I’m so sick of hearing about beautiful young, talented, KIDS taking their lives because of people bullying them. How many more kids need to die to prove a point. Words DO hurt, more than they are given credit for. When will people learn? I’ve decided to try and start a “wave” of compliments, if you get one… give one, go crazy… talk to someone you haven’t in awhile. Who knows, that one nice thing you say, could be the only nice thing they’ve heard all day.
Not only does bullying effect children and youth but also adults. When is it ever going to change? It won’t. Not until each individual chooses to make a difference. Everyone has a story and people look right through them pass judgement. We live in a sick cruel world… and to anyone who was sick enough to laugh and forward that picture of the girl outside the bar, I hope you realize you contributed to her decision to take her own life.
No one ever thinks, what if this was me.
Just hell this will be funny to laugh at someone else’s expense!
Go fuck yourselves and check yourselves.
We’re all human.
The people who are doing the bullying probably want to kill themselves too, but instead they make others want to so they can feel good and think they are better because they can successfully put someone down. People have said some shit about me and done things that have made me want to die because it’s like “who will miss me anyway?” If that thought crosses your mind, they aren’t worth such thoughts, and when you get over the depressing moment, you’ll be alright. It hurts, and people don’t know their asses from their faces, they talk so much shit. We’re all people and we all have feelings. People just like to pretend they’re some hard ass famous person when in reality they’re just some wanker who gets drunk & high at bars and doesn’t do shit all and has nothing to show for all the shit they talk. No one is better than the other, I just wish people would fuckin realize that. —Die in a Fire, Painfully

There are 7 billion people on this mud ball.
I personally believe we need less not more.
So let’s encourage bullying, put in suicide booths at all the malls.
Lets get another war…a real one not the little police actions going on here there & everywhere, I mean WW3.
Lets save this planet from the virus that is the human race .
Perhaps we’ll get lucky & there’ll be a few survivors & they’ll start overwith a bit more respect than we have now…but I’m not holding my breath, although I am keeping my powder dry ~:)
I don’t know anything about this girl outside a bar but I can assume it was very unflattering. If she took her own life, it’s another black eye in the way some people use social media.
To prey on weaker or defenseless people is a dark part of human nature. I believe the majority of people have the capacity to be this way but upbringing and life experience determine how much.
I was a victim of bullying myself when I was younger because I had a passive personality. It does have a very profound effect on one’s psyche especially if it’s oft repeated. The damage is deep and permanent
Nobody deserves to be bullied and bullies should be punished for their actions in an ideal world. We’re supposed to live in a civilized society not on the Serengetti
I’ll get flamed for this but I think a big part of the issue is people not knowing how to stand up for themselves. Bullies are a part of life, we need to better equip our kids to deal with them. They don’t go away after grade 12.
And yes, I’ve been bullied throughout my life. I made a choice to do something about it rather than feel sorry for myself.
I agree with Tommyjules. Parents raise pussies. Pussies can’t cope with anything.
I was never a bully. I was bullied. I am also not a pussy so i dealt with it and got around it and the bullying stops when kids show they’ve got what it takes to deal with it.
Life isn’t SUPPOSED to be easy. There is a limit to the amount of bullying one kid should have to endure but kids are SUPPOSED to have to go through a period of healthy razzing as they grow up. It’s part of what develops a thick skin and social skills. This whole anti-saying-anything-mean-at-all bullshit that fools like you OP are pushing on our kids today is a huge part of what has caused this most recent generation of kids to be soft-willed, spoiled, entitled, fat and unable to fight for anything they believe in.
Op, you’re what i like to call an anti-bully bully. it’s great to protect kids from DANGER but you’re hell bent in your retarded crusade of protecting kids from being kids. Then you tell other people to go die in a fire?
Deal with your anger honey or life is going to kick your ass.
people have said shit about me too OP.
You’re clearly a very young person. You haven’t been properly welcomed yet. So let me be the first to welcome you to the club. Members call it “life”. When shit happens, members of our special club look at each other and say “That’s life for you” instead of being all dramatic and emo and stupid about it and trying to elicit attention by going on about “who cares about me anyway…?” *dramatic pause*
Make the kinds of friends that make you feel secure and then it shouldn’t fucking MATTER what people say to you. Why the hell do you care about the opinions of the wider world anyway? You’ll never reach a point in your life where everyone is going to like you. So stop trying to censor haters and trolls. Just GROW UP and IGNORE it.
in this club called “Life” there are a few rules. One in particular is that if you make bad choices, there is a much higher probability that bad shit will happen to you.
