a Loser impregnates a woman while masquerading as be-Cliqued. The child will either be another Loser or will be a Cliqued child that the Loser will pour all of his hopes and dreams into only to find himself rejected by the child when it matures (how many kids don't visit or really acknowledge their Loser dad even though he tried his hardest to be a good father, while instead favoring their Nerd stepfather who they consider their 'real dad'?) or his genes will express themselves in another Loser and he will have to experience the pain of vicarious disappointment and knowing the horrible fate that awaits his Loser son.
What must it be like for a Loser dad sitting alone in the bleachers watching his Loser son's little league teammates taunt or ignore him? That must be very close to hell on earth.
Anyway, anyone can be poor or fat or unlucky but only the Loser can try his hardest every time and receive nothing but disappointment. He is a mule with a carrot dangled in front of his face by a rider on his back, walking ever forward but getting no cLoser to reward. He is a mole in whack a mole, always rising and being smashed back into place by the world. Yet he cannot accept his lot (no lane) so he must constantly be struggling and constantly be disappointed.

I had a core group of friends I went to middle school with and hung around with when I was in HS. I was definitely not popular, but I don't think anyone thought of me as a loser. I was a contributing member of the football team (by no means a star) and therefore accepted by those bros, although I wasn't very close with them. Maybe some people thought I was a loser, idk, never really occurred to me. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2888868&forum_id=2#27960529) |

Date: May 25th, 2015 7:23 PM Author: Abusive underhanded old irish cottage This means you were a Loser.
• The Loser Clique is subdivided into cliqued Losers and cliqueless Losers.
• Cliqueless Losers aren't really PART of the Loser clique per se but they are classified there for various scientific reasons.
• The difference between a cliqued Loser and cliqueless Loser is that the cliqued Loser will be part of some Loser community (Goth, FauxNerd, whatever) while the cliqueless Loser is reviled by all and is by definition a Loner.
• Cliqued Losers will gather together for support while cliqueless Losers will be shunned even by other cliqueless Losers. Friends = People who form social alliances based on Clique and Phenotype. No one wants to be friends with a Loser, not even other Losers. Posters are cliqueless and have Bad Phenotypes
• There are, of course, overlaps in certain areas between the cliques. For example, you will find both Jock and Prep executives. Likewise you will find both Scumbags and Losers doing menial tasks.
Everyone understands Clique on a sub conscious level. It is innate, because people naturally divide into groups to war for sex and power, and the most natural groupings in nature are based on genotype and phenotype. However, cultures can choose to set up rules, norms, and laws that either reinforce Cliques, or try to break them down. As has already been noted, the U.S. is set up in a way that not only solidifies Cliques, but ensures that we have the strictest Clique system in the world.
1) To identify someone's clique you do NOT look at their station in life but rather at their GENOTYPE and PHENOTYPE.
• Cliques manifest in a person's phenotype, not just their personality, or even their demeanor. Jocks have more robust builds and bigger dicks than the lower cliques, and a magnetic countenance due to high testosterone. Nerds have larger heads and are awkward. Losers can be similar phenotypically to Nerds, but they will have a more Losery countenance. Scumbags look like Scumbags.
• Clique body types are unalterable. The problem with Losers is that their metabolisms conspire to give them bad phenotypes. Diet/exercise will never completely do it for a Loser: he will always be fat and/or weak.
Clique is largely DNA driven and can be generally be detected within 5 seconds of meeting someone, but a lot of people are on the cusp of various Cliques and can enter them, even if they do so awkwardly. A Bad Prep is going to be way, way more successful than a Good Loser. Like, ridiculously so. A Jock who is bad at sports is going to be accepted into the Jock Clique just for playing and pretending to like sports. He'll never be a Good Jock, but he'll date Hot Girls and have a job in a back-slapping field. Many, many Losers would make very good Nerds. Particularly if you're a smart Loser, all you have to do is re-orient your interests away from liberal arts and towards Sci-fi and stuff.
There is no moving beyond it. Literally anything you do, you're aligning yourself with one Clique or another. Even if you disavow all job interviews or any interest in liberal arts careers, your Clique will follow you to the grave.
Live in a cabin in the woods? Nerd/Loser. Teach English in Japan? Loser. Walk around saying "High school is so over, I don't talk to anyone from high school, I've Matured well beyond my peers, Cliques are so 1999." Loser. You literally cannot escape Cliques unless you're like a really cool character in a movie or book with no discernible friends who always gets the girl with no effort.
Examples:
• Paul Krugman and Thomas Friedman have the same job but Krugman is a Nerd and Friedman is a Prep.
• Kevin Smith is rich but is still CLEARLY by genotype and phenotype a Loser.
• John McCain = Prep (Military version). His is father (and grandfather) were both Admirals. Jocks in their Ascended form are the military leaders and elites.

Date: May 25th, 2015 2:38 PM Author: Soul-stirring impertinent karate ape I was insanely unpopular amongst those in my grade. I had plenty of acquaintances that I would hang out with for a year or two of HS, but we'd ultimately have a falling out. My true friends were both in the grade ahead of me. We played disc golf with one another every afternoon and shot the shit as day turned to twilight out in that park. It was our therapy. Senior year, when one went to college and the other went to run the cart barn down at the local country club, I made some new friends and smoked a lot of pot, took a lot of pills, and was doing coke and Roxies by the end of senior year. Also got black out drunk a dozen or more times. Grades took a nose dive, but I'd already been admitted to college so it didn't matter.

