Dirty laundry: 5 bullies you've known and hated.

1) NAJ: Teased me all the way through high school. Punched me in the kidney IN class, lied about it, and called practically the whole school around to point out I was crying because I couldn't stand up from pain. Made me ask 'permission' to talk in the hallways.

2) DQP: Found out I was Colombian and asked me if I'd floated over in a monkey crate. The whole class, and teacher, laughed at my expense. I complained and was told to 'suck it up'

3) KEP: Told everybody the letter my (only) 10th grade girlfriend had written me was really written by my sister. Made fun of my every morning at before-school breakfast for eight consecutive weeks so badly I 'hid' every morning underneath a stairwell for the rest of 10th and most of 11th grade. Was a girl!

4) TUH: When I was hiding in the bathroom stall with a bloody nose (10th grade) called all his friends in and told them I was masturbating. Called me Jerkoff-Jay for two years. Was actually my friend before telling a bunch of lies about waht a freak I was.

5) JHW: Threw my baseball cap out of the 3rd floor in 11th grade geometry and knocked a desk-chair combo-thingy over on me, punched me in the eye. Stabbed me in the leg with a pen. Would forget he was bullying me for a few weeks sometimes, almost become friends, and then do something really, really fucking horrible to me.

Fucking assholes, I hope they all die.

Let it go. they're all pumping gas or beating their wives or getting ass-raped in prison by now.

Haha, I had a feeling this would be a Remy thread!

This is cathartic for me!

― Remy (x Jeremy), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 20:59 (twenty years ago)

suck it up, remy!

My bully was arrested and jailed for selling oxycodone from her pharmacist's assistant job.

― The Milkmaid (of Human Kindness) (The Milkmaid), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:00 (twenty years ago)

I'm not really upset about any of these. I was just sharing in the hopes that all of ILX would trump me as 'more bullied' with their stories.

― Remy (x Jeremy), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

you should find their addresses and mail them a cut out high school yearbook photo of themselves, with their eyes filled in with red marker and a trail of red running down like tears from each eye.

― gear (gear), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

I mentioned one here.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

I mean: here.

i can't remember most of their names.

weird that you know your bullies' middle initials?

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:03 (twenty years ago)

hmmm "more bullied"... I got it bad, but they've all kinda blended together in a haze of unpleasant memories I don't bother to think about anymore. But I was beaten, stabbed, kicked, publically humiliated, verbally abused, pantsed, stuck in a locker, smeared with food, you name it.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:03 (twenty years ago)

i remember my bully's name. "dad".

― gear (gear), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:04 (twenty years ago)

I can't think of five bullies who tormented me. There were people who called me "nigger" but they were all dealt with very swiftly via my Tattling Hare Style kung fu.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:06 (twenty years ago)

Most people who tried to bully me were verbally belittled and then attacked with blunt/sharp objects.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:06 (twenty years ago)

i remember that a lot of the bully kids started being friendly to me once they realized i didn't run away in terror like the other kids they picked on did.

― katrina vanden roffle (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:07 (twenty years ago)

(my graduating class only had 99 students in it… most of us had been together for 5 or 6 years… at a quaker school with 'nice' rich kids. one of the people on my list now owns a company valued at 10+ million dollars.)

Not a bully in the school sense, but in second year at uni I had an ex-Territorial Army flatmate. Was quite personable when he was getting laid, but otherwise he was a ball of frustration and rage. Terrible homophobe, racist, sexist pig. Went on about what a huge dick he had and how many girls he'd shagged. And banged on about shooting sheep with machine guns while in the TA. I'm sure the farmer thought it was hilarious. Treated his young and fucked up girlfriend like shit. Would get drunk and rant about Hitler having the right idea by euthanising disabled people. This was infront of another flatmate whose sister had special needs. I once disagreed with him about one of his sub-Littlejohn pronouncements and he nearly decked me. And if you need any further proof of his cuntishness he played terrible music and put salt on my plants!

a boy who used to bully me in primary school was arrested a couple of years ago for beating a blind man to death (with a brick)

Charles Weisfeld. He wore shades a lot and eventually went to help poor people in India.

Dick.

