Yeah it's a f**king cruel world out there nowadays... and I'm living in a small country up north! Can't even begin to imagine what it must be like in the US. I mean, people will do anything to find a flaw from a fellow man to pick on. It makes them feel better. If someone's got a big nose, he's called "the guy with a big nose" behind his back. If someone's got bad skin, he gets ridiculed for it. I don't know if it has always been like that but I sure as hell would like to think it hasn't! And speech impediments are another thing... I got a slight speech impediment myself, never get ridiculed for it anymore but it always hurts when someone does. And there's always the thought that someone is making fun of me for it behind my back. And it's a hard thing to swallow since I'm naturally very talkative and even humorous and it holds me back a bit amongst strangers.
