My dad's bully ended up becoming a small-time crime boss (Had a loansharking business in his pawn shop, ran a illegal casino, dealt drugs, fake ID's, and guns, had a few prostitute lines, and also ran a bunch of phone scams). Eventually he hired my dad as a accountant. (Dad worked as a accountant for criminals at the time) I don't know how he did it, but eventually he leaked incriminating evidence to a friend on the force. 2 years into the boss's sentence, he was stabbed to death by another kid he used to bully.

I was bullied by several students from grades 4 through 9. One day, on my way home for lunch. several students decided to literally stone me; lost some teeth. I couldn't remember all of them, so I named the one I could recall. My parents settled with his parents for a relatively small sum (3 figures) as compensation. I've had problems with those teeth for years, costing me several thousands of dollars. My problem with this guy is that he grew up to be a professional hockey player. He could certainly afford to pay me what it has cost me; however, the settlement my parents got from his parents was a one-time amount, so that no one could come back and ask for more money.

In my case, my high school bully turned into a lovely woman! Freaked me out the first time I ran into her while she was waitressing. She ran up and hugged me, which was mind boggling. She apologized and we hung out a few times. She never explained why she treated me like that, but I felt like I’d gotten my revenge back in high school (the headmasters dog chased her around the locker room, with the entire school watching), so I was cool with that. Haven’t seen her in years but I hope she’s doing well.

[@stillaboveground2470]

I received a FB friend request from a bully I had in junior high school. I deleted his request without responding. I told a lady friend of mine about it, and she said, "Maybe he was reaching out to apologize." I said, "Yeah, and maybe he was thinking about picking up where he left off." She said that I should have given him a chance, and I said that if he wants forgiveness, he can go to church. In my mind, I had long ago forgiven him for his mistreatment, but I wasn't going to let him back in my life. That chapter of my life was closed, and I wasn't going to risk reliving it on the off chance that he has a guilty conscience. In that situation, he has everything to gain, no matter which path he chose. I didn't owe him anything, so why seek trouble?

[@nemo7542who]

And my main reasoning in cases like this is that they can simply write an apology before you accept them on FB. It will be marked "requested chats", but it's there. It's on them to be clear from the start.

It isn’t about me, it is about being an adult and having empathy for the person I wronged.

[@amfan_17presentations87]

I love your response! I was bullied in the 7th grade for being socially awkward (I’m autistic) and a few girls played me wrong in high school. I was bitter and resentful for a couple years until I learned to forgive and empathize. I want to see them do well, but I respect myself enough to never let them back in my life.

[@andreasanchez1453]

I met one of my former bullies in college. He told me since the day I left my first junior high he thought I actually committed self termination and my family covered my death up. Poor guy had to endure 6 years of thinking he was responsible for my ‘ death ‘ . I forgave him and told him he was young stupid and didn’t know any better. That I understood he came from a place of ignorance. Turns out, while I was a student teacher (17/18 years of age) his baby cousin who had been born severely disabled was one of my students. He told me that because of my work with her she’s flourishing in school and that she misses me a lot. I told him to tell her just because I’m not with her anymore doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten about her and I know she will become the best Doctor Lawyer in the world ( I still remember what she told me when I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up). Although what he did to me when we were 13 years old was horrible. I’m happy he learned that what he did was wrong and he became a better person. I hope he does well in life. I wish him prosperity, happiness and peace. As for my other bullies , I don’t know what they are doing. I hope that they learned what they did to me was wrong and sought to better themselves from it. I only wish them the best in life. If I do meet them and I see remorse I will give them my forgiveness.

[@leafyishereisdumbnameakath4259]

Why did he think you ended your life

[@brianbarber5401]

Personally, I think a bully feeling guilty for years thinking he was responsible for someone’s self ending is perfect. He gets to feel the torment that he’s put others through, likely in the context of what he’s made other people think of doing, and it probably stopped him from continuing to be a bully Notice, however, that one of the big things brought up was he had family that was vulnerable and subject to potentially a lot of hurtful treatment? Just like the fear that he lead someone to suicide, he didn’t care until it affected him. Maybe he actually learned empathy.

