I had to google what "egg heads" means.

I went first to a sorta small public high school. Then an even smaller private one. In the public, I never really noticed "the jocks" behavior much beyond who picked kids last for gym sports, and yelled loudest at those who sucked at them. [I was often picked about last, because I refused to participate...once getting an F.] There were girls who were bullies, but never thought of them as jocks, per se. The very biggest female "jock" wasn't really so bad. I just thought of the mean people as "mean", without labeling in other ways. I was always an outcast at my public school, for various reasons. I was surely in better shape than most all in my class, but intensive ballet, not sports. [Long story.] As for the private school, it was very liberal. I don't recall many students being against each other. Most there were misfits. As for the "intellectuals", I saw a bit more of that at the public school. At the private...Was I an intellectual? Never thought of myself as one, yet maybe??? I was first in the teeny class, but didn't try to be and didn't think I should've been, even refusing the recognition. I don't recall ever picking fights with anyone. I was mostly a pacifist.

How many "best friends" have you had in your life?
