I haven't felt this excluded since highschool. I've learned not to care about everyone else's little social circles in the world. Soon there will be a local, small "event" for a Magic thing that I'm going to be excluded from. There are two conditions that make this one suck. 1.) I really want to do it. 2.) I'm being excluded because of supposed skill level. Those are the real bummers. [i]But I am good enough! Really! They don't know![/i] But I am good enough tho. I place ALL THE TIME and win plenty. Fuck. Part of me is starting to want to be excluded so that I can try to beat them at the next open event out of spite.
