Indeed and one of the main reasons we have such a problem with it in this country is that a lot of people either can’t or won’t recognize it for what it is.

Not quite revenge but I eventually stopped my bully by hitting her - I’m not proud of it and don’t recommend it as a way to deal with bullying but it did stop her in her tracks and she never went near me again.

The weird thing about some adult bullies is life simply didn't knock the edges off them in any way and they were just as bad a bully in their 30s 40s and beyond as they were when in school as a teenager. I know a few lads from school who were pr!cks and they used to mess a lot and yes, even give other lads a hard time but generally, or at least in my own experience, when I see some of these lads as 35yr old men, they openly greet me warmly and ask how im doing. I always speak back but never get too invested in them. I don't know if its a bloke thing of just pretending that they were not bullies when we were kids or have they just grown up and just want to shoot the breeze.

The character to really unnerve me is that guy who used to beat you up as a kid and make your life a total misery and despite going through life with a wife and a few kids and a mortgage and all the crap that tends to go with being an adult, is STILL a ferocious and relentless bully in all of their dealings with other people from a work and social capacity. Its as if they are the exact same person as 17 only in an adult body. I despise such people.

What's the big mystery?

They are bad people, they were bad as kids, they are bad still

Early hours of the morning on the way back to Dublin form the Debs

The " coolest " guy there, he was actually 2 years older and only at the Debs because his girlfriend was younger, Anyway he was at the front of the bus shouting abuse at one of my mates who was quite but a very funny guy down the back, they lived near each other and he gave this guy abuse for years growing up .,

It was relentless tirade of abuse and he had all his cronies laughing and "woowing" at each comment,

The quite guy sat there with a smile face even though the abuse was terrible harsh, it was odd as he always had a quick comeback,

Anyway when the guys finishes and goes to sit down with all his groonies patting him on the back ,
The quite guy stand up and shouts down the us " Heeeeeeeey Gary " everyone turns in amazement to see what is he going to say ,

He proceeds' with, " Do you recall about a month ago you would have woke up one Sunday morning to find a Human s*it in your prooch, "

There's a pause you can tell Gary remembers this incident , bus goes quite , The quite guy continues " well it was MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE "

The whole bus erupts in screaming and chatting the quite guys name,

I was truly Epic but somewhat disgusting , None of them had told a sole before about this,

He found a shyte in his what? He's quite a guy? I thought he was a bully?

WHAT?

There’s never any need for revenge once one realizes the harshness and abuse that bullies received themselves, mostly in their own homes.

Loada bollix

I was viscously bullied at the age of twenty while working overseas, bully in that case happened to have a foaming at the mouth hatred of irish catholics, she didn't strike me as having self esteem issues

Bullies bully because they are bad people who take pleasure in what they do.

No great mystery

And so you believe people derive a scathing hatred of Irish Catholics in a foreign country from nothing ?

I only know the story of two of the girls who bullied me.

One shot a guy when she was fifteen received hardly any sentence though. And she remained in the neighborhood still intimidating people. I was locking up the place where i worked one night and I saw this kid alone. So i went over. Then she came out of another business and appeared to be with the child. She screamed at me and threatened me. So obviously she hadn't learnt anything.

One actually became a nice person. She was always very troubled though and at least when she was young dabbled in drugs. She had been best friends with the girl who committed murder. She wasn't a mean spirited girl though but easily led. She was fine on her own. But she killed herself.

And no I wasn't happy about either scenario.

I have actually never done anything but be nice to bullies.

Because its not as simple as "they were bad as kids" in 100% of the cases. Of course some people are horrible from birth to death but a lot of the acts of aggression from kids and teenagers are due to some intolerable family situation- abuse, having no money but trying to pretend to their mates that they do, having to grow up fast due to death of parent, a teacher treating them bad, etc etc etc. They can react to this by lashing out but when they are adults they often make better decisions and gradually grow into the person they are meant to be, often with regret about the past.
Again, this isn't the case all the time but definitely some of the time.

Think the happiest I have ever seen a bullied person was when he gave a job to his bully in the most menial position in the company he was the Owner of.

He was not cruel to the former bully - did not give him a hard time - nothing. Just gave him a job - seemingly after his being unable to find a job for some time.

I guess he derived some satisfaction from knowing that he went on to become a financially successful owner of fairly profitable and successful company - while his former bully was cleaning his toilets and delivering his mail. He needed no revenge or closure or payback after that.

that Biff, what a card :pac:

Had a lad from school come up to me in a bar before about 12 years after left to apologize for being a bully in school. And how he was.

I looked at him and said don't worry about it man sure that was school.

Tbh I don't even recall him bullying me. Was the prick the odd time but blew him off to his face.

