I think you and a few others know as much about the type of bullying that goes on today as you do about performing brain surgery.
Ok now I understand. The tinfoil is showing.

Did I not say it was for another thread?? He used the example of people committing suicide by jumping out of windows from the WTC and his statement was wrong.

Be careful, softblu thinks its ok to take your own life when someone calls you names.

You may want to ask him/her that they not hurt themselves. I know you aren't being a bully, but apparently that is reason for someone to kill themselves today.

You bet it does. Just ask my three daughters who gave me the name. You can at the same time ask how they deal with bullies.

Nevermind they probably wouldn't give you the time of day.

True, girls can be a lot more vindictive than boys. I'm married, believe me I know, LOL! Again, some times you have to fight fire with fire. Turn the tables on them. If you've already kicked their a** you then have the upper hand. Once you kick their a** and if they still want to retaliate and keep up with their BS, kick their a** again! Don't stop until they get the message. I'm pretty sure that girls don't like their face damaged. Sooner or later, it's gonna stop.

BTW I saw your previous post, and I'm sorry that those things happened to you when you were younger. Some people are just rotten to the core. There is no excuse for bullying. I understand poking fun. We all do it to a degree. I'm one of the few that would stop if I saw that it is hurting someone's feelings. Then again if I poke fun at someone it's generally harmless ribbing, and done with a wink and a smile. But in the end, nobody deserves to be bullied to the point that it starts effecting their lives.

Deal with them?? Or possible they are bullies?? Maybe it's a fine line.

I've not interest in aggressive women who flex their muscles giving me the time of day.

Conner asked her mother to be home-schooled. Her mother denied her request and the very next day Conner’s sister found her hanging in her closet by a scarf.
Bummer. Guess she should have home schooled her.
