Being a quiet, bookish sort...
...I was surprised to find that I was never bullied in a manner other than verbal. Having a larger vocabulary and a tendency to call people's bluff, this didn't present me with much of a problem. Conveniently, I've also been a lot stronger and faster than I might be considered on appearance; this last having helped a great deal in standing up to people with confidence.
I could never quite understand the phrase 'I've had your mum' when used as an insult, for 'tis sure to be untrue. It was used against me once, whereupon my face became a mask of bewilderment. I simply replied that I doubted it, for she had better taste. The idiot went away.
The upshot of this is that I lack a funny or interesting story (or, perhaps, simply lack the wherewithal to relate one in an amusing manner). Non change there, then.
