Remembering a bully

[tiredmike59]

I guess everyone has encountered one at some time or another,even bullies had bullies. My bully looked like Lumpy Rutherford on Leave it to beaver,and I was about Beavers size. The first time I saw him he hit me in the eye with one of those green pinecones at the bus stop,my eye was blood red for a week. His name was Tuber,(pronounced too-ber) everyone called him tubber behind his back. The only times I had to deal with him on a regular basis was on saturdays, bowling league. He was always doing things to people, He used a new bowling ball of one of my friends without asking and put a gash in it and didn't apologize. He would always help himself to someones soda and of course they didn't want it after that walrus dipped his snout in it. He had a new pair of tennis shoes,the expensive kind, I think they were Pumas. While he was bowling I kept looking back at them thinking, " Man,he has some big feet " His shoes looked like a couple of canoes docked underneath that chair. Thats when I got an idea. I went to the snackbar and got two of those big rods of Bubs daddy sour apple gum. When I got back,everyone started mooching for some, so I broke off enough hunks for everybody,including Tuber. While he was bowling, I pretended to look for another ball at the ball rack, I dragged out one of his shoes and took the big wad of gum from my mouth,rolled it around in my fingers till it got nice and sticky,then dropped it all the way in to the tip of his shoe. I put the shoe back, Finished my last frame of the game and went up to return my rental shoes. I hurried back and hid behind the ball rack just in time to see him shoving his fat foot into his shoe. He was twisting and tugging trying to get his foot in. Then he pulled his foot out and his sock came off, It was hanging out of his shoe by a long strand of sour apple gum. He goes, " What the F...? " I was glad that bowling alley was noisey, he couldn't hear me laughing, I was also glad I gave everyone some gum so I wouldn't be his only suspect. I felt good,made me forget about my crappy bowling scores. His family moved to Houston not long after that.

I had two instances where I was bullied, but the one I most memorable was one day back in 1994 recess had ended and I went to join my class because when recess had ended you were suppose to form in a line with your class I suppose so they were sure that everyone was there, I don't know. Anyway, as I stepped off the playground I was surrounded by this group of girls and they had asked me a math question and wouldn't I couldn't answer they started laughing at me which annoyed me. Afterwards, I tried to push my way through them which didn't work and they knocked me down on the blacktop and started kicking me all over, thankfully my face was protected when they did so it remained untouched. Soon after this happened, a few of my classmates had found me and got them away from me. Later that night when my mom saw me, I had bruises all over my legs and the upper part of my body. It is a moment in my life that I have never forgotten, nor will I ever forget.

It is kind of a blur now but my bully David Rudrud knocked me down in 7th grade. Karma came around to him when he was 19/20 as he was at a party and got shot in the keister-rear end, nothing serious but I felt satisfied.
In 11th grade there was Dana Sneath who was more of a pest than a bully but one day he got me so psyched out I knocked him on his keister and everything was fine after that.

I hope schools are more strict about bullies these days

I know a bit of what you mean. Tiffany Simmons was more of a pest to me than really a bully she knew how to get under my skin which is the worst thing you can do I realize because then they know that they can get to you and will annoy you even further because they can. Anyway, at the end of the year while watching one of the senior videos that was playing on the tv I made a comment about how pathetic I thought it was and she went 'so are you' and something about her saying that just snapped something and I threw down my bookbag and told her to fight me and she just stood there laughing at me, and didn't make any move to do anything. My teacher got stepped between us and put a stop to it, so I dropped it. Later I saw Tiffany again standing by the bathroom while I picked up my graduation gown and heard her softly mutter the word 'b***h" to me and I just walked away.

It was in that moment I realized that I had humilated her in front of her friends and proved that she was a chickens**t which I can live with that.

As for if school have become more stict, I hope they have too. I think it is horrible what some schools let kids get away with these days.