I googled the most prominent of my primary school bullies and got one hit, a recipe that she AND her son created. Sounds kind of cozy. I was hoping for something else.
I moved back to the place where I went to high school, and as bullies tend not to do much with their lives, several of them are still here. The worst high school bully's kid and my kid worked together for a while. I still avoid her. She's bad. Her kid's bad, too.

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 23:26 (twenty years ago)

Oh! I almost forgot! The worst bully of my kids' age group ended up enlisting in the Marines and going to Iraq! This is a kid who spewed all manner of racial slurs. Great representative of the States.

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 00:12 (twenty years ago)

The only kid who ever beat me up basically left me alone after the beating up. Even almost apologized for it at one point. He got expelled halfway through high school for selling speed or something. Much worse torment came from the snobby girls on my bus, who all sat together and gossipped and gaggled and usually ignored me but occasionally would decide to give me shit for being weird, to which I had no good response (I knew I was weird, what could I say?). It all pretty much blew over by senior year, though. I went to the prom with one of their friends.

1. The only son of the town's most prominent dentist;
2. The son of the town's most prominent hardware store owner;
3. & 4. Twin sons of one of the town's better-known plumbers.

(1-4 all hung out together and made my life miserable. One of the twins now owns a diner I used to like to eat at.)

5. My brother. He's the only one I really forgive, because I know why he was so full of hate. Plus, he was the only one whose nose I had a chance to break when he pushed me a little too far.

One of my bullies died in a car crash (caused by his own reckless driving) our senior year.

Mark Angle - tried to pick a fight with me every day in 7th grade gym class - I still don't know why - it was totally out of the blue, but fuckit, I only remembered that today so who cares ...

Jeff Schizano - aka "skizz" - fat rolypoly prick who tried to pick on me from junior high through high school. But he was really pathetic about it and one of the most hopeless bullies ever. He was the Cartman of my school. Sad in a way. Complete fucking twat in another way. He may be dead now.

two of my bullies died in a car crash too (in the same accident). we'd made up a long time before though, and they were the first people i really knew well who died (when we were year 11). sad. i hadn't thought about that for a long time.

― gem (trisk), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 01:17 (twenty years ago)

JC, who sat one chair ahead of me in HS band and made me miserable for a couple of years with her mocking and public humiliation. In all fairness, I'm sure I gave her lots of material. Eventually I realized that a) she had a cruel older brother and she thought that's how you treated younger people you kind of liked but wanted to toughen up and b) when I passed out from heatstroke while standing at attention she was the first to notice and made sure someone caught both ME and my new trumpet.

― Laurel, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 01:21 (twenty years ago)

when i was in 8th grade there was this kid that tormented me every day for about three months until i finally had enough and rammed him head first into a locker. people kinda left me alone for the rest of high school.

A girl who was quite unpleasant to me in high school (never actively bullied me really but was nasty and didnt like me at all) suddenly appeared as a new recruit at my WORKPLACE about a year after school ended. We were civil to each other for qute a while but then one day, for no reason, she started sort of exaggeratedly laughing at me, like really wouldnt-shut-up loud harsh "ha ha" laughing. It was annoying, so I told her to shut it. She stopped, her face went all stony and she walked right up to me and said "come on bitch, whats your problem? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" and started really going off at me :/

It didnt help that the rest of the (male) staff started hooting and shouting "fight, fight!".

So I just walked out of the room and went home. Fuck that shit, it stays in highschool.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 05:23 (twenty years ago)

I laid out my bully on the first day of high school. I could see where things were going - shitweasel was going to try to make my life hell - and so I bounced him on his head. I got a detention but it was worth it. Assduke didn't mess with me ever again.

if you have friends at the IRS, you may be able to fuck up this bastard REAL good.

just sayin'!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 06:24 (twenty years ago)

I was never really bullied. The only nasty remark I ever got, was behind my back, but my friend told me. A guy said to my friend she better not hang around or they would think she was a lesbian. It was just too hilarious for words. He was so trying so hard to cultivate a porn moustachio, I understand where this was coming from. He actually wanted to get together with her but he knew he didn't have a chance to chat her up when I was around. But anyway I was never bullied. Others were, but not by me. I remember one girl who was bullied by a lot of pupils and the rest just standing around. It was so sad to see, but I realized I coudln't really do anything. She changed schools the next year, I think.

