I always encourage people to not care what bullies, and other unintelligent , arrogant jerks think about them. To be an individual..that life is too short to go around acting fake, and doing things just to make the "bully" happy. Sure for children, bullies can suck...but that is because alot of them are not raised to understand how to deal with people like that, and how to have pride in themselves. Usually bullies are extremely insecure themselves. Even if actions were taken to prevent yourself from being a target, there is always someone that will find SOMETHING about you to pick on...just gotta learn how to brush it off, and remain an individual.