[@amethyst1062]

I ran into my would-be high school bully a couple years back. He recognized me on sight while I couldn't place his name. He was a real punk way back when and about the last person I expected to see still be living back home. Don't expect a heartwarming redemption story though. Once he was sure I remembered him being a menace, he went in on me, asking if I'd been kicked out of the Air Force and was back living with my parents. This confused me because it had been well over a decade since high school, and I'd joined up after a couple years of college, but this dude acted like we were still teenagers and graduation just happened. I replied like, "No. I'm actually about eight years from retirement. I'm just home for the holidays. Why are you still living around here?" He called me a derogatory word for a woman's privates and shuffled off. Two days later, while running some errands for Christmas dinner, I see this man stocking shelves at the local Food Lion. Projection is an ugly thing.

I was having dinner with my girlfriend now fiance on a restaurant once, the school a*hole/bully was a waiter and he came to serve us and he recognized me. I was exoecting him to have matured, but he didn’t, he started making fun of me for what he did to me when I was 10 years old. I was way taller, athletic and confident, but I knew that he wanted to get on my nerves so I did nothing. I just gave him the death stare while he acted like an idiot, but my girlfriend threw her hot scolding coffee on his crotch area. The a*hole started screaming like a freaking banshee while rolling all over the floor, a few waitresses just stared at my former bully as he screamed and rolled on the floor and they just walked away. Long story short, the a*hole was fired for harassing customers and we got a free dinner. Apparently it wasn’t the first time he harassed customers, what a piece of filth…

Not because they deserve it, but because it's immature to wish despair upon those you mildly dislike.

[@JediOttselWaluigikid115]

@Coco_Toertchen i am an American, I will tell you the answer to your question, simply put are school system is broken that hasn’t been updated in the last 50 years. Some kids have parents that make hundreds of thousands of dollars each in paychecks alone, which makes schools afraid to do anything to stop the kids from bullying out of fear that their parents will sue the school, which have a hard enough time getting funding as it is, but that is a problem for another time. Lastly some teachers just simply don’t do anything to stop it weather they see it happen, hear it happen, or are told about by a student or not, even if the student telling them is the one being bullied. Some teachers don’t believe a student when they tell them that they are being bullied. Some teachers are the ones doing the bulling but word of them spreads fast and all it takes is one student to gather up enough evidence and credible witnesses to have them fired thought. Sometimes worst of all the kid being bullied is to sacred and afraid to speak up and/or stand up for them selves either because they have told teacher and that made the bullying worse or they were threatened by the bully with violence if stood up for themselves or told an adult. FYI for the teacher being told they can only do so much to punish the bully in other words tell their parents or try to correct the bullies bad behavior in some way etc; especially if the parents don’t punish the child for their bad behavior, or the child has parents that make tons of cash goes home and tell them some misconstrued story of what happened to them at school if the parents choose believe it they might take legal action against the school or even just flat out sue the school for hundreds of thousands if millions of dollars the school probably does not have. Sorry if the explanation is longer then you expected and if read this all the way through feel free to have your as long mine or longer, I know I kind of wrote an essay, just didn’t think it would get this long. LoL 😂🇺🇸🏫

[@TheMichaelJordanofGambling]

These aren’t the same schools, states, etc that are doing this. Most of the schools in our area will expel you for fighting. Even someone defending themselves are likely to be expelled. Many of these stories are from different time frames, as fighting was certainly less frowned upon years ago. When I was a kid, a fight might get you a suspension or detention. It’s not uncommon for it to be treated as a criminal matter now and the kids kicked out of school.

[@smiley4995]

We have zero tolerance on fights in so many schools, the purpose was to "stop bullying" supposedly, but essentially it has made it so that kids don't feel safe to tell their teachers that they are being harmed or harassed.

