I never took it, but it never really bothered me either. I handled it by angrily arguing with them. For instance, I was as naive as a kid in a 60s sitcom in 5th grade. My classmates would make fun of me because I didn't know what the obscenities were that they were using. I would always get mad and tell them, "Hey! There was a time when you didn't know what those words meant either! Someone had to tell you about them before you knew! I just moved here, and no one said that stuff where I used to live, so you can't blame me!" They just laughed anyway, so I went on eating my lunch and ignored them. They never got me down, because I could tell that they were fun-loving kids, not malicious kids. And they were nice to me many times, too.

Dead silence...all her friends stopped laughing and she never, ever said a word to me again. Left me and "boo" alone completely after that.

Ha! I can easily visualize that scene by the way you wrote it.

I know. The names are so ridiculously cutesy that they are probably off-putting to many people who might otherwise take a look. The names make the subjects seem like juvenile science fiction. I'm not partial to that particular name either.
