There is always a guilty pleasure when bullies get what's coming to them

[AZLD4Candidate]

This guy was one of my worst bullies in high school. He also wasn't bright. He tried to start a fight with me standing in front of down staircase.

He belittled me, called me a complete loser, and turned friends of mine against me. He, and most of my teachers, called me a failure. Most of my teachers said I would amount to nothing and would probably be in prison by 25 after flunking out of college.

This I am having a major guilty pleasure reading.

1. Life has a strange way of evening the score sometimes.

Some call it karma. Regression toward the mean.

[Heartstrings]

2. Revenge is a dish best served cold.......nt

[JHB]

21. But a dash of hot sauce is fine.

[Heartstrings]

24. Absolutely!

[Skittles]

3. WTF was wrong with your teachers?

[AZLD4Candidate]

4. Anti-Semitism along with the "you're not from here" mentality

Provincialism at its worst.

[Skittles]

5. oh wow

I am so so sorry you had to deal with that.

I was a GI brat who moved constantly, and I liked to hammer the bullies I saw in every school (and yes, they are in every school). I had a distinct advantage in the actions I took because I knew I would never be staying long. It's how I developed my kick-ass persona.

14. That is disgusting. I would never...

... imagine such behavior. Disgusting.

6. It's a shame you're wasting guilt on what should be pure pleasure. There are many

books and audio presentations and even therapists to help you...

[rebe303]

19. I so agree!😑

[FakeNoose]

7. For your benefit only, I hope there are classmates who remember when he taunted you

I hope they realize that this guy is a total loser, and the awful things he did to you were the actions of a bully.
You are so much better than that!

8. Just straight up pleasure

Getting what he's obviously had coming to him for a long time. My guess, it's not his first arrest, just a big enough on to make the papers.

9. A local writer for the Pgh Post Gazette used to tell Carbon Man stories on WDVE

It was one redneck/hold my beer story after another.

After growing up on the border of Pennsyltucky, I knew how those guys would get in to trouble and some of what you went through.

Provincialism, as you said above, is a shitty thing to experience when you're on the outside.

10. Your story stirred memories

I remember times when people were cruel to me, and I remember times when I was cruel to other people. The only times that I wish I could go back and change are the times the I was cruel.

11. I am sorry you had to endure that AZLD4.

He does not look like a very bright bulb and I am glad he was finally taken to task for his behavior.

And what on earth was up with your teachers? That is abhorrent behavior from people who are supposed to be educators. They should have lost their jobs for treating you that way. I believe you, but in a way it is unbelievable that any adult would really act that way.

I don't begrudge you your gloating over this person's misfortune. He deserves everything that he is getting.

12. The schoolyard bully ends up in jail for assault.

Who would have thought?

Makes you wonder what else he’s done and gotten away with. I hope he ends up sitting in jail for a long, long time.

[calimary]

22. Who would have thought, indeed.

Hopefully he’ll be out of commission for awhile. A LONG while.

[Joinfortmill]

13. Sweet, isn't it?

[sarcasmo]

15. Karma has been busy this year.

[Jon King]

16. Tessitore stated, "I'm going to shoot you," to which the victim responded, "go ahead."

Well....he is a man of his word though.....this sounds like quite a neighborhood.

17. BEAUTIFUL, I love these kind of things ... Thanks for sharing!!! 👍😊 nt

18. Karma is wonderful. I developed a way of dealing with playground bullies who wanted to fight.

I quickly learned that the ones who wanted a physical fight were not that smart. I could "fake kick" at them in a way that I didn't make contact & allowed me to set up a sturdy stance. I was basically baiting them & every time they instinctively responded by kicking back, which was exactly what I wanted because I jumped back while extending my hands to grab their ankle, which I gripped firmly & leaned back pulling hard. That caused them to fall on their ass & resulted in me dragging them around in the dirt while they thrashed about & yelled. It worked every time. If you fight with intelligence, you don't need brute force.

20. I would bet $1 that

he has some unreported rapes in his past.

I remember a co-worker telling me of the closure she had just received from haveing the dud who raped her in high school executed for murder. Now that's a guilty pleasure, butonly because the death penalty is bad. I was proud that she tristed me to tell me.

23. When I was in HS, he beat his girlfriend and insulted her every chance

But he was "so dreamy looking." He took her virginity and really bragged about making her "scream for her life."

[soldierant]

25. Yup.

[Demobrat]

26. OMG. I hope she got away from him

without too much permanent damage.

[AZLD4Candidate]

27. I don't know. But people like that tend to focus on those with personality defects

they can exploit. And she was a really insecure girl who fell for the looks, the body, and the fact he played the right “game" by being the sensitive, caring guy until he "de-flowered" her.

Then he turned into a domineering, abusive monster. Psychopaths have the biological advantage to produce more testosterone so people tend to be subconsciously drawn to them.

28. I love it when

Bullies suffer because of thier actions.

I used to protect the scapegoated kids in school,and I also was scapegoated.

I tried to form a self protective group to take the abusive assholes down.

The saddest part is many of the scapegoated kids
In my school were too afraid to do it.
So I did it myself.

When I saw a bully cornering or hitting a kid I tore them off the kid and knocked him off balance into a wall.

I said fight me instead you chicken shit.

The bullies in the school after that fought me in packs knowing 1 on 1
I could win.

But when I could I would go after the ringleader. Take the ringleader and beat his ass the group usually scattered.

I hate dark triad people with the rage of a million suns.
