I had a big nose. When I learned to poke fun at it myself and become the "clown", I was accepted. Unfortunately, sometimes I turned my "clowning" in others directions to divert the mob their way. Not cool. I may owe some apologies.

Yeah, when I was fourteen I made fun of a kid with a speech impediment. He was giving me shit at the same time, but yeah, still not excusable.
The only person I really wished I sent an apology to was a girl who really had a rough life - I wasn't mean to her, but I also wasn't the person that I should have been. I suppose that's part of being human - our actions fall too often short of what is necessary. I facebook stalked her a few years ago, and she seemed to be doing well, so I let sleeping dogs life, but I still wonder.
