I was called "stupid" and a "stuck up jerk" today

my friends have been nice and polite to me recently...

one was because I didn't believe in taking pain killers and suffered from serious cramps for 7 straight hours; one was because (this is ridiculous, isn't it?!) that I was quoting Ayn Rand's "I can accept anything, except what seems to be the easiest for most people: the half-way, the almost, the just-about, the in-between."

but anyways, I am not affected. On the contrary, I'm very happy now! :D Well, for no reason, though...
