    My friend went to a school where anyone who didn't have named brands got singled out and bullied as a poor kid.

    I had the opposite experience. I came from a poor area and there wasn't enough money for food, never mind "brands". Most of the kids at school were in the same boat. If a new kid came into our school wearing Nikes, the Nikes didn't last the day and the kid spent lunchtime picking up his teeth with a broken arm.

      Where did you go to school? Somalia?
      He would really get his arm broken and his teeth smashed in for wearing that? No warning or anything?

        lol, nah, "picking up your teeth with a broken arm" is just a saying here. A few people got roughed up (but didn't lose teeth). However, one boy did lose an eye because a girl knocked him to the ground and stuck her heel in his face. That one isn't a saying. That one happened during, of all things, a cooking lesson.
