What if things were reversed?

[The Stonker]

Okay I was thinking for a moment and what would happen if everything went into reverse?
Party kids would be nerds and it would be considered "strange" to do all the "normal" stuff kids do today.
So think about it if nerds where the majority and the chavs minority what would happen? I'm imaginig thousands of people talking about Star trek and then bullying the "cool people" which wouldn't be.

So think about it for a while.

Nerds are the majority.

Man. They'd play Gojira and Darkthrone and shit on the radio.
Epic.
Then again, it'd be kinda shit, too.

Ask me again in 10 years and Ill show you this post.

It would be kinda odd to me. But at the same time, if that was the normal thing, that would probably be all we ever knew in the first place. So we might not know there was a difference. Kinda depends on how the reverse happens though.

I dunno i wouldn't really care because I'm not much of a social person outside of the three to four people i hang out with.

If everything where reversed I'd actually care to post a decent comment here.

Well gaming would be way more accepted, but when I want to go oustide I'd be afraid of doing it... of course I am still afraid to go outside...why does the sun have to be so bright?

That WOULD be interesting. I would love to see the least popular kids in my school become instantly popular, it would be extremely funny.

I've often thought of this 'reverse' world, however if you think about it everything would in theory be the same. Take for example the situation of the male.

The male in opposite world would have all of the stereotypes of the woman, and at the same time would look like a woman because they'd be the opposite of a man. Furthermore all of the aspects of men, i.e. The fact that they statistically earn more, would be reversed. So in fact the opposite world would be the exact same.

Edit: Furthermore, and to relate it to what you said. If it was all of a sudden considered normal to do these weird things the entire concept of what people considered *normal* would be reversed too so it would revert back.

If things were reversed... I honestly wouldn't care. I'm not being an angsty shit head, I just wouldn't care.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and guess that this is the fantasy of someone who's sick of people picking on him because he's a supposed nerd? If that's the case, wishful thinking isn't going to do you much good. My suggestion? Don't stop being who you are just because some people don't like that. Be more confident, and find a group of "cool" people that are more likable than the rest. Hang out with them. I'm a total nerd, and yet I'm still considered "cool" because I'm confident, and I have "cool" friends. Hell, you might end up being cooler than your "cool" friends, because you've got the guts to be different and not be ashamed of it. I'm one of the only kids at my high school who doesn't do drugs/alcohol, and I've gotten respect for it. Plus, if you're any kind of nerd, you should be smarter than most of the "cool" people. Don't be ashamed of that, and don't be afraid to talk down to some people. (Make sure these people are your friends, and they know you're messing with them, though.)

I'm going to burn my fingers off now, because I typed "cool" too many times...

Haha oh no not at all I was just thinking about this because if the social pyramid would be reversed wouldn't we just be as much of assholes as they are?

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Um... If things were reversed, then wouldn't we all suddenly not be nerds? Making us still a counter-culture minority?
Also, the escapist would be one of the deepest, darkest, foulest places on the internet, 4chan would be making the world a considerably better place, the USA would be a rising economic power competing with the African super-nation, facebook would be empty... It would be an odd place.
