    My mom did too, and I listened as well. I'm kinda glad I did though, there were times when I could have faught back in such situations, but I got out of it using wit. Most bullies won't stick around if you're insulting them and they're too slow to realize what exactly everyone's laughing at them for.

    I even think up situations and escapes before hand

      Not much of a difference except mabye in dialect.
      Well, not just dialect but a whole 'nother language.

      Pakistanis mostly speak Urdu, while Indians mostly* speak Hindi.

      *Not the majority, but its more probable that an Indian speaks Hindi than any other language.

        Probably, considering 1/10th of India's population IS Pakistan's population, more or less

          Yes, but he was speaking English.

          Normally I can tell the difference between someone from Pakistan and someone from India based on how they speak. I just wasn't thinking when I asked where in India he was from.

            GRRR.
            That's regional for the east coast.
            Not all Americans sound like Texans, not all Canadians sound like Nova Scotians. Goddamn stereotypes.

                  Not quite true, but damn close. But there are more Moslems in India than in Bangladesh, IIRC.

                    I don't know why, but a few weeks ago I was sitting in class and had this daydream fantasy about getting group assaulted outside of class, and finding a way to kick everyone's ass.

                    I've never really done that before...

                      Doesn't Bangladesh have more people than Pakistan? I'm not sure about the percentages of Muslims to Hindu's though...

                      Edit: ah, it doesn't. Bangladesh is 83% Muslim, Pakistan is 97% Muslim...

                        That's a fun fantasy, but it'll never happen - the one guy kicking everyone's ass, I mean. Although once a friend of mine kicked the **** out of 7 members of a high school baseball team, but that was a much different circumstance.

                          Nope.
                          Something like 1.28*10^8 vs. 1.44*10^8 IIRC.

                              So I think the way to not kicked picked on is to have a good group of close friends, and kick the first person's ass who messes with you, and you'll be fine
                              well, it's kinda hard when they abandon you. or turn into the ones who are doing the bullying.
