Sorry, typo "puts o.nothing=(123)" should be "puts o.nothing(123)". It 
should be obvious that I screwed up, because i said:

Therefor, this is what I meant:
  +-----------------------+
  |  class MyTest         |
  |    def nothing(data)  |
  |      return false     |
  |    end                |
  |  end                  |
  |  o = MyTest.new       |
  |  puts o.nothing(123)  |
  |-----------------------|
  |OUTPUTS: false         |
  +-----------------------+
