Yes, He did. He was about fifteen years old and from an ethnic background that likely leaves him with no clue what a kilt is......or maybe not. Whatever the case I told him in passing that I'd rather wear a skirt than have to live my life with a mouth like his pasted on my face.

He didn't say anything after that.

I'd probably get in trouble for this if I got caught at it, but I'll tell you what I did, walking down the hall in the morning. About six guys were there, and saw me. They all stared at me for a good thirty-forty seconds, and then they turned away and started snickering.

As I got right up next to them, I clapped one of them on the shoulder and said...and I quote.

"If you had any balls, you'd give me s*** straight to my face about my kilt, and not giggle about it like a bunch of girls"

...and I kept going down the hallway.

See, If I'd been full-tiime something like that could cost me a job, but as a substitute....who cares? I'd rather help the kids who'll sit down and translate that Pablo Neruda poem (which is what I did the other day when I drew Spanish Classes, when I thought I was geting English) and really LISTEN to it when I read it to them.

I'd rather help the ONE girl who tried to lean to dance to a reel, or that one girl who was too scared to ask but is dying to dance to a reel, than suck up to a bunch of twits that think they're cool, showing off for their buddies.