What a sensitive topic for Nu Nu ILX to be discussion. I started to write about high school bully types in my last piece for Plan B, but had to edit out all of the good bits really.

A lot of people tried to bully me during my childhood and adolesence. Especially after we moved to America. I was weird, I was chubby, I was intelligent, I was English, I had an *accent* - that made me different enough to be a target for every bit of pre-teen nastiness. I don't like to dwell on specific incidents, the name-calling, the hair-pulling, the kicking and the daily ritual of busride humiliation. It's gone, over my shoulder.

But I still carry around a lot of rage about it. And perhaps that's why I react so badly to bullies now. My reaction is to kick straight back, stand up for myself, rather than ignore it or walk away. It made me stubborn.

Part of it is a "Fuck you, I can get out of here, I can leave your small town and your small minds behind" - that was what the article was about. My best friend from my teenage years and I looking up these cunts on the internet, and they're in jail or pumping gas, while we're sitting in a posh hotel in London drinking champagne with rock stars. But another bit part of it is "You don't intimidate me, you can't make me leave, I have as much right to be here as you do, and if you don't like me, that's YOUR problem, not mine."

After you've had bullying attempts a couple of times, you start to notice a pattern. It never fails to astonish me how *uncreative* most bullies are. Their behaviour is so predictable, which is also their weakness. I know, with the perspective of age, that bullying says more about the bullier than the bullied.

The anxieties of adolescence:

1) You're Fat/Ugly - this one speaks for itself. It's just so... I don't know, obvious. The first few times I got called "fat" it really hurt me. Then one day it clicked, why should I be bothered by it? If it's a statement of fact, why should it be any more hurtful than someone saying "you're blonde!" or "you're green eyed!" It stopped being an insult.

2) You're homosexual/your sexuality is unconventional. Effeminate boys get called gay, non-traditional females get called lesbians. Adolescents are big balls of anxiety about their own sexuality.

3) You're an Outsider, your nationality/accent/colour of your skin is "wrong". Adolescents are herd animals. Differentness threatens and any obvious difference becomes something that marks you out as scapegoat.

Once you started spotting the patterns in bullies, they rather lost any power over you.

I didn't get physically bullied at school because I was big and weird. There was this horrible kid w/the same initials as me, who was very quick witted, and smart, and liked to put people down. He had a go at me for a while, but also many others. Hitting him would not have made any difference - I remember watching some other kid he was putting down beat the shit out of him, he got straight back up and started taking the piss again. Unbelievable. I heard some years ago that he o/d-ed. I can't say I felt too upset about it, my memories of him are of an unbelievably horrible shit.

My wife was really surprised when I told her a few stories about school, she didn't think boys really had their heads flushed down toilets, that it was just an urban legend. Hah.

Unfortunately most of the shitbags who did this stuff (that I've heard about since) are doing really well in swanky jobs, so I'm denied any kind of satisfaction.

I was a bit of a shit to some of the younger kids myself when I was in the 5/6th form but at least I just punched them on the arm a few times if they were cheeky, I stopped short of throwing them in baths full of piss.

I just can't quite imagine the kids I had trouble with at school as fully grown adults. It's terrifying and hilarious in equal measure.

I used to be chubby and wierd so I got bullied a lot as a kid starting in 4th grade. Then I started stabbing people with sharp objects, mostly pencils and sticks. After that they only came after me in packs. A few times I was able to find a few of those people and kick their asses one on one and that really helped end that. I only got in a few fights because of that in high school, once when I beat up one person who was screwing with me and then when he got his friend to beat me up. That pretty much resulted in a truce. The only person I could google seems to be some kind of college women basketball player. Yep I got punched in the mouth by a basketball player girl once, she was a fucking gorilla. Funny enough this was while I was walking home and a totally different bully appeared a few blocks later and he followed me wanting to beat me up. I kept walking and when he caught up I dropped my bag on the ground and glared at him, he was like "why is there blood on your mouth" and that made him back away and leave.