The “bullies” didn’t make her drink her face off. They didn’t make her choose to stay when she should have been cut off ages ago, gone home, and slept it off. And they didn’t make her kill herself. What they did sucked. It doesn’t mean they’re responsible for her plethora of poor choices.
I was bullied too. I had zero self esteem and hated every god damn day but I knew I could never kill myself. Although I wished sometimes to not wake up the next morning, I knew I didn’t want to end my life with barely experiencing anything. When I was 80 and I still felt that way, then I would kill myself. But now I just feel sooo much better about everything and whenever someone says something bad about me or to me, I find it quite flattering because they must feel threatened enough by me or something to try to put me down ;D. Lawd knows I have done some embarrassing things while under an influence but I could care less now, even though people at my school would constantly yell at me and “accidentally” shove into me. I jus dun care anymore.
Good luck with the OB. Go check out the shit-stained chick bitch.
I commented on the “For Shame” bitch but basically said the same thing you did, TJ, I_K and Mel. I fully agree and I_K beat me to the punch on one point. I was going to point out how hypocritical of the OB, to, almost in the same paragraph, preach about starting some “wave of compliments” movement because, as they say, “we live in a sick cruel world” and then turn around and wish these people to “Die in a Fire, Painfully” …..(Good luck with your movement, btw.) But, I_K was too quick for me. “Next time…” (*shakes fist*) lol
we’ve all been bullied… and you may think you weren’t a bully but I’m betting there are times you may not even remember where you’ve done something at someone else’s expense….
it IS a part of life…. it’s just that in these days, everything is so public.
Back when I was a kid and was shit-kicked by 3 turds… only the people in the vicinity really knew about it…. when I was made fun of, only those in hearing distance knew.
Now it’s razing people on their own accounts for everyone they know to see…
the shitkicking going viral on youtube while people laugh….
it’s kids WANTING to be known for the sake of being known…
Like fucking Snooki /Paris and all those stupid douches perpetuate.
Keep kids offline until they grow a thick enough skin to deal with the crap-fest that is life.
What’s with all the “blaming the victim” here? Yes,victims should be shown how to deal with bullies but at the same time bullying is bad, anti-social behavior and should be punished.
To exploit/bully what-have-you a person whether you’re a rapist,pedophile or garden variety bully you are displaying an aggressive behavior that will harm your victim physically and psychologically. Not all children or even adults have the where-with-all to deal with a constant onslaught on their sense of self-worth and sometimes they need our help.
I didn’t write these bitches but I do understand a lot of where they come from.

I FUCKING LOVE THAT GAME. I don’t know anyone else who has played it though…I don’t know why, it is Rockstar. I remember staying home sick from school to play it – I probably could have went to school but meh. I just thought it was funny, I stayed home from school to play a game where I went to school.
you survived that’s the main thing. love the little lion face in the blankets
In my day, everyone got bullied from time to time, even the bullies got bullied. We fought, we cried, we got over it.
I was always quick to stand up for injustices. If a bully was picking on someone, me and my friends enjoyed tormenting the bully. What most people don’t realize is bullies are inherently lazy. They don’t want to work any harder than they have to. So when they get in your face, you get right back in their face. In most cases, you will even find that the bully isn’t all that bad, he might even respect you for standing up to him. I had that happen to me a few times.
because of the almighty www, kids bully in ways i couldn’t begin to understand. luckily for me, by the time they got a bead on me, i was gone
theres a difference between bullying and just being a complete sad excuse for a person.
The girl at the dome shit herself for god knows what reason, sure, she was a dome bitch, but no one deserves to have their image splattered all over the internet like that and forwarded to everyone you know via email. People are retards, and some of the shit you people do makes me wonder how you can smile or wake up in the morning. I just want to raise the awareness that this shit just isnt necessary.
I think forwarding an image to thousands of image has something to do with her killing herself buddy… And who the fuck just stand there and takes pictures of a girl who is obviously too fucked up. does no one have a brain or compassion? how about help her the fuck up and get her some water, help your fellow human dipshit. youre all so concerned with yourselves you cant even lay down your pride to agree someone should have helped.
Some people do deserve to die in a fire.
Im not jsut talking about horsing around or teasing. im talking about scarring a person for life.
when that picture is on the internet, there is no hiding from it.
Why do people feel the need to do such things?
