My father always said, it takes more energy to be nasty than nice. Proof - couple people came up to me at our 40th class reunion last yr. Thanked me for being one of the very few people that was nice to them and bothered to talk. Even though it wasn't often. They wished they had been more popular or liked. Felt like a real creep for not talking to them more. Just sayin. I had a great time all 12 grades, they - not so much. Class of 140 students, so you know how small that was.
