A sad memory from 40+ years ago out of nowhere

[Cherry Brigand]

I'm watching an online training (8 hours!) and a sad memory just landed on me out of nowhere. I'm in elementary school at recess. They've rung the bell for us to come in so i'm running across the playground. All of a sudden a big kid hits me in the head and runs by. I take a few more steps and i realize that he has put gum in my hair. I had to cut it out with scissors when I got inside. I was so sad. What an ugly thing. I couldn't have been in more than first or second. What a horrible thing to do to a little boy.

1. The human mind just makes no sense. It's 40+ years later and I'm engaged at work and BAM! Have some of this Mr. Brigand. Stupid head. Stupid memories.

2. Thinking about this makes me sad. What kind of kid does this to a little boy? I mean it's not as bad as shooting up a school or whatever, but gum in the hair of an angelic first grader? I bet it's why I'm cue ball bald now.

3. I'm vacillating between hoping he ended up being a great person and hoping his life got cut short by a terribly painful tragic death. Bear with me. This all just happened. Yep. Thanks Jesus. I guess I need to pray for this enemy too.

TLDR: Gum smashed in hair by punk when I was a child. I'm now bald.

This bully probably had an abusive home, and had it worse than you can imagine. I think praying for them sounds like a great thing to do.

You seem to have turned out fine. I will pray for the bully. He probably grew up in a liberal, fatherless household. Probably in prison or dead.

Find the Bully & Bully him. Close the Loop.

Sounds like something I would do when I was a kid.

I was a bully like that. And I specifically targeted kids that seemed like they came from a happy stable home. Probably because I didn't have that.

My home life was pretty fucked up.

So yeah your bully ruined your day, but he probably had a shit life. And any time this memory makes you sad, just think about the kid's Dad abusing him. That should cheer you up.

A kid put a fat piece of gum on my chair and sat down on it, and got stuck on my pants while everyone was laughing at me. I rushed the kid and started fighting him but it got broken up. So during P.E. period I fought him again and beat his ass until he said he was sorry

Time for a Bully Beatdown

Hop in your Ford Fiesta and gather up as many sherdoggers as you can fit in that thing and lets go kick that guy's ass.

My gum story isn't quite as bad. More funny when I think about it. I was a freshmen, still very much a kid. There was this junior that was a loud mouth punk and basically already a grown ass man. I'm changing for PE and he's next to me and he tells me to look because he sat in gum. I look down and he's sitting on the bench with part of his saggy ball sack peeking out of his shorts. He proceeds to punch me in the arm and call me a phag and walked out.
