What Were You Made Fun of For?

Come on, everybody got made fun of in school for something.

Keith calling Chaz Bono 'it' reminded me that I was called 'it' in middle school because I was really really odd, and fat and I dressed funny. I was also made fun of for being fat, but 'it' was totally the worst.

I don't remember ever really being openly ridiculed growing up, but Josh Valencia did call me 'Jiggly Puff' a few times in middle school because I was short. and cute. and fat.

Occasionally, people would throw things at me because they knew I couldn't see who was doing it. you have no idea how frustrating that was. I would've preferred some one calling me names. At least the you get a chance to talk shit back to them.

I was made fun of because I have a distinctive walk. I can't help that my hips are deformed.

The only thing that comes to mind from russian elementary school days was someone made fun of my knit hat because I didn't have a russian fur hat.

When I came to US in 6th grade, I spoke no English, so I can only assume the two guys in front of me were making fun of me. I didn't understand them though, so it made no difference.

Later on in 7th grade through highschool, some people just called me a russian spy, cosmonaut, communist, KGB, etc. But it wasn't malicious and I never got offended, it just got old.

I went to Catholic school until the 4th grade. I was so shy and the nuns were so mean. I was too embarrassed to raise my hand and publicly say that I had to use the restroom, that I peed myself in 3rd grade. I was made fun of for a whole year until my parents finally put me in public school. Not only was I made fun of, but the teachers also ridicule me after that. Fuck Nuns!!

I never really got made fun of because I always kept to myself in class or slept.

Not a thing. Was never teased, bullied, or picked on; I never got the luxury of a bully's face to my face or an entire room laughing at me. I guess I lucked out.

The 7th grade boys named me the head of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee. Assholes.

I was picked on a lot for being fat and for being a bit of a weird farm-boy-nerd combination. and people also made fun of my middle name. A few kids tried to bully me, but I would usually be able to over power anyone that tried to pick a fight with me

the closest I ever got to an actual fight was a guy started punching me, I threw him to the ground, got him in side control, took his back and choked him out. He'd wake up, start punching, I'd choke him out again. and repeat.

Oh the joys of boy scouts.