He was not my school bully, but was widely known as an asshole in our circle. Over time, everyone put distance from him as he just had terrible traits as a person. Lying, stealing, drama starting, cheating, talking behind peoples back, overly confident, tried to hard to be manly. Eventually it would come out that he was cheating and verbally abusing his then girl friend who was popular among the group. It was practically the last straw for the remainder of his friends and he was left alone. A year later, my closet friend was still associating with him, and the bully asked to move in with him. I had some beef with the bully, so he asked me for my thoughts. I told him that I understand that he was desperate for some cash, but it would difficult to get rid of him if you let him move in. Eventually it would come out that he did allow him to move in. And at first, everyone was telling me that he has been improving his character. I was skeptical, but there was a big party my friend was hosting. So he invited me as a way to show he has changed as a person. I was not afraid of the guy, I just find it hard to believe a person will turn his life around in less than a year. But I gave it a shot. At the party, I enjoyed my time until the then bully showed up from another event he just got back from. One my other friend grew tense as he was severely bullied by this person. I kept a cool head and did my greeting and offer him at the board game table as a olive branch. Eventually, my friend who was bullied left, pretty soon in fact. After he left, the then bullied asked if my friend was alright. I pulled him to the side and explained that he was a real asshole growing up. He seemed surprised, but understandable as he admits his faults. We had a decent conversation and we decided to let the past be the past. A month later I found out he was talking shit about me, trying to start drama between me and my friends. I guess some people don't change.

I once had this bully back in elementary school. We would fight a lot on the playground while all his friends would watch. Made me cry a lot. After promoting to middle school from 5th grade, he went to the rival middle school to my middle school. But recently met him again beginning of my junior year. He recognized me and apologized for his behavior back then. He said that the guilt of him making me cry was in the back of his head for the x amount of years he didn't see me. He also found out through some people that I had went by a different name now. He confirmed it by asking me. He made me cry once again, but happy tears this time. Even though he was my bully I never wished him bad. I wished good things because karma can go a long way. He's pretty much mellowed out (that includes the w33d he smokes).

I just wanna take a moment to comment that it's important to know that forgiveness is not a requirement. Forgiveness is not a requirement to move on with your life, and forgiveness is not a requirement just because they're a better person now. You can accept what happened to you, reconcile with what that means for you moving forward, and still decide not to forgive the person who did it. Holding a grudge is vastly different in that it takes up more of your mental and emotional energy (by wanting things like karma or revenge, for example), and holding a grudge can actively influence how you treat that person or people like them. You can move with your life and choose not to forgive someone while NOT holding a grudge. It IS possible, and it's NORMAL to not want to forgive someone who caused you substantial trauma.

Bully ran off and climbed a fence. Her 17 year old brother threatened to beat me up. But the bully never touched me or my sisters again. The brother didn't follow through either. The bully later married, had a child and came down with the flu. She died from some sugar level complication while her husband was at work.

[@xenjanobody2097]

My little sister was my biggest bully, she didn’t pick on me, she pushed buttons and boundaries to the point I would always be on the couch crying inconsolably from the stress she would make me endure because I was the babysitter and 7 years older than her, I was supposed to be able to take it, and every time she made me break down from stress, she would always be peeking around the hallway corner.. with this evil smirk like “ya, I did this to you” years later when dad went into the army, mom received the same treatment, now understanding what I had gone through this whole time. When my sister turned 12 she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and she had zero intention of taking care of her blood sugar or insulin, now after a decade with diabetes and not taking care of it she’s in the hospital all the time, doctors tell her she won’t make it passed 28 if she doesn’t take it seriously right now, still doesn’t take it seriously, now my sister has always been an asshole to me and everyone around her, even as an adult she never learned empathy when she’s unmedicated, which she refuses to take her medication, the guy she rents a room from hasn’t gotten any rent and is about to be homeless instead of just getting a job and paying her rent, she’s back in the hospital on respirator from throwing herself into DKA over and over again, she expects sympathy from everyone l, which my family, even having been treated terribly by her gives her. Now me, I have been tormented and lied to and shit talked by her all my life, after actions she took a few years ago, I started no contact with her and I plan on keeping it that way, when it comes to this girl, I can’t show empathy, I cannot show compassion, and I cannot show that I care because at this point, I don’t care about her or her health problem or the fact she is going to die. I care about how my family, my mom, dad, aunt and my sister’s son she abandoned will be affected by her death. If I had the choice I wouldn’t even go to see her on her deathbed, which everyone would judge me for, even my boyfriend says I will regret which I really don’t think I will, if anything I’d be relieved she can’t ruin or hurt people anymore. I dread going to see her when I know it won’t do anything, it won’t matter, I will never see her as anything more than an unempathetic shithead lieing asshole with no empathy, remorse, or thought on how her actions affect another person. I don’t want to see her as I can’t even say I’d show any emotion while in the hospital room, let alone her death. I’ve never felt this way for another person in my life and it makes me feel evil but when push comes to shove, she’s my life abuser and this is my boundary wall I refuse to let her smash to pieces, so rest in peace and rest without hurting me anymore, I will be sure to raise your son to become better than you are, your legacy will not pass on the treatment you deemed I was worthy for

