THOUGHTS | THE BULLY HAD IT COMING

There’s a video going around where a teen finally snapped after being kicked, hit, and insulted by a group of kids in a computer shop. Honestly, the bigger teen lost his cool—but I can’t fully blame him. The kid in the red shirt was just as annoying as the one in the Anthony Edwards jersey. In fact, the red-shirt kid got off too easy. He was smiling the whole time while his friend got pummeled, and he walked away without a scratch.

Now, let me be clear: I don’t condone violence. If it were me, I probably would’ve just walked out before throwing punches, especially now that every shop has CCTV cameras. But here’s the thing—kids today need to understand that bullying isn’t something you can just laugh off anymore. The internet has receipts. Whatever you do can follow you forever, ruin job opportunities, and even stain your personal life. You can change, sure, but it’ll take years before people see you differently.

And let’s be real—kids aren’t exactly fast learners these days. I was a lazy dumbass as a kid, but I still skipped a grade because I managed to ace some tests. These kids? They started preschool at three, survived online schooling, and still rely on their parents to do their homework while they scroll through brain-rot content. The simplest lesson adults can teach them is knowing what’s good and what’s bad. Because if they don’t learn that early, they’re bound to get humbled—whether by life or by someone who’s had enough.
