Pretty much all my life, I have had an issue with bullies. Not with people picking on or teasing me, but seeing people being picked on or teased. I just really can’t stand it, I don’t see the point of breaking someone down to feel better about yourself. I will admit, in middle school I was the new kid and some folks tried me. After turning the cheek a couple of time I had to do something about it, then we actually became cool. That’s how it works out sometimes as a kid.
You would think that as an adult you wouldn’t have to deal with these type of people anymore. I mean someone might lie you on or try to use you, but an actually bully after the age of 21? Bruh! WTF is you doing with yo life! So after some encounters in my youth and becoming a young adult, I realized that I was a bully myself. I was the bully that bullied bullies. When I saw someone being made fun of I would start to go all the way in on the bully. And I didn’t care how many times I had to crack on a bully, just as long as they left that person only and they knew that each time they came for that person, I was going to be there.
A situation happened at a competition where someone who didn’t win started to go in on someone that went to the next round. He called her names and said that she wasn’t talented, the whole 9. So I called him out, he got mad and contacted my Program Director and my General Manager. Of course I got called into the office and they asked if I knew the girl that the bully was talking about. I said NO I DON’T, what I do know is that she came to our competition, tried her best and got in. He’s salty because he didn’t make it. One, as a man there’s no way I’m going to standby and let another man talk badly about a woman because he is inadequate. Two, she didn’t do anything to him to make him lose, he did that on is own, so why bully her. If I were to just let all that happen, that speaks volumes about me.
So that brings me to the post below. One of my good friends were having a light hearted convo on facebook, when out of nowhere, this GUY decided to make a comment about her. This young lady is an awesome person, a mother, and again a friend. There’s no way I was going to see this and not comment. The internet has made some folks super brave because they don’t have to stand in front of a person and say what they really feel. I get that kids would do something like that, I get that some young adult would do the same. But when you’re a grown ass man trying to take jabs at people like a immature, petty, high school freshman. That’s really sad and it just puts you in a state of WOW!
The comments below were literally some years ago, but yesterday he was back and tried to take a jab once again. And of course I commented back, but he was a little smarter this time and deleted this initial comment. I should have screen shot it, but I didn’t. So since he thought he was slick, I figured I’d bring this back for him. Now the convo below, I was really excited about because I thought this was going to be a challenge. I’m a chess player, I thought this was going to be a verbal match that was going to be good to test my one liners and comebacks. But in my best Kevin Hart Voice “He wasn’t reeaadddyyyy!!!” I did blur the person that had this on their page and the person that THE GUY was speaking about, but I left his and my name. Why might you ask, because I do want to protect the innocent, and you could consider him and myself as guilty parties. Or maybe I’m just petty, lol. You be the judge, I don’t mind.