My middle school bully would begin every day with picking me up and throwing me to the floor as hard as he could, which I always countered it with a backwards somersault onto my feet. Didn't hurt but it was annoying considering he was my size x2. Eventually I got tired of it and I kicked him as hard as I could in the shin the next time he did it. Last I saw him apparently the local police department was going up and down the river looking for who dumped the body. When I asked him "How come there's blood on your shirt?" he just responds with "That's not blood" and that was the last I ever saw him. But before all that unfolded he apologized for bullying me in 7th grade.

So my brother stood up to his school bully after school hours. Put the fear of God into the kid and he left my brother alone after that. When they bumped into each other checking out items at a grocery store years later the guy was still scared of my brother.

I was well into adulthood when I realized I was a bullying school. It made me sick. How could I have been so stupid? Why in the world did I bully people? I was a average kid with an average life and that one major flaw ruined me. When I look back now I want to puke remembering some of the things I did. I can’t change anything now but I did offer up a prayer for Gods forgiveness but too little too late? I know he sacrificed his only sin for my sins but I still feel so awful about it. If anyone reading this remembers me and was one of my victims I want to offer my sincere apologies. I’m so sorry I hurt you. I have no excuses and one day I knowI will have to answer for it, but all Ican do now is continue to pray and be the best I can be for the rest of my life.

Don't pray to God for forgiveness, that's cowardly and lazy, since of course he forgives sins to those who are honest in reaching out to him. What you need to do is reach out and apologize to those you harmed. If you at least try that is enough, not to be forgiven since you may not be by everyone, but it will show that you have tried to better yourself and not just ran away from your past.

[@gabrielledawson4863]

Something I want to tell you about the Atonement is that it isn’t only for the perpetrator, it’s also for the victim. I never got an apology from the person who hurt me but that doesn’t mean I’m left alone to deal with the healing process all by myself. The Atonement offers healing. You can be forgiven, and others can be healed. Remembering what you did will sting, but don’t let it convince you that you can never change or be forgiven. Part of the repentance process is making reconciliation where possible. Try to find to people you’ve hurt and apologize. If you can’t find them, you may find them later in life. Pray for help finding them. But trust that God knows them, and loves them too. He is mindful of them and their needs. They are not left alone. This applies to you too. Pray, have patience, and trust that things will get better. Please don’t think that you’re doomed to never be forgiven. It’s a trick to get you to stop trying, or hoping for mercy. It’s meant to hinder your spiritual progress to becoming more. Forgiveness is possible. The Lord stands ready to forgive and to embrace. He is kind and gentle, He is not cruel and unforgiving. Remember, he is your loving Heavenly Father who wants you to return to Him. He is aware of you, and knows you personally. I hope you can draw closer to Him and feel His love for you. Remember, no matter what you face or feel, the answer is always Jesus Christ.

[@verosikamayday6284]

