Do you remember cliques? They were those exclusivist social groups everyone talked about in high school, but they extend beyond those walls and show up in many places. Perhaps you are even in one without realizing it. That is not always bad, though; it is normal for people to find like-minded others. Listen and give your thoughts below.

Good episode. In school, being an extremely shy kid, I was never really into cliques. I had very few friends and tended to keep to myself for the most part. Furries were the first group in all my life that I actually felt I could really be a part of. Everything else to me was like trying to be the “square peg in the round hole”. Even when I tried, I still felt like I was trying to force myself to fit in, be someone other than me.
i never really fit in anywhere, mainly because 6-9th grade, i was always moving to different schools and never had the time to adjust. when i finally settled down into one school on the 3rd year, there was no clique for me: it was a largely christian school, but i was (and still kinda am) a metalhead and later in the 2nd year, a furry (which no one knew what that was), so i just sat out by myself. i did make a friend and he tried introducing me into his paintball group, but that was short-lived. then another kid who avoided everyone else like the plague decided to join up with me (since i was a loner like him), and though we weren’t that much like each other, we agreed that the general teenage population was absolutely stupid. yeah.
long rambling comment is long and rambling.
