In the 7th grade, I had a sweet 'I <3 NY' tee.
I wore it a few times.
I was wearing the shirt one day in history class when I walked to the back of the classroom to sharpen my pencil. As I walked to the back of the classroom, I passed the desk of a girl named Stephanie.
As I passed Stephanie's desk, she said to her friend, Melanie, in a conversational voice with a valley-girl tone, "Ugh, I bet he's never even been to New York."
#1 - I had never uttered a single word to this girl to make her lash out against me or hate me in any way.
#2 - Of the millions of 'I <3 NY' t-shirt wearers, why did she single me out as the one person who had worn the shirt unlawfully, assuming I had never traveled to New York?
#3 - Why did she voice her comment so loud?
The only reasoning I can come up with is that her dad raped her.
Bitch.
