At my high school, if one wanted to increase her popularity, she blew the football team.

Those magazines had no concept of reality. The more I look back,the more I wonder if the people who write for them even went to high school. I always loved the "How to Get Him to Like You" lists, quizzes, etc. because although I admittedly didn't try all that hard, I could tell that none of that **** would work.
