31. My dad told me to deal with bullies a little differently.
Edited on Mon Oct-30-06 09:57 AM by Marr
He told me to hit them as hard as I could, in the nose. Then, time permitting, hit them again. And again. "You may get beat up, you may not", he said, "but they won't bully you again".

And he was right. Ignoring bullies doesn't work. They don't want attention, they want to hurt someone that can't hurt them back.

Still, I understand her point. Michael J Fox has made Limbaugh look like an even bigger ass than usual by refusing to engage him on his level. But you know- that doesn't mean that the rest of us should ignore his shit.
