<p>I was sitting in biology lecture in the front rowww, and I was eating a sucker, and I was joyfully swaying it back and forth across my tongue and I don't know what happened, but the sucker was gone!! I was frantically looking for it, but then I saw a big pink sucker in front of my face and I came to a painful conclusion:</p>
<p>It was stuck in my hair.</p>
<p>I started pulling but it wouldn't come off, and I finally swung my hair back and it became even more tangled!! The people behind me were snickering, and when I turned around to shush them, the sucker came in contact with hair on the other side of my head and got stuck there too.</p>
<p>So I looked sooooooo stupid and I had to discretely sneak out of lecture and walk up the aisle with a big honkin' SUCKER dangling from my hair. Everyone was pointing and giggling and I'm so absolutely mortified!!</p>
<p>I'm terrified to go back to that class on Friday. Do you think people will remember this or hold a reputation to me as "the girl who got a sucker stuck in her hair?"</p>
<p>I'm seriously considering transferring at semester because this killed my reputation. </p>
<p>I need advice or something, helpp. How can I make a joke out of it or somethinggg to defend me?</p>
<p>Honestly, I think people will get over it. Something new will happen this weekend and they’ll have other things to talk about. Don’t worry about class on friday, and if anyone brings it up just laugh it off. I know it’s embarrassing, but it’s probably a bigger deal to you than to them! You remember it cuz you were so embarrassed, but they probably won’t. So don’t worry. :)</p>
<p>Relax. This did not ruin your reputation. Your reputation stands exactly as it was before this incident. Everyone (and I don’t exclude myself from this) has a tendency to overreact and think a spotlight is on them. No one notices you as much as you think they do. Think about it in reverse. If you saw the same thing happen to another girl in your class, you’d probably snicker a bit, because it’s an interesting turn of events in a lecture, but you’d forget about it the next day. Getting a sucker stuck in your hair is no mark of you as an individual, so people certainly won’t judge you, let alone brand you “the girl who got a sucker stuck in her hair.”</p>
<p>You need to learn how to handle these kinds of events, though. If you’re freaking out this much over a relatively small incident, you need to prepare yourself for possible bigger incidents. How you handle stressful events is a sign of maturity… and I’m not saying you’re necessarily immature or don’t handle other things well, I’m just saying that you need to let things like this go. People don’t care that you got something stuck in your hair.</p>
<p>I’m sorry but I laughed pretty hard at that.</p>
<p>You really need to chill. Wanting to transfer because you got embarrassed in one class when the semester is about to be over anyway is a bit extreme, don’t you think? </p>
<p>Besides, I’ve done a ton more embarrassing things than that when there were MONTHS of school left and I’ve made it three years. And your reputation? Please. If it’s a huge bio lecture I wouldn’t be surprised if half the class didn’t even know your name let alone cared about your reputation.</p>
<p>It’s college, and nobody really cares. We all have these moments, and nobody will judge you for such an incident. In fact, to be completely honest, my first impression of you based on that story was something among the lines of: hmm, you must like candy – I like candy too, therefore, you must be a fun person to be around.</p>
<p>Seriously, no one cares about your embarrassing moment. It was something to laugh about for a minute and then forget about. Aren’t there around 40,000 people at UW? It’s nearly impossible to have an overarching “reputation” at a school that size. You’re completely overreacting. Don’t transfer. That would be silly.</p>
<p>LOL, whatever. This is college, not high school. If the lecture is big enough no one will even remember who you are, and even if it’s not, people will find something new to talk about in a week.</p>
<p>Haha, how is your life so insanely full of drama? I’m amazed you can get through even a single week without having at least one major social crisis.</p>
<p>Probably ■■■■■ because a college girl can’t suck on a sucker without being called a slut by the rest of the school and sitting in the front row is too obvious.</p>
<p>The way it’s written screams ■■■■■ to me, but idk, I’ve never heard anyone use “sucker” who wasn’t born before the moon landing.</p>
<p>“a big honkin’ SUCKER”</p>
<p>“joyfully swaying it back and forth across my tongue”</p>
<p>Not to mention the exaggerated extra letters at the end of words, which no self-respecting person should use unless they wanna come across as a ditzy fool. </p>
<p>Plus her/his/its other posts are weird too, e.g. asking if you’d buy a pack of smokes for your parents if they asked you to.</p>
<p>And really,</p>
<p>"I’m seriously considering transferring at semester because this killed my reputation. "</p>
<p>I somehow doubt that anyone would consider transferring because they got a “sucker” in their hair.</p>
<p>Finally, I still don’t get how you can get it in your hair without being aware of it unless you’re lapping it up like a hungry dog.</p>
<p>I think “sucker” is used more commonly in different regions. A lot of people say it in northern California. I think that saying “lollipop” is way more ridiculous.</p>
