I used to be bullied all the way through elementary school, middle school and high school. No matter how much I tried, there was always something wrong with me. I was too short, too skinny, too childish, too scattered, too loud, too talkative, too theatrical and dramatic. Then I was too quiet, too closed, too secretive, too weird... I was too much of an emo, I was too much of a punk-rocker, I was too much of a goth, I was too little of these things.
Some of the most successful artists were not the most popular. This includes Stephen Speilburg who was bullied a lot when he was young too. It's unfortunate but a lot of younger individuals are basically shallow and tend to be prone to making fun of others in their effort to feel more important than they really are.
