*HUGS* to you Fiona. But good for you for being able to ignore it =) Even

though I'm NC with nada, I have a hard time ignoring that. Some of her B.S.

I can, but that one I think really hit deep. Not to mention it wasn't just

her. My step dad used to make fun of me (in like a joking way but I was all

ready so wounded when he came along that it just did more damage than good)

and I was FOREVER teased throughout elementary & high school for being

" ugly/funny looking/weird/etc " by other kids.

When I was probably around 10, one little snotty boy told me " you look like

you fell off a roller coaster flat onto your face " .

Thanks kiddo. F*** you too.
