About This Quiz

Remember "The Breakfast Club?" It's endured for years as one of the ultimate high school movies because it was so adept at trying to speak to all the different kinds of kids who would be watching it. Like it or not, when you go to high school, people lump you into specific categories. In the movie, the character of Brian fully embraces that at the end and even labels every one of the characters - a brain, an athlete, a basket case, a princess and a criminal. Of course, other movies have expanded on those themes and given us class clowns, burnouts, art kids, chess club nerds, band geeks, emo kids and probably 1,001 others. Sometimes they cross from one stereotype to another, and sometimes they evolve in and out. Whatever the case, they're hard to escape.

Fact is, people want to fit in somewhere in life, and even those who don't end up getting lumped in with the other people who don't fit. For better or worse, and often it can be worse, those stereotypes never seem to want to go away. Since that's the case, we may as well embrace the whole thing for a moment here. Tell us a bit about yourself, and we'll tell you just what stereotype you got stuck with. You know, if you feel like it. For real though, take the quiz.
