Oh trust me, still do.
The entire school knows who I am, and trust me, it ain't a good thing, have everyone patronising me, and all of the teachers think that I'm the center of all of the schools problems.
Sure, I ignore it, but it's best to stand against these people.
I'm standing up to all the shit that exists in my school, and there's alot, there's one prick I'm "fighting", we're playing fricking mind games.
But seriously, do something, and if any of you know anyone going through shit, don't say they deserve, because no one deserves it, if you can help them, help them, because even if it screws you over in the process at least you're standing up to the whole cycle.
Only reason I would say not to do anything is when you can do no actions which could lead to possible outcomes, but quite often, you don't know, so act wisely, but still act.
For if you do something you may be made a fool, but if you do nothing, you make a fool of yourself.
Oh and don't take it like a man, I mean firstly, honestly, what kind of man takes shit (not that there's anything wrong with taking shit, more so to the one giving it)? but secondly, the people who do are just bottling it in, and it explodes later in their lives and some commit suicide.
Look, what I do is look as the people who give me a hard time as screwed up themselves in some way, and I feel sorry for them, the moment you can symthpasize with them succsessfully you win, most of them want you to laugh or accept what they're doing, because they're just venting whatever confused feelings they have and they don't know what to do.
I go to one of the richest schools in my country, full of eastern suburbs (the richest in sydney) snobs and spoilt brats, it's easy to feel sorry for them because, arrogant as it is to say, their lives will be meaningless, sure they'll have plenty of women, money, cars, houses etc. but their lives will be shallow (at least is what you tell yourself or you loose automatically), and they have no idea what they're saying or doing.
Now just apply this reasoning to whoever gives you shit (loosers- they get paid out by everyone, think they can make themsevles look better if they give you a hard time, "bullies"/ thugs, are dumb shits and spend their lives around physical activities- sport, but aren't nearly good enough to make anything of it, so are destined to be nobodies, so they give you shit to make them feel better, the boring "normal" people, go by unoticed and give you shit for attention or get involved in giving you a hard time to make themselves feel important in being "in on the action", etc.)
Of course things are more complicated, but seriously, try acting tactically, smile once and a way, as said above, talk to people, reason with your enemies, but then again, with all this honor and respect shit it varies, snobs and loosers can usually be "befreinded" and I use the "'s because I doubt you actually want to befreind them, more get them out of your way, but the "thugs" usually will respect you if you beat the shit out of others, or so it seems, but then you're just as bad as the loosers and you actually seem like more of a tool, stand up to them, sure you'll be in trouble, but if they're as tough as they think they are, they should respect your balls and leave you alone.
So use tatics, help others if it will lead to good results, and try and avoid becoming the "bully", which is easier said than done, and remember, the line between bullying and joke is blurred, mainly because it varies on who you do it to, their reaction and opinion, I've pissed many people off through my jokes, but in hindsight, I'm actually quite satasfied, they deserved it.
