Ten Sure Ways to Get the Maximum Ride Characters to Utterly Despise You

And here we have... chapter Abate! Yay! (First time I typed "Abate", I typed "Batae"...heh...)

John Abate

1. Walk up to him, explain in a chaotic (read: nonsensical) manner how Dr. M could never like him back like he likes her, then laugh and point at his expression and walk away.

2. Randomly pop up beside him and ask, "Do you like bubbles?"

3. When he screams like a little girl because, hey, you popped up beside him with no notice, laugh and point again.

4. Pour a bucket of scalding hot melted butter over his head...

5. ...while he's taking a shower.

6. And then pour a bucket of cherry-flavored ice over his head.

7. Repeat every time he takes a shower, until he's afraid to even enter the bathroom.

8. Whack him upside the head, then say, "Your mom gave you the most boring name ever!"

9. Ask him what his ninth middle name is. Every day. For the rest of eternity.

10. Ask him if he created John Deere because, hey, his first name is John too.

BONUS! 11. When he stares at you and denies it, roll your eyes and say, "Riiight..."

DOUBLE BONUS! 12. Ask him if he's ever worked or though of working in a bait store. Because, like, he's Abate.

Skits (Fangalicous08) came up with #12.

Next up is...um...-checks- Pruitt! Wait, no, that can't be right... Pruitt was #27... Fail. Okay, so next up is... well, after Pruitt I'm supposed to do Dr. Hans-Gunther, but I'm changing my mind. Next, I'm doing JJ. -grin- (JJ was Max's semi-friend from SoF)