Warning: Long story, TL;DR at the end. Not a bully from school, but a bully nonetheless. I worked at a local electrical company in the late 90s and early 2000s where one of my colleagues, who we'll call "R" was a textbook definition of a bitch. She hated everyone and everyone hated her, but for some reason out of everyone she hated me the most. We were both in our 20s when we started, I was in my mids (26) and she was in her earlies (IIRC, somewhere between 20 & 23). She didn't graduate from college (expelled) and I'm guessing her behavior with others is why. We had sort of a Moxxie & Loona relationship, where much like Loona, she would constantly taunt and torture me. Eat my lunch behind my back, demanded that I do any paperwork she didn't want to do, etc. And much like Moxxie, I put up with it for a while. However, unlike Moxxie, I quit my job after I had enough of her bullshit. I eventually got a similar job near where I lived and everyone there was miles nicer than my previous job. Surprisingly, more people started to quit working at my old job as well and within a year, the place closed for good. A couple of years later, I got married and had triplets. One of them is non-binary but that will be important later. Their 16th birthdays roll around (that was fast), and we go to Buffalo Wild Wings. The woman at the front greets us, takes us to our seats, and who else should be there but R as our waitress. Her pupils were abnormally big, and she was violently itching herself to the point where a small amount of blood was seeping out. Not long after she came to our table, she started a conversation that went something like this: R: Hey shithead, long time, no see! (apparently, she thought we would be buddy-buddy after all those years apart) Me, through clenched teeth: Hello, R. R: Nice to see you got married and had some sons and a daughter. My child: Actually ma'am I'm non-binary. R: So you're a faggot? My child, with a bewildered look on their face: What the hell dude? I chose to be this way. R: Hey if your parents knew better they would throw you on the streets. So, are you ready to order? Me: After what you said to my child, no. R, getting confrontational: Then why the fuck were you looking at the menu?! My son: Ma'am, I understand that you and my father didn't have the best relationship when you were younger, but me and my siblings are just trying to enjoy our birthday, so can you please just calm down? R looks at my son for 5 seconds not blinking once before abruptly saying "Get the fuck out of here" which quickly turned into yelling after we refused. While she was yelling, her manager overheard and approached her. Manager: R! WTF do you think you're doing?! R: Um...uh... s-sir. I-I was... Manager: You know what R I don't even wanna hear it. You're fired! R, holding back tears: Yes sir. She walks out the door before bawling her eyes out in the waiting area. The manager apologizes to us and I say that I was used to it when I worked with her, with my child adding that I and the manager were both "victims of her game". He then brings over our replacement waitress, my niece, and my daughter asked her about R. She said that she was in an "on" part of an on-again, off-again heroin addiction (which explains the size of her pupils, violent itching, and, to a lesser extent, her attitude) and spent all of her breaks in the bathroom (constipation is a side effect of heroin abuse). She then said that she would share more when she got off work that Friday (every Friday I and my in-laws have a get-together where we usually talk, drink and play cards against humanity and the kids either play outside or watch KZbin depending on the weather). Friday comes and I ask my niece about R once more. Turns out she is an estranged mother who was kicked out by her husband, no longer gets to see her son, spent the rest of her money on stupid amounts of heroin, and lives with her father in his very small, very cramped apartment (as if she wasn't adding enough to her Loona character). She also said that she had worked several other jobs before BWW but either quit or was fired 2-3 weeks in. She was even carrying a knife when she worked at Walmart but claimed it was for self-defense. Whether or not this was true, she got the boot. As for working at BWW? Well, let's just say she was like James Corden. She would constantly order the wait staff around as if she was the manager, called my niece a faggot multiple times (she is in fact a lesbian), and when a customer would speak negatively to or about her she would either, A: Intentionally bring them out the wrong food, B: Demand that another waitress take her place, C: Yell at them because apparently they're the asshole in the situation, or D: Straight up ignore them regardless of whether or not they ordered. Me and my family of course got secret (possibly new) choice E: being yelled at to leave. Did I mention she was hired there less than a week earlier? A week later, I got in touch with R's ex-husband, and he explained that after the electrical company that we both worked at shut down, she hooked up with him as a "coping mechanism." Before either of them knew it, they found themselves as the bride and groom at a shotgun wedding (forced by R's father), had a son together, 14 years later got kicked out by him after R tried to kill their son in a drunken rage after he came out as gay (which could explain her interactions with my child and niece), but was tased by her husband before she could get to him (his father was a cop, gave him the taser before he died). Ironically, he said that she was wearing a Judas Priest shirt while she was doing so. He has since remarried, and his second wife is much kinder and accepting of her now stepson. Another week later, R's heroin addiction got the best of her, and she overdosed on it alone in her dad's house while he was out eating lunch with her brother. She is dead. She was 42. Her death was ruled a suicide after she was deemed unemployable everywhere. Buffalo Wild Wings was the last job she ever worked at. I was asked by her brother if I wanted to come to the funeral, don't think I could have said "no" quicker. TL;DR: Met my divorced, homeless, bigoted, broke, heroin-addicted former co-worker at Buffalo Wild Wings, gets fired shortly thereafter for unprofessionalism and threatening customers and staff, niece and co-workers ex-husband live to tell the tale. 2 weeks later, committed suicide by heroin OD, dies alone at 42. Edit: Forgot to mention that for R's funeral, she was cremated but with an evil but well-deserved twist. Her ex (were friends now) said that she did want to be cremated, but wanted her ashes to be placed in a super expensive urn that she had her eyes on for a while. Instead of getting the expensive urn, let alone one that was within his price range, he, his second wife, and their son took the bag that the ashes were in, dumped them in the toilet and before he flushed, the son, (now 20) said "If you weren't such a homophobic, irresponsible, horrid excuse of a person, none of this would be happening." R's father didn't seem to mind either. Pro gamer move.

