Many Bullies End Up Messing With The Wrong Person And Get What's Coming To Them

I feel you man.
From high school they turn into impatient drivers on the road.

I got bullied in school too. People called me a rat and said I have buck teeth, and all that. I had braces for years too, and after I got them removed, I had this annoying lingual brace, which is essentially this wire they fix behind your bottom teeth, that pokes against your tongue. When they finally removed that, they wanted me to go back to wearing the 'train tracks' again, because my teeth were nowhere near to being straight, and I was like, nope!

People online bully me too. I had these arseholes making an "Encyclopedia Dramatica" article about me a decade ago, and nobody on advice forums actually gives any decent advice. As soon as you promote these 'sob-stories' (their words) and you explain what has affected you, they think I'm the common denominator, and I just end up getting nowhere closer to resolving the primary problems, as it were. Basically, either these people are trolls or just clueless about people's pain in general. Forums are not there to replace your personal shrink. Try to remember that the people replying are probably just as tired of their miserable lives as well, and lashing out at these other victims because they feel like it.

The only bully who I know got beaten up was the one who went into the army. He ended up being a drill sergeant and I remember reading in the paper how he got assaulted and badly injured by someone. One died - I think he killed himself. There were 3 other really bad one and I don't know what happened to them.

I had to take a semester of freshman algebra at the beginning of my sophomore year because of low grades the year before, so I was in that class with freshmen. There was one kid who was relatively short, and another who was quite large - 6'1 or 6'2. The big guy bully used to pick on the little guy.

Little guy stood up for himself, but at one point I couldn't stand it anymore. Told the bully to leave him alone and sit down, pick on someone his own size. He tried to come at me, so I shoved him back. Hard enough he went back several feet and slammed his hip into a metal doorknob, almost fell out it hurt so bad.

I'm not a fighter. Hated that I had to do it. But I had had enough. He apologized to myself and the guy he used to pick on, and it was never an issue again.

I have been bullied online since 2003 and a lot of people I have met in person, have either taken the piss or misunderstood me. It's so incredibly sad. That really messes up a person's self-esteem. Bullies on the other hand, tend to be softies themselves.

Over the last while, some idiot calling himself "Gimpy" has been bugging me on a Fandom wiki about horror films, leaving dope comments with proxies so he cannot be permanently banned. I know he lives in either New Zealand or Australia, as he leaked his IP address ages ago, and he had posted a photo of himself and one of his dog on Biohaze. I ended up finding a Twitter profile of a person I knew from the past who harassed me, with what I think is a picture of that same guy and his dog. Well, I don't know the dog breed, but I don't think the admins can turn off guest comments. That's immature anyway. He also used to flood a relationship advice forum with spam to the point where registration was disabled, and he even gave other trolls my address. Clearly people like him are just deranged.

Rise above all haters!

I remember the guy who used to hit me in 7th grade. He was a whole head taller than me so all I did was hit him in the back when I saw him in the hall or cafeteria then run like hell. Then he would hit me later. But by 8th grade he was sick of it and told me he wouldn't hit me again if I didn't hit him.

Some high school students are bullies, unfortunately. They think they're so big and tough while they pick on other students.

However, no matter how big, strong, and tough you are, their's always someone else that's bigger and stronger than you are. Hence, if you go around messing with others, sooner or later you'll end up messing with the wrong person and you'll get your butt kicked. That's what happened to many of the bullies who I knew when I was in high school.

So with that said, to all bullies out there, why don't you do yourself and everyone else a big, fat favor and cool it?!

It sounds like you believe in karma, i believe in it to a degree, what we sow we will reap however, good people suffer too. We should always stand up to bullies. Always.
