Anyone ever notice how sensitive and easily scared bullies are?
So lisa and i are on the subway and inevitably someone shakes their head at us in disapproval or tries to intimidate us by staring us down.

I turn around, put my hand on my hips and stare back.

They literally get SO disturbed and panicked looking.

Its hillarious especially considering how tiny I am. I mean if you are scared of someone who is 5 feet tall, what kind of a coward are you?


:rofl:

1. Bravo.
Most bullies are not used to being confronted. Calling them on their bullying, especially in public like you did, is unsettling for them.

Well done!

2. Good for you!

Yes, many bullies, when you stand up to them, cower and tuck their tail between their legs.

Unfortunately, in the workplace that may be difficult to do unless you're willing to risk your job.

4. This thread is scaring me!
I suppose when that person got to his or her destination, he told everyone how he stared done a couple of sinners and gleefully described the posthumous unpleasantries that await.

8. Really? I've never found that to be the case.
Edited on Thu Sep-20-07 08:24 AM by seawolf
I tried to break a guy's finger in 7th grade because he and a couple of his buddies never stopped hassling me, even if I was bawling my head off.

Didn't work in either sense. They didn't stop hassling me, and the finger didn't get broken.

And I caught hell about it from my parents, too.

30. Thank you for not taking that crap.
Bullies aren't used to being confronted. Strong people catch them off guard. Thank you for doing that. :thumbsup:
