I Hate Labels.
I absolutely hate when people say that someone is a nerd or a weirdo. Yes I admit that I am a Nerd but it's also known as a Nerdfighter and we are made of awesome. Duh.
But back to the subject.
Dictionary.com defines labels as:
a short word or phrase descriptive of a person, group, intellectual movement, etc.
a word or phrase indicating that what follows belongs in a particular category or classification
Urban Dictionary defines label as:
Something you put on jars. Not on people
A title given to someone who is blatently trying to fit in with one of the stereotypical high school "cliques". usually the label is justifiable though, since they are trying to fit in with other people who are obviously confused about who they really are.
and now my personal Fav:
| 1. (noun) Something teenagers claim to hate but quickly slap on themselves then advertised to other teens who are too busy contemplating themselves to care about anyone else. 2. (verb) The act of labelling someone, usually when the labelled doesn't want to be labelled. 1. UGH! I HATE labels, SO BAD. Everyone calls me a prep!! AHH!! Oh, by the way! Check out me new bracelet! I am so damn original!! 2. Don't you label ME!! How dare you!! The people at Urban Dictionary make a alot of sense. It just seems that because someone likes a specific thing (i.e. vampires, Doctor Who, writing,Math, or even Steven Colbert), others will automatically say that that one person is obsessed with it. It's time that those narrow headed idiots realize that everyone has something called a personality. Thats why you see so many people who wear different clothing, like different music, and lead different types of life. They have jobs either they enjoy or hate. But they have a life that they created and then once again the narrow minded idiots of life label them something like someone who doesn't have the best life because of some bad mistakes is called a loser and will never make something of themselves. THAT IS WHERE YOU ARE WRONG. Anyone can be anything and they will be proud. SO knock it off and leave them alone. Then you have High School and Middle school where this thing called a clique comes into light. Urgh. I have to deal with these things daily and I'll tell you all one thing and that is I'm not exactly Miss Popularity. I'm friendly with most people in my school and then I have people that I just love. But then I see groups with a bunch of girls who gossip and shop at expensive stores and I'm left dumbfounded. Sigh.. Tell me what you think about labels in the comments. Peace out -Bridge | ||
