>>40315757>getting bulliedAs a literal autist I never cared about what people said and knew myself well enough to understand my faults.
Can't bully people who either agree with you and therefore ignore you pointing out the obvious or people who think you're an idiot and therefore ignore you for saying things that are patently false.
Same applies to what I like or didn't like.
No attention/reaction means bullies move on. They're looking for the good feels mommy and daddy aren't giving them.
Not to mention most animals, humans included, just generally like me so the few who tried got looked down upon for picking at me.
Everyone who has known me knew I never stopped playing and never said a word about it.
Hell, I was wearing a Pokémon shirt last week when I met up with an old friend for the first time in about 17 years and the only thing he mentioned about my look personally was that I got bigger (since last he saw me I was 15 and a REALLY late bloomer - 8 inches + 100 lbs will do that, lol).
