Which table am I supposed to sit at?

In response to the HS metaphor going around just now, I went and read this post and laughed myself silly.

My big problem is....where am I supposed to sit, exactly?

A few people have suggested I should go sit with the SteamPunk kids, due to the time period in which I set a lot of my work, but really! I don't have a black leather corset...and if I did, I wouldn't wear it to school. I'll never fit in! Hmmmph!

Perhaps over with the history geeks? Novik might be nice to talk to...
The romance table? Bujold and Asaro are pretty cool, though, and probably don't want to talk to an associate HS student like me....

Where did Martha Wells go sit? Caroline Stevermer? They're nice. Anyone seen Teresa Edgerton? Susan Dexter? Are they at school here?

Yeah, I read that post and loffed a little, and then decided that if Jay is a newcomer then I am the kid being homeschooled...

Man, me too....
It's scary if he and [livejournal.com profile] matociquala feel that way.

I'm all for cutting class, myself.
