49 Stories Of Kids In School Who Earned The “Weirdo” Title

Almost all of us were labeled in school, whether we liked it or not. Some were known as the nerdy kids, the sporty ones, or the artsy, crafty types. While many wore their labels like a badge of honor, others were tagged with titles that felt less flattering. One of the most common? The “weird kid.” Sometimes it was because of genuinely odd behavior, and sometimes… it was for no clear reason at all. 

But have you ever stopped to wonder why certain kids got that label? Well, people on Reddit did, and when asked, “What did the weird kid at your school do to earn that reputation?” their answers were equal parts hilarious, bizarre, and unforgettable. Keep reading to discover the most unforgettable tales of schoolyard oddballs.

He had a walking stick that he didn’t need and claimed it had a sword in it. We all believed him for about a week until he started claiming only the worthy could pull it after we tried to get him to show us.

gigashadowwolf:
This… Could have been me.
If it was, no it did not have a sword in it. What I actually said originally is that I had one that had a sword in it, not that the one I brought to school was that cane. I wasn’t dumb enough to try to bring that particular cane to school, or pretty much any public place.
Once the rumor started that I had a cane with a sword in it, I got tired of denying it so I made the joke that only the worthy could pull it out, like the sword in the stone from Arthurian legend.
I still like canes and have a small collection. I have one that has a gun in it too. I don’t really use them anymore though, unless I’ve blown out my back or something like that.

He used to sit in puddles to get sent home. Then the school realised and stopped sending him home. He carried on regardless.

itsfish20:
Had a kid do something similar in 2nd grade. He urinated his pants one day and was sent home, like a week later I was in the bathroom and he was splashing and rubbing water onto his crotch with this huge grin on his face, and then he ran out crying that he peed his pants again. He was once again sent home…Well like a week or so later he tried to do it again and the teacher caught on and so did the nurse and kids parents; when he went to the nurses office to call home, there was already a fresh pair of pants and underwear waiting in a bag from his parents just so that he could stay in school. He got called urinated pants for years after!

Bullying is still alarmingly common in many schools across the world. It shows up in multiple forms: some loud, others subtle, but all harmful. Whether it’s a shove in the hallway or being excluded during group work, the emotional impact runs deep. While awareness has increased, many incidents still go unnoticed or unaddressed. Teachers and staff may not always see the early signs. But students carry the weight of these moments for years. That’s why it’s important to hear from those who’ve worked directly with young minds. And one of them is Minakshi Pravin Walke.

We spoke to Minakshi Pravin Walke, a former principal at the Indian Education Society’s school. With decades of experience guiding students, she’s witnessed the many faces of bullying and the lasting effects it can have. “We tend to think bullying is just physical,” she began, “but it comes in many forms.” Through her years in the education system, she’s seen it in classrooms, corridors, and even on school buses. She believes early intervention is critical. “If we ignore the signs, it becomes a habit,” she said. And habits like these follow children long after school ends.

He wore a suit to school. Skaters made fun of him. He blew up one of the kids lockers.

o___olife:
Also had a suit guy ! He also had a massive beard (which obviously was crazy for a 15/16 year old). I remember my English teacher once mentioned the weirdest thing he’s ever seen in a classroom was suit guy just chilling in class combing his beard. Nicer variant of the weird formal attire school kids but weird nonetheless

He baked a cake for the class. It was nobody’s birthday or anything. The weird kid just baked a cake and brought it in. The teacher confiscated the cake and brought it to the teacher’s lounge instead of throwing it away.

Another teacher had a slice, and it had the kid’s pubic hair baked into the cake.

Never saw that kid again.

She used to have long-ish hair. One day, she decided to get a pixie cut—nothing too unusual so far. What made it strange, however, was that before cutting her hair, she had braided it into a thick, neat braid and brought it to school. That day, she tucked the braid under her beanie and went around to every teacher and acquaintance, asking them to “pull her hair.” Those who complied were met with a surprising twist: they’d end up holding the braid in their hand, while she burst out laughing, cracking up as loudly as possible.

That’s actually top quality pranking, I’d be that weird persons friend.

Physical bullying remains one of the most visible types. It includes hitting, pushing, damaging belongings, or intimidation through size or strength. “These are easier to spot,” Minakshi explained, “but still often go unreported due to fear.” Children sometimes worry they’ll be blamed or ignored. “That’s why a supportive school culture is so important,” she emphasized. “Children must feel safe to speak up.” Schools must take action when red flags appear. Silence shouldn’t be the easiest option.