So I walked away and laughed thinking this fella must have had that plaguing him since then I don't even remember it.

Excellent

Denis O'Brien's revenge on the O'Reilly family (who had used their Independent Newspapers rags to repeatedly undermine O'Brien's commercial challenge to O'Reilly) was quite impressive, even if people who don't remember the O'Reillys' thuggery think O'Brien was a worse oligarch.

Yes, it cost O'Brien about €500 million or so, but he brought Anthony O'Reilly and all his notions and arrogance to his knees. The finer details of O'Brien's revenge were also admirable, such as refusing to sack Anne Harris (who had authorised many articles demonising O'Brien's challenge to O'Reilly's interests) as he'd have to pay her compensation.

Oh yes, quite the chap to look up to.

The best revenge is living well.

Keep your ear to the ground and if an opportunity arises do make good with it.

No offense but if you think this you might not have experienced someone destroying your life and body by inhuman treatment.

And not everyone has the means to live well.

Some people have not been able to walk again at the hands of bullies.

If you are talking normal teasing I would say suck it up buttercup. Get over it.

ILoveYourVibes · 04-07-2019 07:50PM

The best revenge is not letting bullies do it again. And not letting it happen to anyone else again.

No bigots of any hue do, but they have the personality traits that turn information they learn or perceive into toxic behaviour.

Over 10% of western societal populations (bit higher in male, bit lower in female) exhibit either narcissistic personality disorder or antisocial personality disorder, or in other words, are sociopaths to varying degrees. Think about the numbers in your school, your workplace, your sports club, your family maybe. Those are your bullies.

Call them evil, call them bad people, call them misunderstood, call them a product of their environment, whatever helps you to cope with it, but there is no substitute to a massive punch in the face, either from you or someone on your behalf. It won't change their personality, but they will move on to someone else, cos even sociopaths don't like black eyes or chipped teeth.

Love hearing these.
Very subtle one I heard a while back about a man who met a childhood bully as an adult. He told the guy that he didn't hold what he done to him against him now. Not as cool as smashing his head in, but left the other guy in no doubt that he had been a cnut when he was younger. The bully didn't like it one bit, but couldn't say much.

Profound.

Stew in your bitterness all you want; it's what your past tormentors want to achieve.

I didn't mean living it up in a mansion, I meant treating yourself well and with a sense of purpose for your life.

I agree that victims of bullying are better to get over their ordeal but if for whatever reason they cannot, this doesn't absolve the bully, the bully deserves everything they get

I disagree. Tormentors want you to remain vulnerable and sweet. They want you to forget about it and move on. The last thing they want and the most thing they fear is your righteous anger.

And I know this from real life experience.

Its very emotionally crippling to know someone angry at you has the right to be so.

It's shaming to a bully.

In most cases you should move on.

But Ana Kreigal etc that was hardcore bullying.

The bully won't give a toss.

It's far better and much more important to get on with your life, live it well and not let this stuff eat away at you. Get counselling or whatever it is you need to help do that.

And I'm speaking from experience here.

12 years old and this older kid used to follow me towards my house trying to trip me up calling me names like Spock (I have pointy ears) and he done it for a long time often ending with me with bruised arms when he’d hit me etc.
Well one day I had enough when he tripped me and I got up off the ground and dropped him with one solid punch to his nose breaking it and him full of blood. I continued to hit him then to the point where I was screaming at him saying how do you like it now!!!
Anyway I went home covered in blood and told my mother. Of course she knew about this kid and gave me a hug saying it’s ok I’m proud of you.
Few mins later the door banged with his father and him crying at the door. His father says to my mother “ how do you like your sons handy work. He should be locked up etc.” Then my mother laughed and showed him my arms etc and said she couldn’t be happier that her son stood up to this little bástard of a bully and to get off the garden before my father gets home!!
She was proud and as shaken as I was I was happy. He never even looked at me again. And now I’m a hell of a lot bigger than him and he still turns his head away from me if I see him even though it’s Twenty years later.

They do. When that girl shot a guy and was intimidating me ...my other friend was the niece of the guy who was shot.

She got his mother to walk around with us once in front of the girl who did it.

She burst into tears. She went from the big deal who shot a guy to a shivering mess in seconds.

And let me tell you she was one hard bitch.

Think of it as the plot from I know what you did last summer.

My neighbour was an absolute scumbag and bully, and he made me afraid to leave the house as he would taunt and jeer me. He was from a scumbag family and they were very powerful in the area, and basically controlled the estate. I could never go out and play and had no friends in the area as I didn't go to school locally either. We fought physically once when he beat my dog with a stick and I gave him a black eye. He was shot dead just over a decade ago. Good enough for him and his family.

Any great bullying revenge stories?
