I'm a what now?!

[Ulquiorra4sama]

People often come up to me and ask me if I'm emo or not. It's cause I wear all black all the time. Meh, it's just kind of annoying.

No one ever pointed out that people think i'm emo before i suddenly showed up in school wearing a white t-shirt and light grey-ish jeans. They gave me the same look the people in Aliens give to the people who have the aliens popping out of them.

So yeah, it was kinda annoying.

I often get asked if I'm a hippy.

I am not a hippy, I just have long hair.

I don't even wear hippy clothes!

get a job hippy!

so wait, how is a 14 year old openly gay? how do you define your sexuality at 14 anyway, fuck me im old

In eighth grade I said I had German heritage, so people started calling me a nazi. I then told them I also had Jewish ancestry. I was then called "Jew" and was asked if I could borrow a Yamaka. It didn't help that after that I sang "Havilla Nagilla"...

 

[nick n stuff]

i'm accused of hippy, emo, goth. i'm none of the above as i don't do the bud, don't cut myself to MCR (gay ass mutha fuckers) or wear makeup. however, the long hair gives some individuals the right to judge... apparently

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Your response should depend on what kind of "gay" they are. If they're only going it so they can be "INDIVIDUALZ!!" and "SPECAIL!" then till him you look at him like that because he's a massive twat, not because he is supposedly gay. If he is genuinely gay then tell him you just look at everyone like and stone him in the name of Christianity maybe (if he isn't a complete fucking moron like most teenagers) he will just drop it.

''you are a pretty looking girl, do you like to have fun?''

Ugh. D:

Maybe said person wanted to play a game of Hide and Seek.Or tell you a fun joke.

OT:I once asked if I was gay.I answered no of course.But I see where he could have gotten that from.Seeing as I was frolicing around as a joke.

I don't belive him I think he's doing it for attention...
He's a bit of a prat.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Anyone in my town that's below the age of 16 does not know the difference between an emo and someone wearing dark clothing (like say, people who like metal, that genre that's been around for decades before emo), and feel the need to vocalise their idiocy when someone wearing said attire walks past. Like me, for instance. Emos don't wear Mastodon t-shirts.

 

[RanD00M]

He was looking at me from top to bottom, I'm pretty sure I know what kind of fun he meant. :/

Maybe he was just assessing the situation.And then calculating where you could hide.You know,if you would have joined him in his game of Hide and Seek.

The OP's story reminded me of this:

Spoiler: Fan-double-tastic.

OT: Whenever I'm tired people usually interpret that as me being depressed. Kinda strang considering I'm one of the most carefree people I know.

 

[Grey_Focks]

Maybe he was checking to see if you'd fit into his clown costume?

OT: I've been told I look like a sleep deprived stoner, even though I've never smoked anything in my life, and I get a pretty normal amount of sleep. Eh, maybe I should consider getting a haircut.

 

[BoxCutter]

I was called a skin head once. I didn't do anything remotely racist the guy just assumed I was a racist because of my hair (I'm assuming thats why, I didn't really ask). I have a shaved head, and thats the only thing I could think of that would have caused the accusation.

But I am also half Japanese, and I don't know many mixed race neo nazis...

 

[DMonkey]

I get accused of being a teenager. I'm 30. I'm totally fine with it, but the constant Mclovin jokes everytime I buy smokes, and alcohol does get old.

When I was a teenager, I was accused of being a robot, which was...odd. Don't know, don't want to know.

 

[Inferno_622]

Man, I used to get this stuff all of the time in high school. I'm the youngest of a family of five and both my parents, as well as my brother and sister are white - quite pale, really. But I'm actually more olive skinned/tanned. The amount of times I've gotten a couple of racist comments at school or been mistaken for being Indian/Pakistani or whatever is absurd! Plenty of people have asked me if I was adopted too, which I'm not.

Then again, my skin is pretty weird. My feet are a pale white.

 

[Truly-A-Lie]

Depressed, hungover or on weed. It's stopped now but for about two years someone would say something about it to me every morning. These days I just get called angry and hateful when I go on rants, but that doesn't count in this topic because it's true.

 

[CrashBang]

My mate often takes the piss out of me because I love (and I mean seriously love) punk music but my parents are quite well off in comparison to his and so he says stuff like "ooh my name's Will and I'm a punk who hates the establishment even though mummy and daddy give me everything I want, ooh!" actually thinking about it that's a kinda sad thing for a 20 year old man at university to say to someone. I feel better about myself now
I've alsk been asked in the past if I'm gay cos I can be quite camp at times
