Things we do to fit in"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."
What have you done to fit in?

Not me, but a friend...For the sake of conversation, let's call him Tithead. He was well known as one of the weird kids in school... which I suppose made me one of the weird kids too, since I was friends with him.
Anyhow.
One of the popular kids thought it'd be funny to dare Tithead to roll up the contents of a tea bag in a Rizla and smoke it. In class. In front of the teacher. He did. Upon recovering in the medical room after an asthma attack, he was promptly marched to the headteacher who gave him a suspension for his stupidity. I haven't seen him for many a year but as far as I could tell he never gained the popularity he sought.
As for me, I never bothered much. Started smoking when I was 13 and gave up two years later. 's about all.
