Bullies seem to always find a way to get there way. The 'ignore them' thing never worked for me either.

Uh oh...

You know, this is why I learned to kick them in the nads.

Ozy reminds me of a classmate I had in high school. Saying "sorry" for every little thing, even when the situation wouldn't normally require an apology.

I got bullied once at elementary. In the end, I fought back. :|

I guess my schools didn't have any severe bullies. I got picked on and was too puny to dissuade them, but I didn't fear any bullies because they didn't cause much physical pain. They were just nuisances.

So I don't know how I would've dealt with someone like Jeremy. Maybe hare spray. (flap flap flap flap)

I got verbally bullied.

That might be one reason I'm in this other school...

Poor Jeremy though, if he's not taught that assault and battery are wrong at this age, as soon as he's not a kid anymore, he'll be in jail for 20 years or so.

I've always found it strange that the same people who find it cute when a kid or group of kids smashes another kids face in, are usually the same ones who are paranoid about every little other thing in the world.

Bullying sucks. Luckily I haven't been bullied since Grade 4. Poor Ozy, I hope he can escape the beating.

Bullies are, in my opinion, evil in its purest form. To quote Blanche DuBois from A Streetcar Named Desire, "Deliberate cruelty is unforgivable." And that's just what bullying is.

Thanks to my having Asperger's Syndrome, I suffered a lot of bullying when I was in school, with the worst of it during my middle school years. They didn't know about the condition, but my being different still showed, and it made me a target. I will never understand what motivates them to go out of their way just to hurt people. Sure, I know in my mind that they do it to show people that they can, but in my heart, it just doesn't make sense. It may explain it, but it doesn't justify it.
It is a mistake to fancy that horror is associated inextricably with darkness, silence, and solitude. I found it in the glare of midafternoon, in the clangour of a metropolis...

Does anybody find it cute? I thought that the worst adults simply didn't care enough to stop it.

I've been verbally bullied behind my back for about 2 years now. Luckily, now I have enough friends to ignore the rumors and freezing out of the populars. I also got teased in second grade. I burst out crying in the lunch line that time.

Bullies are terrible.
