I am Arch-Book Nerd, Lackey Master, and an occasional Cardflopper myself. I was even on the track team my freshman year, though under misguided pretense, and the slowest person on the team, hence my lack of returning in subsequent years. You may not obvioulsy be, say a Nerd and a Dweeb, but a Nerd may be a flopjock and a Goth, though I have yet to encounter one. And there are those, like my friend Amy there (the Y-chromosome deficient friend of which I have spoken before), that ellude classification.
And I did not meant to imply that the Lost have no friends, or any of that. Many times, there are enough of them to form their own group, and they can be, as Darkstar demonstrates, somewhat Xenophobic, so to speak.
Yes, that is the beauty of books. Using them as weapons, you are much safer from retribution. And should Books be shown to be dangerous weapons, well, then we would not be allowed to take them to school, and that would be great relief on many student's stressed spines.
Oh, but I feel in a writing mood, if I may but fancy upon a topic...
Stick around, Rand, and write often. You can also submit articles through the link on the front page.
