What is the stupid thing that people make fun of you for?

Mumbling.The idea that this is related to a combination of sinus-problems, low-self esteem and chronic anxiety hasn’t occurred to any of them.

nobody really mocks me for anything really

When I was at school people used to mock me for my curly hair which was very irritating. However, I have grown to love my hair and “own” the look.

I was shivering earlier. I’ve had to put my coat on.

My family are weird hetronormative dickheads so they like to make fun of me for absolutely everything. As a result I do not enjoy spending time with them.

For about 10 years: being bald. Hilarious.

Friends & family used to take the piss that I was skinny. Then they all took the piss when I put on a bit of weight. Now they take the piss that I go to the gym. It’s incredible to think I’m very self-conscious and have tremendous anxiety issues.

Sleepwalking.

When I was young I’d regularly get in the shower or, you know, attempt to urinate in a cupboard, while asleep. I once tried to climb out of my parents 2nd floor bedroom window.

The best time, though, was the night before my wedding, when I went sleepwalking whilst staying at my brother’s. I was woken up by a random stranger in the street at 3am, whilst wearing nothing but my pants.

These incidents get bought up constantly.

This happened one of my best mates during a Joan Shelley gig a few years back. He was absolutely demented and got trapped in the cubicle in the smallest gig venue in Cork. Could hear him whinging from inside the gig. Got him out and he fell asleep in the middle of the gig then.

I still slag him about it to this day of course.

Everyone in this thread shouldn’t feel too down about these things. @profk speaks very highly of all of you.

Being a drunk probably

When I was a child I’d always lose my school lunchbox, and my Dad eventually refused to buy a replacement. So I used to take my sandwiches to school in an empty margarine tub. One day I accidentally took an actual tub of margarine to school and didn’t realise til I opened it in the dinner hall.

36 years later and my family still rinse me about it.
