Not plotting something from far away which angers the other person a little but he doesn't know why stuff happens to him. It is not real revenge IMO. OP is a coward. At least be a MAN and stand behind the transsexual and say "THATS WHAT YOU GET!" or the like.
That would've of been hilarious.

He also has to record the moment. Especially the look on the guy's face.

Yeah, you're right. It's much better to sit out one's life as Bubba's jail cell cot-warmer for aggravated assault...presuming the guy you beat up didn't shoot you.


Somewhere out there, there is probably someone who has been harboring a grudge against me for something I may not even remember doing.

You know this would all be avoided if people just treat each other with respect and dignity and not try to bully and intimidate each other. All of this talk of revenge and the desire for revenge would not exist.

(Note to those who don't believe in God, this was my method of "Getting Revenge" I know some would rather actually take revenge, but that's being small like the OP)

Kids who bully other kids are usually bullied by their parents at home. They are just kids acting out because of their own abuse at home and have no idea why they are doing what they are doing.

To get revenge on another person for what he did when he was an abused kid himself is very sad. That's not revenge, it is sickness.

If you want to get revenge, hunt their parents down and kill them.

This is just a generality that's not even mostly true. A good number of bullies actually come from well off families and they are who they are because their parents and others around them spoil them and enable their poor behavior. And even those that do come from abusive households have no excuse. Lord knows, it isn't like their targets don't come from tough home lives. And yet they don't lash out.

Two types of people come from abuse. Abusers and victims. Abusers lash out. These are the bullies. Victims learn to be helpless and take abuse.

There is plenty of data showing that kids who are spanked or otherwise abused are much more likely to bully.

You (like an earlier poster) appear to have neglected those who took steps to prevent future abuse. They are no longer helpless and will take no more abuse.

So where's the data?