He had just transferred to the school and to introduce himself he said “whats going on everyone I’m —— and I slept with my step-sister” thinking that would gain him popularity points (his step-sister) swapped schools again not long after because it was apparently true.

anonymous:
I went to school with a guy that slept with his girlfriend’s mom. The part that upset me is that instead of going to prison, she just got fired from her elementary school teaching job and went on to have a very successful career in real estate. And this guy’s girlfriend stayed with him.

Dude ate a lunch box of ground coffee everyday for lunch.

No drink. Just the powder. And this was at 9 years old.

I still sometimes wonder if he survived childhood.

jc8495:
He was being neglected by his parents and likely packed the most convenient thing he could at 9 years old. Maybe he even took ground coffee because his parents wouldn’t notice it missing or it was the only thing he had access to. Never know what someone’s home life is like behind closed doors

oompaloompa_grabber:
Yeah I used to think my friend at school was a bit odd for always bringing a full sleeve of saltines and a small jar of peanut butter for lunch every day until I started hanging out at his house and found out they were broke as hell and his parents were basically never around so he was basically living feral in there and he didn’t know how to cook a single thing so he just ate whatever was in the cupboards. Dude was a super nice headbanger metalhead kind of guy, we swapped CDs and talked about music all lunch break and you’d probably never have known that he was basically living by himself at 14-15.

Kept pooing himself in class.

Arachibutyrophobiahh:
My poor little brother has a condition where he literally cant control or feel his bowel movements. He had a rough time in elementary school and was absolutely bullied to hell for it. It didn’t help that we were severely neglected from our parents so he didn’t even understand why it was happening and how to manage it.

But bullying isn’t just physical; it’s verbal, too. “This can be even more damaging,” Minakshi noted. Teasing, mocking, taunts, and harsh labels all fall under verbal bullying. These insults chip away at a child’s self-esteem, often in ways that are harder to repair. “And the worst part?” she asked. “It’s often dismissed as harmless fun.” But there’s nothing harmless about cruelty that shapes someone’s identity. “One child’s joke can become another’s trauma.”

Always wore a different shoe on each foot, smelled terrible, and never brought a lunch. This was a Catholic school that cost a decent amount of money. Turns out he was just really, really poor. Everybody looked out for him afterward.

Another girl was 12 and pregnant, and her mom was 24. Her baby daddy then ended a 7/11 clerk and made national news cause he said he wanted to know how it felt to end someone.

Dale.

Wore only black t-shirts and camo pants every day.

Had bug eyes and was small even for a 5th grader.

At our annual required school play he chose (in front of the entire school) to play the kid who gets hypothermia.

He stumbled all over the stage stripping off his clothes because he was “so hot” and the teachers couldn’t catch him.

He fell off the stage into the kindergartners with his pants around his ankles when he finally dramatically “passed”

Legend.

Name-calling is one of the earliest forms of bullying that students face. It might sound minor, but repeated labels can stick for years. “I’ve seen children called ‘weird’ for being quiet or different,” Minakshi recalled. “That word follows them, even if their behavior is harmless.” She emphasized that such labels isolate rather than describe. 

“Children are at a very impressionable age,” Minakshi explained, “and these experiences shape how they view themselves.” She’s seen children withdraw entirely or act out in frustration. “A label like ‘weird’ may seem small, but it echoes through their self-worth,” she said. These moments may last only seconds but leave emotional imprints. “We must take them seriously,” she urged. “A kind word can uplift, just as a cruel one can destroy.” Emotional safety should never be optional in schools.

I was friends with the kid in grade school, Joe. Joe was losing his baby teeth. He had a crush on this one girl, Karla. He ran up to her in the playground to show her how loose his front teeth were. She called him gross, so he punched himself in the mouth and knocked out two of his baby teeth. He then chased Karla with his teeth clamped in his tiny, bloody fist, screaming, “how do you like me now”! He was my hero. He was sent home.

The next day he came back to school with the two teeth in a tiny box. He was later sent home for shooting the teeth through a straw at things during class. He would retrieve the teeth, rinse, repeat. What a menace!

He is now a MD, happily married, but not to Karla.

He was into anime when that was very much seen as for losers. He always wore a Sailor Moon shirt.

During a middle school dance, the last song of the night was My Heart Will Go On, which I guess was his favorite song, and he started slow dancing with his arms around an imaginary partner.

I hope he’s had a good life.

“Imagine being called weird by your own classmates every day,” she said. “It makes children question what’s wrong with them.” In her years as a principal, she watched confident students grow quiet and guarded. “They stop raising their hands in class,” she added. “They hesitate to share ideas or be themselves.” In trying to avoid attention, they also lose their voice. “It’s heartbreaking,” she admitted. “And often, it’s preventable with early guidance.”

