This is an awesome little town that I have been thinking of moving to. Life in the city has lost its luster for me. And I'm familiar with the area also. My sister and brother-in-law are moving up that way also.

Anyway, this girls is cute and I can't imagine why she would be considered an outcast. This town gave all these kids a big middle finger salute for their cruelty.

I think it would be awesome if some famed, very attractive actor came to be her escort. Talk about a slap in the face to all the little bitches who tried to humiliate her.

I hope the little scumbags who planned the prank are having a good circular "party".

Hell, someone pays for my ticket I'll come over and dance with her

Good for her for standing up to those bitches. Get 'em girl

Fantastic story.

Jealous, probably.
High school girl-politics is very complicated.
If she weren't cute, she'd probably just be ignored. She'd be off the radar. She wouldn't exist.
Many times when girls are actively bullied by other girls, there's an element of jealousy or competitiveness involved.

I read that this girl Whitney has an "alternative" style, and that's probably the issue. In a small town, kids who don't conform to the status quo are often bullied.
None of which explains why she'd even want to be part of the homecoming court, if she's so "alternative". The best revenge would've been if she just told them all to fvck off, that she wanted no part of their lame conformist b.s. and had better things to do.
Clearly, though, she did not.

Kids shouldn't adopt alternative styles and try to set themselves apart as iconoclasts if, at heart, what they really want is to be part of things and fit in with the popular crowd. That seems self-evident.

I applaud the town. Very classy.
