I've already had to deal with my daughter decking a boy who bullied her all the time. She's not a violent person at all, but this boy was pushing her, pinching her, and stealing things from her for months, and she just couldn't take it any more. Good thing it was back in preschool, because she would definitely be expelled for something like that now. So yes, I've had to start teaching her the art of smartass verbal warfare.
One of the first things you need to do is use your powers of observation. You can learn a lot about people by watching them for a while. More points are scored when you say something about them that is true, rather than just "Yo mama!"
Joking aside, if these girls start to seriously bully you, keep a record of it, because you'll need details to prove your case later. And don't let it go on too long! You don't have to just 'suck it up, because it happens to most of us'. What a load of crap!
Oh, and welcome.

Welcome, 2sisters. You didn't ask for my advice, but I'ma givin' it: if you *really* want them to keep away, I suggest that when they sit next to you and prepare to launch their salvoes, you either:
--fart, prolifically and as malodorously as you can manage
--pretend to pick your nose and fling phantom boogers*** at them
--clear your throat and spit in their general direction (being sure to just miss actually touching any of them)
--vomit (in the same manner as spitting, above)
I'm fairly certain they'll not come within farting/spitting/puking distance after any (or all) such display(s). Try it; you might like it!
If bodily projections aren't your thing, you could start twitching or making like you're trying to take a bite out of your own shoulder while at the same time sticking thumbtacks in a crudely made rag doll and repeatedly saying their names and mumbling gibberish.
That's all I got for ya right now, Sis. I'll ask my son, who's 14, I'm sure he can produce even better methods for keeping away the beeyatches.

This is just ME.
So don't go getting all shocked an stuff.
It has been my experience throughout life, that bullies are cowards.
I have found that a good bitch slap across the chops normally stops the crap.
Peace, pot , micro-dot is all good and fine.
Some people cannot, WILL not be rehabbed.
If everyone understood there was a good chance of their bad manners getting them a swift kick in the ass, there might be less of a chance they'd misbehave.
Again that's just ME. |
No it isn't. It's me too.
As someone who was bullied (I know right? How was I bullied? I'm friggin huge...) I know that the best way to take care of it is to stand up to the bully. They'll pick on someone easier next time. (And then, if you're like me, you can kick the bully's ass for that, too...)  _________________ "Smacking yourself with a thawed meat-hammer never has a desired effect." - Jinxted
