Subject: Initialize not being called on objects created from literals

Initialize doesn't appear to get called.

class Object
  def initialize
    @foo = 'bar'
  end
  attr_reader :foo
end

a = Object.new # => #<Object:0x54c964 @foo="bar">
a.foo # => "bar"
'string'.foo # => nil
//.foo # => nil

I want to have //.foo and 'string.foo give me "bar" as they should. How
can I do that?