One of my worst bullies, shortly after high school, had a meeting with me while we were at a party. We both looked at each other and he had this awful, defeated look on his face. I remember that look in his eyes that he wanted to say 'I'm sorry' so badly. High school does things to kids who are going through rough stuff and though he absolutely made my life hell, and I didn't have to, I got him a beer, we cheers'd, and he's been one of my closest friends since. No one has defended me as hard as the one bully who made my life hell. Sometimes all it takes is to leave a place filled with peer pressure for these bullies to realize they don't need to be rotten to get validation. Sometimes all it takes is a smile, a beer, and an olive branch. Not excusing his actions, nor condoning we should all forgive and forget. Hell no. Some people are rotten as kids and rotten as adults. But bullies are kids. Sometimes a bully just needs a wake up call or, in my friend's case, getting a therapist. Love you, buddy. You were a dickhead though.

I had many bullies growing up until highschool My 3rd grade teacher once made me cry after she threw away my drawing because apparently I wasn't supposed to be drawing and she was proud about it when talking to my mom. In the 4th grade I had to leave schools because I would be bullied by this one boy and my teacher never did anything about it the bully would call me a cry baby and just insult me we went to the same middle school however he never bothered me then. In middle school I had two bully accounts one in math class where this guy told me to get a life in a rude manor making me yet "I HAVE A LIFE" and him and his friends made fun of me for the rest of the school year and they even lied to a sub however I told the truth and he took my side. Lastly I was in orchestra during my last year of middle school where this girl was rude to me, during our last school concert my group was done and waiting for the others to finish and she was taking pictures and when I told her to stop she wouldn't and I used my orchestra binder to block her one for her to grab it from me and I snap. The principal came and talked to us and I started balling and she lied about what happened and me and my family had to leave the concert early, safe to say my last concert for orchestra in general was my worst one.

Ugh... The adult videotape one reminded me of something really annoying that happened to me when I was in highschool. Once a friend gave me a DVD telling me to watch it because it was hilarious. At the time, my laptop didn't have a DVD player, so I could only watch it in the living room. What I didn't know was that it was an ecchi anime DVD. My uncle's wife was in the living room in the middle of the day because she doesn't work, so at first I was thinking of waiting for her to go away before playing the DVD, but she wouldn't go away and was just hovering around and asked me what I was doing. I hesitated because I knew it was an anime DVD and anime can be questionable at times, but I thought nah, my friend would've warned me if there was anything indecent, right? WRONG! My aunt wouldn't go away and she saw me with a DVD already and it would be too suspicious if I didn't start playing it and I really didn't think it was going to be too bad. BOY was I wrong. The first scene that came up was a lady with a miniscule red dress getting off a sports car in high heels. Her big boobs were bouncing with each step she took and you could even see the silhouette of her nipples too. I immediately hit stop and I mumbled while nervously laughing: "my friend lent me this DVD, maybe he gave me the wrong one 😅" I took the DVD out and bolted out of there. Later my aunt told my grandma I was watching porn. My grandma called me to give me a "talk" 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

That didn't happen, but what did happen was he got whacked in his mid 20s in late 2011 over a motorcycle sale that went bad and it was even on the news. He also had a brother who committed suicide in 2001 by self ignition in a gas station over gambling debts.

No idea what happened, and didn't really think about it at the time. Evidently his family had moved away. Years later and I saw a news article with his face all over it. He's an honest-to-God "Florida Man" now, lol. Doing time for a traffic stop which culminated in him chasing a police dog for 6 blocks with a weed whacker, lol. I love telling that story, it made everything else completely worth it. When I read that article, I can't describe the feeling... somehow it was "shock" but also a complete lack of surprise.

Tastes like Pinesol mixed with white wine. I just might have to make a trip to Jungle Jim's to pick up a bottle. You know Malort has to taste really bad to make Retsina shine!

