Crawling up the bjj ladder

Still a white belt, still being ground into pancake splatters by Captian Jock and the heavyweight brigade. Really, it's about the new guys. Still bigger than me on average by 30 lbs (this excludes those with wrestling experience, but smaller) but now there is this....fixation? Out of all the guys in the dojo who are bigger--and better than me--newbies think I'm some sort of animal, a beast, a cyborg a wild man (a, ahem, TigrMchine?). In the end all it means is more bruises, and a renewed desire to work on escapes, wrongside rolls, and the Vulcan nerve pinch.
