If I was a faculty member of Escapist High, I'd end up settling in from a previous school district (lots of Internet communities out there). The lessons would be more hands-on, and bonus points for explosions (it'd help keep the youngin's off them darn TweetBooks and FaceVille thingees, dagnabbit!). It's not every day that a class would be taught by a fez-wearing hamster, but Escapist High isn't a normal school! It would involve lots of tiny stairs, robot arms to lift things, and well-placed water bottles. Prepare to get Scienced!

This would be the world's most terrifying school.

That said, I'd be that stupid teacher who keeps trying to be "with it" and cool, but just makes a total mess of it... always. :D

Personally I think you and your bro's would be the "cool kids". Not in a bad way, in a everyone wants to be your friend way because you're all super fly.

As for me, I'm a drifter I guess. In high school I got to know everyone and made great friends in each "clique". Eventually I settled down in one area and just stayed there, occasionally going to other places depending on the weather and such.

I'd be the member of drumline who doesn't do drugs. As well as is a vigorous AP student, but is not a complete asshole about it. I'd get my work done on time, and be generally interested in classwork. I'd also enjoy wide arrays of creative writing and goofing off in Computer classes.

I'd be in the marching band (Orchestra is boring) and hang out with the Magic the Gathering club.

Well shit, that sounds exactly like my daily life...

I would be the weird, socially awkward loner with insane philosophical theories who, though obviously passionate and talented in all of his classes, is getting terrible grades due to a bad work ethic. My sworn enemy is this guy (as if he hasn't heard that a thousand times before >.>).

I'm the nerd in the background, filming and reading whilst doing my best to not get involved in the petty drama politics around me... <.<

I'd be the one level headed friend in a group of bad kids who do drugs and shit. Kinda like the voice of reason, but in a humourously sarcastic and prickish kind of way.

I'd also be the alcoholic, that one kid that's always with a beer.

I'd get average marks all year, but that's ok because I won't really try, and I plan on doing a trade anyway.

I'd also be on the soccer team, because I'm actually half decent, and used to play until my knee decided to give in.

It's hard to say since the Escapist is nothing like my highschool, thank god.

I'd just be that one guy who everyone sees occasionally and maybe recognizes but never talks to or is really friends with. You know, that one guy, you think his name might have been James but you can't remember exactly and you're too embarrassed to ask.

I would be one of the upperclassmen who a lot of people know and like. I would generally try to help people when I could. I'd also mostly be one of the theater kids, and if I'm not hanging out in the theater I'm at home gaming.

I'd join the "creepy person standing there and watching you all"-faction, because I mostly just read the conversations here instead of participating in them. Also, I quietly fangirl about the cheerleaders, football players and whatever you'd call the popular people (read: users with many posts who make me laugh).

In reality, I have few friends because of my "nerdyness" (I know, shocking...) and the fact that most people in school just piss me off and I don't bother not telling them in one way or another. I'm the one who goes along just well with her teachers and has fairly good grades without any effort, despite having a decent amount of hours of absence because I just hate going to school and by now, don't think I learn anything there (probably never really did anyway, lol).

I'd be the guy everybody wants in their group for projects, like real high school was.

A lot of my classes had review games before the test so shitheads could cram the day before. I was a freakin' all-star when it came to review games, especially history.

Hey, I think I recognize you, are we in the same class? For 7 years you say?

OT: Considering how I am at this forum I guess I wouldn't really fit in to any group. Not quite nerdy enough, nor am I a jock. I make a memorable first impression so I wouldn't be forgotten, but I'd probably not stick out so much.

I would be that guy who becomes friends with some really nice and enjoyable girls, but ends up dating the girls who are a bit crazy (especially the suicidal Russian one (don't ask me))

I will also be the guy who always postpone his papers or orals to the last day, but for some freaking annoying reason always manages to pull it through, getting better grades than people who used several days to prepare theirs) usual because he is very good to talk/write around things and sound smart.

I'll probably be some other things too, but I wouldn't give a shit about what the other people meant as long as I had some really good friends.

GET ME OUT OF HEEEEEERRREEEEEEE!!!

...Although I do like old man Yahtzee's angry literature lessons. They're fun.
Yeah, he'd probably be like Lewis Black in the movie Accepted: knowing the truths about the world, sick of all the bull and spewing righteousness in a belligerent manner...who would probably be competing for attenton with Mr. Sterling, the other preachy professor-guy who frequently temps from another school.

OT: I'd probably be what I was in high school: half-jock, half-nerd. I'd be running for the cross country team (if there was one...with a quality outdoor trail), but would be in with the niche of the nerds. Granted, I'd mostly spend my time either in the library or dutifully attending class.

Although, considering how I've been here, I wouldn't speak all that much for fear of ridicule, and would let out wise kernels of truths every now and then...or would fall flat on my face trying to let out a kernel of truth and make myself look more like a fool.

Side note: I feel that those who call themselves "furries" or "bronies" would most likely be the more vocal of the social outcasts. I would still identify with them, but I still feel as though they would be seen as "those weirdos".

I'd be the history teacher who refuses to teach what he's supposed to teach, spends most lessons talking and spends most of the time watching barely related movies.

I'd be the kid at lunch who sits in the corner and eats paste. Yummy!

Actually I'm more like the grumpy old janitor, making angry comments and saying how people just don't understand while staying aloof and keeping to myself but secretly only wanting a hug.
