Message Board Bullying: A Performance Piece by Garner

I've absolutely had it with all the rampant bullying that goes on around here. Every time I come back to these boards, the same people are still bullying me. I used to post here a lot years ago back in 2004, and people here kept picking on me. And before that, when I was here in the early part of 2004, there were people picking on me.

I think this is very unfair, and when I was here in 2003, people were picking on me and being bullies. And in 2002, not just in both in the early and later parts, but also in the MIDDLE as well! I think it's like those people don't understand something about what it means to be people.

Bullying was also happening during periods of 2001, which was very bad and not nice at all. I think it's also a shame that bullying was taking place before that, but I'm not really supposed to talk about that much. The bullying here is always the same group of people.

I don't like how they always seem to have higher member ratings than I do and I don't like that you have to have a member raiting before anyone will give you more stars. I think that the people here are bullies about their member ratings with all the extra names they use to make their raitings go up and mine go down and that's not nice because it's unfair that they get to bully me.

And you know what I really hate is how back in 2001 and 2002 and 2003 and 2004 when it was the same people time and time again coming back to bully me well it's 2005 now and they're still bullying me and they think I'm not like I am but they don't understand that I don't think I like it but I do and its not that I dont but they bully and they just don't appreciate what I'm being bullied about.

I Think I've got no right to ask but I'm supposed to not ask so I'll ask if the bullies like to bully me and why that makes them special because I dont think they're special and if they're special why is it that they bully and I should be special too because I have sea monkeys that like me but they don't really like me because they bully me too and they all look alike and sound alike and it's really just the sea monkeys faster and faster and faster they bully.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be a bully and not a victim but not a victim of eight or a circle of eight because that'd be infringing on other people's names or copyrighted material from the greyhawk setting of dungeons and dragons which are WRONG according to jack chick but jack chick is a bully and he makes the entire christian faith his victim because now people who are not ******* fundamentalists are being confused with ******* fundamentalists because of people like jack chick who are ******* fundamentalists but that's really not the point the point is that he's a bully and I dont like bullies and bullies are wrong and it's wrong to bully people but people here are often bullies even though they dont wear the same clothes.

Sometimes its the same bullies but sometimes they're different and if you say you think it's the same bully you're probably right but the bullies will say that you're wrong so that you won't be able to say that you're right because everyone believes it when a bully says you're not a good thing or person or vegetable or mineral but that's why bullies are special people maybe if I got to be a bully i'd get to be special like they are and i'd like to be special if only I could be special but i can't be special because so many bullies are always around and it's always the same bully even when it isnt and thats what makes them special but me i'm just me i'm not special i'm not anybody i'm just somebody the bullies like to pick on and they say i'm a bully but really i'm just the victim.

Maybe a bully is reading this and thinking that it's not okay to be a bully but it is okay, it's more than okay because a bully is always in the right thats what being a bully is all about don't you see if you're the bully you can make other people agree with you because bullies have mind controlling powers and can bend the will of others like some kind of jedi mind trick or maybe vampires. Vampires are cool.

I'd like to think that i had powers like a bully, maybe like the official post of a school bully as illustrated in an episode of an old michael palin BBC show that i doubt anybody here has heard of. Those were bullies with authority! Being a bully would be the best thing in the world because people would say "bully for you!" and we'd all laugh and drink brandy and be ever so posh because somehow i can't help but think that being a bully means you're economically advantaged over the rest of the world.

Gosh, I'd love to be a bully. Maybe some times i bet that famous people lie awake at night and wonder if they're bullies when they yell at waiters and cab drivers and garbage men and photographers and interns and set designers and starving mad fans who stalk them because they want to steal a bra that jennifer anniston once wore but hey, they're famous so they're allowed to bully and i dont think they should stay up at night worrying and take it from me, i'm a victim, i know that bullies are my rightful masters. Sometimes i too would like to know what jennifer anniston's bras look like, but I bet deep down, if you promise not to tell anyone, i bet they're probably just the same as anyone elses!

That's the thing you see because being a bully might make you special as the bully and being a victim might make me special as a victim but its either everybody's special or no one is only i dont think most bullies understand that and i doubt victims feel very special themselves most of the time i know i sure dont when the bullies pick on me and even if it isn't the same bully sometimes they wear a DRESS and that's probably a bit rude but i think i wore a dress once for a play when i was that old lady in the importance of being ernest and that was just fun and games so maybe it's okay if the bullies like to wear fancy clothes and pretend they're other people but not me, i know i'm not supposed to pretend i'm other people because that would be escaping the horrible realization that i'm not a very nice person because if i were nicer, then people wouldn't bully me.

Sometimes i wonder if i might be hipocritical but then i wonder if that would make me a hippopatamus and i know i'm not one of those. When i was a kid i saw a commercial on tv for a game called hungry hungry hippos where you hit a button and the hippo thing would try to eat marbles and it looked so fun because the kids in the commercial were smiling and having fun and it was fast and it had action and the marbles were nice and soft but they werent really they were just white and round and i learned when i was older that it's not really much fun to just hit a button over and over and over and collect marbles and that the kids in the commercial were paid to look so happy and i thought games aren't really all that fun but sometimes bullies like to play games they play games with people's lives and with their own lives too for that matter.

I bet some bullies are bullies their whole lives, i bet some are born rather than made. i bet some bullies grow up and never change, and they never have friends, and they're always alone and they never go out and they're always alone, and when they die, nobody comes to the funeral, nobody cares, nobody cries. but i bet that victims are the same way. some victims are victims their whole lives and they're always abused and they grow up and they're still abused and they never have friends and they're always alone and they never go out and they're always alone and when they die, nobody comes to the funeral, nobody cares, nobody cries. but i bet that bullies and victims are really just the same really they're alot a like and they'd never ever ever ever know it.

Sometimes i think that victims become bullies and sometimes i think that bullies become victims but not my bullies they just bully me from other directions and so i never know when there's a bully there and when there isnt, and they like it that way because it means that they can say that i'm paranoid but they made me that way and that's what it means to be a victim and then they can make me angry and then when i get angry they can say that i'm angry and i say but yes you made me angry because you're a bully and they say that no, i'm a bully because of what i did when i was angry but i know that's not true because if i were a bully then they wouldn't be bullying me but they do so i must be a victim and sometimes i'd like to know just who doesnt like me and just why they don't like me and if we could get along if they got to know me and i got to know them and i bet things would have been different but they're not and they're like they are because someone got upset or someone got hurt and maybe the bullies are just bullies becuase they got hurt and maybe the victims are just sad because they dont understand but i think that no matter what there's only a few bullies and i know i'm not one of them but i'd like to know where the other ones live so i could kill them.
