Delirium in the Cafeterium

The bell in the hallway rings. Far from being saved by the bell, you're condemned by it. Now you've got to face the worst part of the high school experience: the cafeteria. If the food doesn't kill you, the social awkwardness will.
You can see the clique structure is pretty well-defined: there's a table full of muscle-bound men and women joking and arm-wrestling; a table with dweebs in high pants and thick glasses rolling weird-shaped dice; and then there's a conclave of pompadoured cool kids scratching their initials into the last table with their switchblade knives (and combing their hair with their switchblade combs.
Presuming you made it through that last hellish sentence, where do you want to sit?
| Sit with the Jocks |
You walk toward the table of jocks, trying to puff yourself up and look as buff as possible. "Hey, guys, can I sit here?" you ask, gesturing to an empty seat.
"Whatever, dork," one of the lacrosse girls says, sliding over to cover the empty seat, "do you even lift?"
"Yeah, I pick up stuff and put it down all the time," you say. That doesn't appear to be the right answer, as they take turns pelting you with luncheon debris until you walk away.
 | You lose ?−8−20-? hit points. |
| Sit with the Nerds |
You walk up to the nerd table, but before you can sit down, one of them extends a fist.
"Really?" you ask, incredulous.
"Oh, I'm not suggesting we engage in fisticuffs, good sir," the nerd says, "I'm challenging you to a game or rock-paper-scissors-pony-python."
He explains the rules, which involve throwing hand signs that represent the rock, paper, etc., and which hand sign trumps the other.
You throw a rock, then a pony, then a python, but he beats you with paper (which covers rock), python (which bites the pony), and scissors (which snip the python's fangs). You not only get a few weak punches on the arm for losing, but you can't even find a seat at the nerd table. Weak.
| You lose 18? hit points. |
| Sit with the Greasers |
You put your tray down on the greaser's table. "Hey, man, what makes you think you can sit with us?" one of the guys says, running a comb through his pompadour.
"He's just kidding. Grab a seat," the girl next to him says.
"Wow, really? Thanks, you guys!" you say, smiling widely.
"See, that's why you can't sit here," the guy replies. "You're a total spaz."
You turn to walk away, and one of the greasers trips you on the long walk away. Stupid kids.
| You lose ?−31-? hit points. |