My High school bully died in December 2014, I actually encountered him in middle school he approached me and told me “If you where a (British cigarette) back in the day would had been dead by now,” he called me the F word(British Cigarette), one time I just ignored him calling me that and passed by him. Later I got a GF to prove him wrong but he wasn’t mad because of that is because he’s also against interracial also hate mixing, he was one of those bigots. So later he tried to accuse me of being an illegal immigrant and that my parents work for the cartels since I had an iPhone and basic clothes, he made statements about my parents salary and them being on food stamps. Once again I prove him wrong the reason why my family was middle class is because my dad is a truck driver and makes a lot of cash. Not only that but I showed both the principal and him my birth certificate, so the principal can suspend him for false accusations and had to make a statement about me since everyone in school where actually bullying me about my citizenship status and had to put a stop, it was getting annoying. During the summer practice, apparently he and his friend jumped a student, they put one of those small traffic cones up his butt, and cause a whole ruckus in the school and they where charged and suspended. The good news I didn’t dealt with him throughout my senior year and I got other stories, but let’s focus on him. He did graduate to another school still under school suspension, he went to college and on December 2014 a hurricane hit Texas and he was one of the victims that died, I got the news from a friend on Xbox live, so I searched his name on FB and found him, including post from his friends and family to rest in peace. His mother posted where they are going to have the eulogy and funeral, I actually went and I wasn’t sad or made a scene. Oh boy seeing him in that coffin, I just wanted to spit or so something but I didn’t, I just had the last laugh.

I was a jerk and a bully in school I was also bullied in school so it all goes around.

On the “it doesn’t always work out” lines : had this piece of work at school, the type who never studied, disrupted class, went out of his way to make people feel awful and yet all the girls flocked to him because he was sporty. He somehow got good grade at the end of school but completely disappeared (in uk we go to college and there is only a handful where I live and we all know where we all went). After finishing uni and getting a small job, I see on Instagram that he was paying for all the popular girls from school to go to Dubai all expensive paid. Turns out his job is literally to show people on social media how amazing living in Dubai is and he gets paid an absolute fortune to do it.

This might not be the whole story. It's not over until it's over. And you don't know what bad things might be happening to him.

Roald Dahl the children's author had the same reaction about his school headmaster (principal for Americans), when he realised that the guy became Archbishop of Canterbury and crowned Queen Elizabeth II in Westminster Abbey in 1953. The guy was pretty heavy-handed when he caned students apparently.

[@SynthwaveKiller]

I had a childhood neighborhood bully who was a bit older than the rest of us, and much bigger. He would sneer at everybody and try to start fights. Most of the kids and parents hated him. Only a couple of other neighborhood bullies liked him and got along with him. A decade and a half later he parked on some train tracks and mistakenly got hit by a train. It killed him and he ended up on a local news website. Great karma!

[@kylemarkley7170]

some of these are the PERFECT example of the idea that the best revenge is living well, like #10.

[@javierpatag3609]

That guy whose dad was complaining about Paul Teutul Sr. of American Choppers- dad shouldn’t feel bad. Paul has a terrible relationship with his family, and his motorcycles are more for show, and not something hardcore bike people look up to.

So there are those who didn't changed and kept being a jerk, those who sort of redeemed themselves and the one who only became a better person thanks to brain damage. Honestly doesn't know what to make of it.

Well, I did met him a couple of time because this is a small city. He is right now on Québec's Most Wanted list. Was in prison for lot of things... If you can read french, just look for All Boivin Québec

[@Emily-cw7tj]

Did it surprise you that he was still causing trouble though?

[@maximetremblay6424]

@@Emily-cw7tj Not at all. His father was a known criminal for organized crime. He ended up dead in the middle of the wood. All was weird in his bully way. He would bully you, but if someone else was bullying you he would defend you nail and tooth. One of us was stabbed at school, he went completely berserk and was breaking down door to find the stabber. Believe me, All was full muscle 6'1 guy. If he found the stabber (a small guy), he would have been accused of murder much more earlier. I was falsely accused of wanting to go bombing school ( you know the tall silent guy who know way too much in science and get bullied stereotype? Yes that was me. Also the school atmosphere was really on edge after the stabbing event) , he helped me broke in the principal office to take the ''investigation files'' so we would be able to debunk it. He was an helpful bully
