Also, I think kids get picked on if they are going to get picked on -- then the pickers-on choose what to make fun of.
This. Never got picked on for my name.
We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't think I've met a Susan (or any variation of) who is under 35 years old.
I have pretty glittery red nails and toes. They make me quite happy. And it was good to catch up with Nicole.

My husband, Michael, most common boy's name for 40 years running, got picked on for his name, so yeah, some kids just get picked on.
He grew up to be 6'6" and have a PhD, so he showed them!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ooo! 125? (The olive.)
Sorry, been busy today, but yes Plei. Cass was kind enough to send me a swatch. So purty. Sadly they were sold out of the holos, but I got a sparkly (I think the right term is flaky?) opalescent purple/blue and a forest green.
Jesse, I haven't read the article, but I will. That's one of my greatest fears.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just wait until you have some time to cry. :(

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I cried :(
I had a weird name AND was made fun of a lot, but there wasn't much you could do with "Nadine". Although my BF called me "Moo", which started because he called me "Nay" which was corrupted to "Neigh" which was corrupted to "Moo".
Also, this brings me to the point that what I am missing in my life is a gay best friend, because I had one from 5th grade on until after college.

Sue, that's fantastic! Wanna come do my stairs?
There's a reason mine are still carpeted.

Yeah, I made use of the kleenex box.
I was able to track down a contact point (her wife) for my old friend who was also neighbor's friend and coworker. Hopefully it is still active and will be passed along. Google also revealed they have two kids, a boy and a girl. Aww.

Mine just weren't really redone when they did the floors (probably resealed, but not sanded or restained.) Plus the accidental damage I've done doing the railing. Gah, I don't think I'm going to make much progress on that before the new year. I need to do research, buy tools, and figure out how to do it right. And I'm travelling and xmas shopping and weddinging, so less time for it. And I need to bring in my outside table, wash it down, restain some bits and linseed oil it. Maybe this week.