What fucked up shit happens in your brain to make you think
“this is a good idea”
People like this, do this because they are the pussies who cant handle the life theyve been handed. They target the passive and quiet peopole who mind their own damned business but still deem it necessary to bleed their vagina on everyone.
Im sick of people being full of themselves. like who the fuck do you people think you are? seriously.
And sure, we need less people on this shit stained earth, but how about we murk the fuckers who DESERVE it? Im not trying to be all ” Oh stop the bullies their meanies”.
Im saying, WTF is wrong with people in this world.
Some people just are not equipped to handle being bullied. It just isn’t in them. It’s all well and good to say stop being a pussy, but for some kids that just isn’t going to happen. I think support for those people is important.
I remember when I was a kid, my (non rich) parents sent me to a certain private school in Windsor as a non boarding “day student”. As you can imagine I didn’t fit in, there was a certain kid in particular that picked on me mercilessly. I got beat up daily and called “farmboy”, because I wasn’t rich and was from the country. I always had a good sense of humor and never let it bother me, some people are just dicks. One day fucko decided to take it too far, which is when he got his ass beat and thrown through a plate glass window by me, problem solved. Sometimes drastic measures are called for, because there was nothing anyone else could do to help me, no amount of support anyone could give me, no conversation that would make the problem go away. Since that day, I have never let anyone take advantage of me in any way, I consider that a life lesson via “the school of hard knocks”. If you don’t learn to fight your battles as a kid, there is no way you can claim your life as your own.
There is one thing I don’t understand, social media or online bullying, cannot figure this one out at all. Ummmm, I can block people from my facebook, twitter (if I cared enough to open an account), phone (text messages). How the fuck can someone be bullied online? What can someone write about me online that I would even give a shit about? This form of bullying does not compute!!!
my non-rich parents sent me there too shitd, the bullying that some of the boys had to withstand was insane
When I was at King’s, every year we’d get intakes from that place. There was always a certain percentage that would have belonged in a “youth facility”, were it not for their parents’ status and income.
Just a thought about the bar victim. An old bartender’s trick is to put a few drops of visine into a a real jerk’s drink. The result is almost instant and very violent diarrhea. It’s possible this girl could have been dosed without her knowing it.
Totally agree SHITD.
Xeno, check out this link: http://www.snopes.com/medical/myths/visine…
The visine myth is false, and potentially dangerous.
Man, I saw the visine trick done with my own eyes!
It was in the mid-80s…maybe the formula has changed?
For reals, though. I worked with this bartender, Lisa. When she wore her ‘Madeline’ nametag instead of Lisa, watch out! This fat fuck fucked with her, on a Madeline day; she pulled his beer, reached up as if yawning and squeezed in a few drops. Man went pale in a few, then bolted for the mens room. Swear to god.
I wonder if he had nausea instead of diahrea, isn’t that one of the possible symptoms?
btw, Xeno, stop trying to perpetuate this myth. The visine pranks causes serious damage to people and it doesn’t cause diahrea.

ahhh.. i’ll say one thing Nefarious Sovereign.. I am a little weirded out by the fact that NOT ONE guy tried to help her home.
I didn’t think chivalry was dead but i guess that’s because i’ve always been dignified enough to receive it. I guess even chivalry has standards and that’s sort of bullshit.. pardon the pun.
and harper is the devil.. i like you man. You’re a smart dude. You are the voice of reason in this opinion circus.
There is no such thing as internet bullying. If you don’t like it, don’t use the internet. Or put on child-blocker or something equally passive. Unless someone steals your identity (and that’s identity theft. Not cyber bullying) they’re just words.
If you don’t want embarrassing pictures of you winding up online, act with a sense of decorum and dignity. And it won’t happen.
Social media and the internet are a mainstay for kids nowadays. Cyber-bullying involves invading chatrooms and other venues of communication between kids with threats and innuendoes. Bullies can be blocked but the smarter ones change accounts quite often and remain anonymous. These predatory type of activities result in a child getting isolated and depressed and in rare cases, suicide can result. How kids are perceived are in their “community” can be everything to them and if they’re constantly made to look foolish in front of their peers, the need to socialize, to learn, to exist becomes diminished.
Bullies are a part of life, I don’t argue that. It’s great that SHITD stood up and defeated his nemesis, good for him but I would say kind of outcome is rare. Most victims are quiet, have low self-esteem and are weaker than their tormenters so that isn’t an option. Bullies also tend to have an entourage which makes it even more difficult for the victim to overcome.
Asking people these days to act with dignity is like trying not shit these days.
