My school is really small, but I didn't know that a lot of people watch avatar til last year. So we have our own little avatar cliqueish thing, but I do have friends who don't like/ watch avatar. One of my friends comes up to me every time I talk about avatar and says, "YAH I LOVE the part in that episode.." of course she is the one who writes I love (insert name of person who plays harry potter in the movies here, wow that sad that don't know who that is) all over her binder. I think that people have no right to insult avatar unless they have atleast WATCHED IT! oh- I also threw a lacrosse ball at my friend when she called aang a freak, she just doesn't get that he is a monk. I think the arrow scares her

I'm so used that people laugh at me. But no one at school bother to laugh at me when they realise that my art succeeds much better than their own art on the net. Tho I never show my art to anyone...but somehow they figure out my artsite.
People have to be pretty much openminded here.

My friend made fun of me because I like it. Which is odd because he likes Dragon Ball Z which is like 10 times worse than Avatar. And not to mention DBZ is just gay. (no offense) Well one day we were and class and I told him not to tell anyone, and he shouts across the room "Hey, did you see that new Avatar episode last night". So then everyone was all asking about it and was making jokes. I think that's pretty bad, but don't diss DBZ its what got me into anime and stuff. I like DBZ and Avatar.

My whole school thinks I'm eccentric(sp?) my friends joke about it lightly but they don't make fun of Avatar becuase they watch it too.

my parents make fun of me for it. Also at school too. Once you read this story, you'll know how mentally challenged some people are at my school in hillbilly hell. In my flex class (it's a thirty-five minute class where you can do your homework or go to band etc, before the school day ends) I was drawing some ATLA art with markers, pencils, colored pencils, etc. This kid came up behind, took the paper and said "Your such a spaz. You watch Avatar?!" In front of my crush! My crush looked at me, but he didn't laugh he just smiled (I melted right at that point) When he started to laugh out loud (everybody heard the joke and was looking in my direction) nobody laughed. They looked at him like he was a alien or something. His friend (who was my crush) said,"Shut up and sit down. You watch Dora the Explorer." Then everyone started to laugh even me. I looked at the boy and said,"You're such a spaz" Revenge is soooo sweet (PS, my crush eventually asked me out a couple of days later!We are now sharing our first anniversary) aww thats nice

I think college students are definitely far more open-minded when it comes to this sort of thing I have friends who obsess over Yugi-Oh (or however you spell it...) and others who love Spongebob, but I haven't had an experience yet where someone thought I was stupid for liking a show. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes Some people are just more idiotic than others, but they'll get smacked down eventually (LOL though some of you already took care of that )!

(which i kindof am) but i don't take being rejected and humiliated very well....

Whenever I get made fun of, they always either go to, "You watch cartoons? But you're 14!" or "Anime sucks!" Though, I need to explain that Avatar is NOT AN ANIME. ARGH. But I got really weirded out one time because I was drawing Avatar and then this really popular ghetto kid came up to me, and he said, "Avatar is tight! That blind kid is so cool, like (He started doing earthbending-esque moves at that point)" He referred to Toph as Phot, though. So... Yeah. It really freaked me out, though. The popular kids always do that to me. I'm not sure if they're actually serious or they're making fun of me. o.0

No one I know watches Avatar. *feels alone* I only mentioned my liking it to one friend. but she pretty much disowned me for it. Hey, that's why I come here! Where I can talk with people just as obsessive as me!

A lot of kids at my school like it. I always find avatar books sitting on desks. And apparently the teachers have noticed that a lot of kids like avatar because my librarian is having a contest and the prize is an avatar book, so of course me and my friends entered it. I'm glad I go to a school where no one makes fun of you for watching it. And I'm sorry that some of you do. I just hate people who make fun of a show that they have never even seen before.

It's so stupid when some of my "friends" make fun of me for watching it by saying things about the characters and stuff like that, but hello!, if they know about the characters and stuff, then they watch it too!!! And I bet they would say, "Ohh! I saw my brother watching it and it was g**!", but I know they're probably lying! They're so annoying, cuz they know they watch it but they make fun of you anyway! ps: what does (sp?) mean?
