#1. Name a stereotypical group which someone might place you into.
#2. Name the things about you that support the stereotype.
#3. Name the things about you that break the stereotype.
For example:
1. Artist.
2. I carry a sketchbook everywhere, 90% of my wardrobe is black, and I talk
about art a lot.
3. I don’t live in an abandoned loft, I hate pretension, and I mostly
detest wine.
Ps. You can recycle someone else’s stereotype, as long as you can come up
with different reasons.

Nerd.
1)I carry in my head an insane amout of useless (and not so useless)
information ranging from archaeology (spelled?), science, geology, obscure
trivia, and how and when and what will happen when we plunge ourselves into
another ice age. I also am addicted to the science, history, learning, and
discovery channels on cable, and I've so far got half way through steven
hawkings book on the creation of life. Oh, and I LOVE WAX MUSEUMS.
2)I'm horrible at math and doing actual chemistry. I've nearly lost
eyebrows before.

1. Loner
2. I can usually be found alone, reading or listening to music. If I'm in
a public place, I'm usually in the most secluded, unused area available.
3. I actually like people and enjoy their company; I'm just really
uncomfortable around strangers.

1. Trenchcoat mafia
2. Black knee-length coat of trenchiness. Rather black wardrobe. Small
circle of close friends. Black leather gloves probably don't help
either.
3. I'm not a hate-filled, homicidal maniac (I can count all the people in
this world that I actually hate on one hand). I am deeply offended by
racism. I like medeval stuff, but that about does it for my weaponry
interests.

1) Computer Geek
2) I love my laptop, I'm going to study computer science at uni, I like
programming and hand coding HTML, I *must* be on my laptop at least once a
day, else I get withdrawal symptoms.
3) I don't like gaming, I don't have inch-thick glasses, and I do spend an
insane amount of time in pubs or clubs.

1- Political/Debate geek
2- I am on the debate team. I know enough about current events to talk
intelligently about them. I can talk about anything, when given the
challenge, for any length of time. I wear business suits as often, if not
more often than I do other clothes.
3- I know incredibly little about politics. Ask me if I'm democrat or
republican, I answer with a few seconds of a blank stare, and then answer
that you'd have to ask me about specific issues. I can't name every
candidate for office off the top of my head. I don't go to political
conventions. I don't want to be president someday.

3. I regularly get laid.

1. Depressed poet
2. I write a lot of poetry and get it published and posted in a lot of
places, listen to music about death, wear all black (or black and crimson)
whenever I feel like it (some weeks more often than others), read Byron
3. I can be very happy, sometimes very peppy, I get along with mostly
everyone, am a teacher's pet, am not usually depressed (though I sometimes
act it), I never disguise what I feel- if I'm sad, I act sad- I don't
pretend I'm happy and I don't try to get attention.

1. Heartless bitch
2. I have been called a heartless bitch to my face by a couple of people,
probably due to the fact that I make snide comments to my friends and
family, even when I know it will upset them, I tell jokes and stories that
make people uncomfortable, and the last time I made someone cry, I laughed
at them, and moved on felling better about myself.
3. I am, in fact, a complete and utter weenie. When I see kids that are
upset, and I can't make them feel better, I cry. When I hear that my cat is
going nuts because I'm not there, I feel bad. I get completely torn up
inside when bad stuff happens to the people I love.

1. Art student
2. I go to school in New York City. Most of my clothes are covered in
paint, and I get surfaces on which to work by cardboard boxes and other
garbage off the streets. I spend all my free time at galleries and have no
job.
3. I do not stay up and drink coffee all night, I take care of my
appearance and have nice clothes. I make sure I eat healthy foods. I am
extremely silly at times, and I love to smile. I love other student work,
even when it is competing against my own.

1.)eccentric Artist
2.)I where what I want, When I want, Where I want. Be it dresses, tie-die
overalls (which I tiedied myself) A mirrage of colors, or all black, one of
2 pairs of shoes that I own. to baggy pants whose hems have become so ruddy
that I wonder how many more times I can wear them before they split all the
way up to my ass, to shirts that sometimes of the content of a bitchy cat
with the words "i have pms and a hand gun anyquestions" I draw and paint
where or when I have the gumption. I carry around odd things in my pockets
and do sketches with broken pens I find in the parking lot. I find myself
looking at different parts of people which I consider drawing later.
I got fired from my job at a healthfood store for being a flakey
Artist....
3.)At least I haven't cut off my ear as Van Gough and I'm for the most
part, Happy a good portion of the time.