Theatre kid who wore a bowler hat all day every day for a year. Dressed and styled his hair like an emo kid, but would get REALLY mad if you called him an emo kid because he hated that music.

“They begin to doubt everything,” Minakshi continued. “Why did my friend stop talking to me? Did I say something wrong?” This constant self-questioning steals their focus from learning and growth. Many start changing themselves just to fit in. “They try harder to be liked, to not stand out,” she noted. And in that process, they suppress their identity. “That’s not development; it’s survival,” she said. “And that’s no way to grow up.”

“An insult in class feels like the end of the world.” Minakshi stressed how such small incidents can lead to long-term insecurity. “It affects their performance, their social skills, their self-belief.” She believes that mental health support should be normalized in schools. “Even one conversation can change how a child sees themselves.” Schools must be more than academic centers; they must be safe spaces.

I attended a special education school that welcomed kids with various challenges, from mild dyslexia to severe mental illness. Overall, it was a positive experience – small classes, attentive teachers, and just regular kids being kids despite our different needs.

But there was one classmate I’ll never forget.

He appeared in our grade suddenly one day and immediately stood out with his unique behavior. Some of his memorable antics included:

* Sitting completely upside down in his chair during class (which the teacher oddly never addressed)
* Creating an elaborate artwork using correction fluid (Tipp-Ex) on the principal’s window – in full view of the entire school during recess

He only stayed at our school briefly. Years later, I was surprised to spot him on television. He was getting a haircut and having a rather strange conversation with the barber.

Looking back, I wonder what became of him.

Ooh, I got a doozy:

So lots of “the weird kid”s over the years but I sat next to a kid in computer science in like 10th grade who was congenial enough, but his story’s plot just thickened, and thickened and thickened over the years. He was a stocky redhead kid with long hair that made me think of a lion’s mane. He was usually pretty reserved, but easy to irritate and on the one or two occassions he got made fun of enough to explode he started screaming about his condition called “blood-vision” where he loses all control and tears apart everyone around him. When people would laugh at him he’d storm out saying it was for everyone’s protection.

I kinda felt bad for the guy. I was a semi-popular dude and tried to extend a helping hand by asking him questions about things he was into, and about his “condition”. He said it was a congenital defect that plagued him all his life, and that it was passed down from his mom. But that *it helped him with his duties as a werewolf hunter*. I dialed back on the questions and kept an arms length, but I really was careful about not infuriating the dude off because this was post-Columbine and he had that thousand-yard stare.

Anyway, after that semester I didn’t see much of him (we’d nod politely in the hallway), but I ended up in a class with his goth sister, and- wouldn’t you know it- she was a vampire hunter. I didn’t get close with her but I remember overhearing her go into great detail about her sacred duties and how she was the only one keeping everyone safe.

Then.. one day, I’m doing the office assistant extra-curricular thing (and the office has glass walls all around) and commotion starts outside. People are gathering around and I can’t see who’s in the middle so I go to see if I can scope it out but the AP told me to sit still and locked the door from the inside. I eventually see that the dude was getting wailed on by some other kid and the sister was on the side yelling with her eyes closed (presumably casting spells).

Security there, kids hauled off to their respective offices, calamity dies down. And then, I *kid you not*, their dad shows up for him in a *wizard cloak and weird hat*. He had a shortish grey beard and walked with a weird gaunt. I only saw him for a second from my AP’s office but I wasn’t the only one and we all talked about it for weeks.

I don’t remember if that’s the last time I saw him or her, but shortly after they were both gone from the school. I always felt bad wondering how awful their childhoods and subsequent lives must have turned out being raised by that probable lunatic.

“That’s why I never allowed name-calling in my classrooms,” she said firmly. “You praise children for effort, not perfection. You encourage them to improve, not shame them.” Labeling closes doors and stunts confidence. Minakshi insisted that teachers have the power to set the tone. “The classroom culture starts with us,” she said. “We can model respect in every interaction.” A safe classroom can change a child’s entire learning experience.

He would suck on his markers and get his all face blue.

He used to aim his farts in anyone sit behind him in class.

He stalked a friend of mine for over a year.

He always made comments very disturbing during class, as that a girl in class had nice breasts (we were about 10yo.).

A few years ago I found out he became a doctor… a psychiatrist.

“Young minds need positivity to flourish,” Minakshi emphasized. She encouraged teachers and parents to foster empathy. “When kindness becomes habit, children carry it beyond the school gate.” She believes discipline and compassion must go hand in hand. “It’s not just about enforcing rules, it’s about nurturing values,” she said. “That’s how we raise better citizens.” And it all begins with how we treat one another in school.