Date: May 25th, 2015 3:29 PM Author: electric carnelian whorehouse I find this thread interesting.
Personally, all my friends had moved away by the time I was in tenth grade, and I didn't make much effort to make new ones. I usually sat with foreign / exchange kids at lunch, or sometimes goth kids. I didn't really socialize at all. No luck with girls, either, and I was too dense to recognize a few opportunities with some really pretty girls that I did have. I looked really young for my age and I was always the smallest one, which didn't help. I hated school and I was absent 50 times in my senior year. I was known as the computer genius, which was more of an unwanted reputation than a fact. My brother was even worse - he didn't go to school for two years because of mystery illnesses, and his only social interactions during that time were drug-filled parties with neighborhood kids that screwed him up for years. |

Date: May 25th, 2015 6:40 PM Author: sick canary stain Was all around mr. everything and am going to sound douchey. Grew up playing traveling basketball and baseball club w suburban public school kids but went to private school. There was zero overlap between the jocks/partiers/sex-havers and the creative or AP kids, other than me. Hung out w the public school party just as often as my school starting in 7th grade. Basically introduced all private school vices from the public school when it was just booty dancing and blow jobs, then introduced pills and fraud to public school kids from the private school. Other than that, pretty much the same as the pumos ITT.. Class pres, captain of varsity basketball, boys state, etc. I was bullied in 5th grade and overcame by fighting, resolving to never be socially maligned again.
However there was 1 180 thing that I'll never get back: I banged the hottest freshmen when I was a Sop, Senior AND as a freshmen in college. 18 and 14. The only time my parents really ever shamed me for my choices was when I came home for winter break and a mid-pubescent chick gets dropped off by her concerned father without any notice from me. |

All the black jocks wanted me to play football and baskeball bcuz I was 6'2 but I knew I wasnt a good bballer so I promised my black jock friends I would try out varsity football my senior. I tried out and I started and the game came natural to me with very little practice. A couple months later I was recruited by boat load of div II teams with relatively top tier academics and a few shit pure shit div I's (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2888868&forum_id=2#27962942) |

Date: May 26th, 2015 12:04 AM Author: Diverse turquoise twinkling uncleanness I mean, it was kind of a hard life, between touring with my band, modeling, the football career (both playing and coaching), and fucking various hot girls (mostly virgins). But did that really make me super popular? Hard to say. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2888868&forum_id=2#27964529) |

Date: June 17th, 2015 7:23 AM Author: Overrated Salmon Dysfunction Like many other pumos on this board, I was the varsity football and baseball captain and also ran track for a couple of years. I was class president all four years of high school, dated a cheerleader for the first two years (natch) but dumped her for this hot artsy chick my junior year, and was voted prom king uncontested. I would describe my personality as a mix of chill and fratty, and yet I was unique - I was above the cliques and trends, and I was friends with pretty much everyone, from the "cool" kids down to the nerds and goths. So yeah, I'd say I was pretty popular. I also took all the AP and IB classes, and in my class valedictorian speech I thanked my friends and teachers for the support they had provided me throughout the years. After graduating summa cum laude from Harvard in 3 years with degrees in math and economics, I worked at Goldman for two years, went back to Wharton for my MBA and have a spot lined up at Apollo after I graduate. My father offered to buy me a gently-used Lamborghini Gallardo in recognition of my accomplishments, but I declined and told him to donate the money to my high school's disabled students fund instead - which is incidentally named after me, as I was the one who founded the fund and secured its first $300,000 in donations. Besides, I don't need the Gallardo - I'm perfectly happy with my rickety old BMW M5. Right now, apart from finishing up my MBA and starting work at Apollo, my pet project is convincing my girlfriend to quit her modeling career - which is a huge time suck, and frankly not a good place to be long-term - and to pursue her passion for social justice instead.

Date: June 17th, 2015 9:04 AM Author: contagious deer antler pisswyrm By far I was most popular when I was in HS. I imagine that that says something bad about me, but I'm not sure what. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2888868&forum_id=2#28139439) |

Date: June 17th, 2015 9:57 AM Author: Comical hall Was hanging out with one of my old high school friends this weekend, one of the few with whom I still keep in touch, and I was reminded of the fact that I really disliked a lot of the people with whom I went to school.
Not that I wasn't popular by some definition. I was involved with lots of clubs, sports, etc. So, I had lots of acquaintances, and I would go through the motions of hanging out with them. But few of them were real friends. |

Date: July 14th, 2015 9:40 PM Author: Razzle chocolate lettuce library HS: Muscadine Wine glory days, and by a long shot. Fucking loved every second of HS, even freshman & sophomore years. Captain of the football team, drank beer like it was my job, 2.1 GPA with a 1390 SAT, got into every college I applied and had multiple football scholarship offers (IAA, 2), and hooked up with some stone cold stunner 10's. Had a great crew of about 20 dudes and never went anywhere with out them. Parents were rich, drove a nice car, got in fights regularly. The only time I ever got more ass in my life was as a young attorney.
EDIT: even today, 20 years down the line, I still pull out some of those old HS football tapes just to get a little bit of that old feeling.
However, I did move on and kicked ass in other things, things are pretty awesome for me now. Some of the guys from back in the day didn't do shit and all they do is sit around and talk about 'back in the day' shit, which is no way to be.
