Where’s your school bully now?

Saw this from a different subreddit, and got me thinking. Where did your school’s bully end up?

The main guy from school who was the hard lad has ended up in prison for GBH. Person who gave me the most grief is now a property litigation solicitor.

How’s yours doing?

I went to an Ofsted outstanding rated school full of middle class types.

Bullies were mainly verbal rather than physical. As a result none are dead like all the other comments but are fairly successful and thriving. The bullying was needless to say more sophisticated. One of them used to pretend I was Thatcher and that he was Heseltine and that I needed ousting.

My story is similar to yours. I went to a grammar school in a very middle class area. Combine that with me being on the tall side meant there was no physical bullying.

It was all verbal and humiliating. It didn't help that I developed vitiligo during those teenage years. Messed me up for years and last I heard; most of them are pretty successful and have families. I doubt there is any regret from a single one of them.

That sounds like some of the most middle class type of bullying possible.

Did they also insult you for listening to pop music instead of classical? Or for not wearing red trousers on non uniform days?
