8. The Player

The Player is sometimes the Bad Boy as well, but there are times when this stereotype has traits a Bad Boy wouldn't necassarily have. This character, usually the quarterback or a jock, has more sexual experience than a fucking porn star. He somehow manages to gain the teachers' love, and even though never studies, always gets perfect grades. He has more abs than Taylor Lautner and Colton Haynes combined, and, obviously, is a player. Apparently his charm has the girls dropping to their knees and singing KUMBAYAAAAA MY LOOORD! KUMBAYAAAAA!

Anyway, the protagonist is usually the girl who O EM GEE!!!!!!! doesn't fall for him. And then the guy makes it his life mission to get her to fall in love with him.

In other scenarios, people just downright copy John Tucker Must Die. I think we're all familiar with that movie. The girl tries to break the heartbreaker's heart blah blah blah bullshit.

And I'm just sitting there like holy shit. That is so fucking original.
