11. About being a bully
Sun Jun 22, 2025, 03:52 AM

If you beat someone up too badly you will eventually lose. You can beat someone to the extent that they form a grudge against you and you can beat someone to the extent that they seek revenge. That revenge can come in any form and at any time. When a victim eventually hides around a dark corner with a two by four and brutally exacts revenge, the bully will fear walking around dark corners. When a victim drops something from above the bully will always be looking up and trip over anything by always looking up.
