Funniest Things A City Slicker Has Ever Said To You?

[TheCrazyClucker]

And that's just egging them on.. Try ignoring them and their comments.. because the more reaction they get out of you the more fun they have coming back at you.
Once they decide you're not "fun" to attack verbally anymore.. they will move on to another target

Otherwise it's a vicious cycle.. they make comments..you retaliate.. they make comments.. you retaliate... and on it goes.. which makes it look as if you enjoy the entire thing



personally i wouldn't play those games.. sooner or later it can blow up in your face

Well, I really don't care what they do, it's just really fun to see their faces (

) I know it's not right but IT'S SO DARN FUNNY!! And since I've started playing tricks, I think they've become a little more careful of what they do because they know I always have a trick up my sleeve...

As a mother, I feel badly that you are harassed in school. I know how it is to be in your position, I was in a school where I was the only girl enrolled in the ag program for most of high school. However, people didn't really pick on me, because being a girl who actually worked on a farm like a man, I had biceps that kept them from saying much. The girls oftentimes, I felt, didn't include me much except when it came to picking teams for sports because I was pretty good at most of them.

Your true revenge is knowing you are living healthier and happier than they likely are. You are probably right that they are not the ones training and enjoying their horses. In fact, their horses probably don't enjoy them either. So, when you talk about spoiled horses, just because they live in a fancy stable, doesn't necessarily mean they are spoiled. Some people might consider YOU spoiled because you go to a private school, but the opposite is evidently true.

You should believe what comes around goes around an the mean kids will get theirs. Hold your head high and be proud that you are living that outdoor, healthy life and that you can take care of and feed yourself. There may come a day when that is a bigger deal than what kind of car your daddy bought you.

As a side note, my 11-year old daughter has a very snotty girl in her class who is always making comments to her that are mean. I think my daughter has figured out that she is the better person because she would never make someone feel the way the other girl tries to make her feel.

By the way, we started raising and eating rabbits this year, and my daughter's classmates just can't believe it and think we are horrible for eating cute little bunnies. I just shake my head, and so does she. The things people are just too ignorant or naive about is amazing.

Thanks, my mom knows about the brat troupe, but I told her I could handle things on my own. And I'm usually also picked as one of the first in gym because, like you, I work on my family's farm like a man and I'm really good at sports.
I know that, but what's the fun in just thinking about revenge? And your right- horses living in fancy stables doesn't necessarily mean they're spoiled. I'm the opposite of spoiled, and I just went to that private school because I got a scholarship their and my parents said I should go, like I said.
And as for cars, considering I'm a minor and can't drive, I couldn't care less about what kind of car I get when I can drive (which won't be for another 4-6 years). And most likely I'll get my brothers old car when I can, because the minute he got the car he has now, he began saving up for a new one.
And I agree with yinepu, you should be proud of your daughter.

If your daughter has figured it out that makes her very wise.. you should be proud of her

I am very proud of her. And she is wise, but it doesn't mean it is always easy to do what is right. BUT what is worth doing is rarely easy.

It may have been a long time since high school for me but I do remember the bullies. It was not easy especially when some of them are family members. I still do not like being around my some of my cousins... they are still just mean. They think it is so funny what they did back in the past and what they do now. I try to tell my mom why I do not like being around them but to her there is only family and you should not need anything else. Even now and I am in my 40's... I have a lot of friends that I am way more close to then most of my family. I guess due to all that it is hard to hear when someone is having issues. You are very lucky to have an understanding and supportive mom. My only choice back then was to run away from them and be alone most of my life. Now when I do have to be around them I stand my ground and they leave me alone.
Trick and pranks... They can backfire on you like the others have said...But standing your ground can be good. Some bullies are only after easy prey and if you are not an easy mark they can leave you alone. I am glad that these kids are learning to leave you alone. They may learn some hard lessons but then again they may only be weary of you.. If they are like my cousins then they may never learn anything else then to move on to easier prey. I feel sorry for you to experience this and for the next victims because there will be more.

Unfortunately, standing up for yourself seems to be the only way with some. I remember having some of the "richie" kids doing nasty stuff to me when I moved from the farming community to the city community. I just have to say, kids are NASTY to each other. Heck, I'm still friends with a kid who was picked on so badly that he dropped out of high school... and he was a genius. I remember the one day, a guy tripped him and he went sprawling out across the desks and landed on the floor. I stood up and told the guy if I ever caught him doing that again, I'd personally kick his arse. Poor guy never caught a break unless I was around. However, he's doing very well in life!

So sorry that you are having issues that bad at school. And to think... their parents are probably paying outrageous prices for organic and fresh things that you get from home. Were do eggs come from? Really? They need to go back to kindergarten... the children there can teach them about animals...
And as for the horses.... I would rather see a good horse, no matter what the breed, then a horse spoiled & over-priced that probably can't do half what yours can. I don't know what those kids are ridding and how they ride... but I have seen a lot of those wealthy people at workshops (I have only gone to observe, I can't afford to go with my horse) and TV shows... wondering why all their money can't get them what they want.
I think the worms were funny... but I guess I shouldn't encourage you Wow do I feel old

Now keep in mind that not ALL rich families spoil their kids. Mine for example. We are taught to earn our money and make good use to it.

They ARE spoiled, all right. No doubt about it. And my parents teach us that, too. Even though my family's not rich, we're taught that being rich isn't bad unless you use the money in the wrong way. Like if someone is well off and they WORKED for their money and don't use it to make people feel like a doormat, they should be proud.

There is good and bad with all levels of life. My cousins that are so mean... They are far and away from well off. The poorer side of the family... they have some of the boys go in and out of jail.. but that is OK with them. The youngest (a girl and 2 yrs older then me) was constantly picking fights at school... but that is OK ... my mom said that she never knew about that. My mom and I did really well since she had an amazing job (she is retired now) and I have a job and finished my BA degree... that means they will barrow money from us but we are still a joke to them. I just try to stay away from all that the best that I can. It is nice that other parts of my family are way nicer and see the issues. So it is not just me...

Alright folks, this thread is becoming sort of a downer, let's get back to the funny stories about people who ask silly questions about our animals and farms.
OK?
