Annoying nickname and how to get him back?
I got the annoying nickname Buda (from Budism) because this guy in my class really likes me. Or dare i say he is obsessed with me? SO now whenever i go past someone in my class they go "ooohhhh, Buda!" And they make a praying motion. How do I get them back? What kind of nickname or comeback line should i think up for them? Please don't say to ignore it cuz i tried and it didn't work.

Call them your followers. Then they'll feel like they're whipped or something. Say to them that you always knew that you were better than them and this proves it. Yeah, you'll look stuck up, but HEY! They're the ones who started that crap! I hate it when people pick on one person for no reason at all. You should make them feel stupid, so jsut call them your faithful followers, go along with it. If you show them that it bothers you, they won't stop doing it, BELIEVE ME. Try it. Make it into a joke almost. ;)

Are you Asian or Buddhist? Probably not from the way you spell the word. Either way you are experiencing harassment. Calmly tell people who do that to you that you do not appreciate the nickname and would prefer they stop. Tell Mr. Obsessed that not only won't you date the idiot, but if he does not stop the practice, you will never speak to him and spread rumors about seeing him performing a sex act on another guy.

Be like budha and just smile.
OR give them orders like you really are a god and then they will eventually quit.
Most people give budha flowers and money so make then " pay " for the right to call you that.

When people tease you like that, or give you a nickname.. the best thing to do (that will really p_ss them off) is to go along with it. When they start saying things like "Ooooh, Budah" say something like "Yes, my child.. bow to me..." or "Rub my bell-ayyy" (fat bastard style). Ha, how about getting one of those Budah shirts.. I think Old Navy carries them, pretty cheap (like $12 or so) with the little picture of Buddah, and it says something like "rub my tummy for good luck". That'll get to them.....

Play along with it, ham it up, they are only doing it to upset you, when you show it doesn't they will chill out and stop calling you that.
I would totally goof off and start making people bow down, and quoting stupid stuff.

You can always go the extreme route,
Tell them to shut-the-****-up or your gonna budda kick them in the throat. Use the nickname to your advantage there hun.

play off of it!! my name's robin, so people would be like "oh where's batman" when i was younger. don't ignore it, play off of it. like when people said that i would be like "oh he's off fighting crime" or "he's actually having sex with your mom now that your dad is out of the house" stuff like that.
you just gotta think of something to say, and you're golden.
