So I'm doing this whole research project on popularity, cliques, pressures to fit in, a whole Odd Girl Out kind of paper, looking at popularity from both ends of the spectrum. I have alot of research all ready, but I want others opinions in my project. So what thoughts, words, or images even, come to mind when you hear the word popularity? Does it make you supress a shudder, or do you imagine the perfect blond haired blue eyed rich girl of your dreams. Since this is for a school paper, please dont be vulgar, and I'd appreciate it if you'd include your age and gender. Thanks.

When someone is spelling out a word or giving someone a Part Number or VIN Number on the phone that contains letters...

For example:
Break

B as in Boy
R
E as in Edward
A as in Apple
K

Part #VB96K

V as in...
B as in boy

Does this have a specific name, this technique? Are their certain words you are supposed to use when doing this or does it matter what words you use, just as long as the person on the other line understands what word you are saying?