In conclusion, Minakshi Pravin Walke reminds us that bullying, no matter how minor it seems, can leave lifelong scars. But with awareness, compassion, and consistent boundaries, schools can prevent this. “Let’s raise children who don’t feel ashamed of who they are,” she said.

She had neurodivergence issues. A bunch of other girls had a bulletin board outside the classroom where they always hung out, and posted notes and crude drawings making fun of how other people, including her, dressed and acted. Like Facebook bullying but before social media was invented.

The school turned a blind eye to this, until one day she took a lighter and set the board on fire. Then the school suddenly cared a lot and she was expelled.

Sonichu:
This form of bullying is both ahead of and behind it’s time.
It absolutely mirrors cyberbullying on social media but I’d also expect this stuff scrawled on a wall in ancient Rome:

We had a kid who would march up and down the halls, yelling military marching cadences. He would have his iPod in, and apparently, all that was on there were marching cadences. He also never talked to anyone.

Every day all day, before class.. marching. Going from class to class.. marching. After school to the bus.. marching.

All while yelling those cadences. Not saying/singing them. Yelling.

We were all convinced he was going to shoot up the school.

Well, maybe these posts can serve as a wake-up call for all of us: parents, teachers, and school communities. Labels might seem harmless, but they can leave lasting scars, especially on young minds. Have you ever been labeled or called something in school? How did it make you feel back then and does it still stay with you today? Share your experience in the comments. Your story might just help someone feel a little less alone.

It was high school

He was a nerd but not a fun one.

He wrote a movie and was carrying the script around the school to show to teachers.

He wrote his own autobiography where he wrote in third person and called himslf “an artist”.

His mother was choosing who can come to his birthday. And it was high school – so parties meant beer booze and second base.
Nobody came to his birthday.

He is successful, awarded historical book writer.

Ours was a kid who liked to take his shirt off and punching a hole in the can and chugging it on our school bus like he was at a frat party. Years later, I took a job as a cook in a cafeteria. My manager said he hoped I stayed longer than the last guy who liked celebrating the weekend by slamming back sodas after poking a hole in them with a kitchen knife. Incredulously, I asked the guy’s name. Yep, it was the Pepsi Party Animal himself. Some people never change.

14 year old kid put alligator clips on the end of two wires, attached them to his shirt, then jammed both wires into an electrical outlet during science class.

I’ll never forget time slowing down during that moment. I saw two sparks slowly travel up the wire over the course of about five seconds. I remember the panic on his face as the sparks were approaching. The panic on the teacher’s face when he saw it.

The sparks hit the kid and all the lights went out in the building momentarily. The lights flickered a few times and the kid dropped to the floor.

The kid managed to rip the clips off of himself and out of the sockets. He then stood up and looked at the teacher terrified, mainly because he thought he was gonna on in trouble.

The kid went to hospital and was absolutely fine.

But yeah… Madlad.

Had ringworm for a really long time. Lived with older grandparents who didn’t really understand how to treat it. We were friendly before that but the teachers had us all sit further from him and avoid touching him bc they didn’t want it to spread like crazy, and that just turned him into an outcast and we started to grow apart. I think one of the teachers finally had to make a house visit and eventually the ringworm cleared up but by then the damage was done and worse rumors spread. I still think about him often. Last I heard he wrote a children’s book about uplifting kids who are different. I hope he’s doing well.

My elementary school offered Bosco sticks for lunch sometimes. If you don’t know what those are, it’s a cheap and highly processed bread stick filled with mozzarella cheese. This cheese was VERY stringy, you could probably get a few feet of stretch if you really tried.

One day, the weird kid pulled out the mozzarella, swallowed it (nearly) whole. He hung onto the end, and pulled it back out.

I couldn’t finish my lunch, I was so grossed out.

Ronnie had always been a weird kid. He was adopted after supposedly a pretty rough childhood, and in hindsight was just acting out. He was basically the token bully/bad kid all through my elementary school years. Then came 6th grade.

Mrs. Shegogg kept several doves in cages as class pets. One morning we’re all lined up to leave homeroom and go to our classes, and Ronnie is unfortunately right next to one of the dove cages.

Dude opens the cage, grabs the bird, and completely skewers this poor bird with a pencil. Feathers and blood everywhere as the bird flops, or attempts to flop as well as you can with your wings are pinned to your body with the pencil that is stuck through you. Mrs. Shegogg is in tears, and the rest of us are half in shock and half giggling at the absurdity.

In hindsight, I’m surprised he never went columbine on us. But today he’s actually fairly well adjusted and living a blue collar life.

Idk about the Weirdest, but there was a girl at my school who wore cat ears, Every. Single. Day.
Then she started this guy and after a month or so they both wore the cat ears. During every school event she had em, i think even in graduation. I just never understood why.
