I was waiting for the activity bus (bus that leaves at 4pm) after school today with my boyfriend, when this random freshman, who knows my bf, starts randomly insulting us. When I was younger I was teased a lot and being insulted by my own peers took a hard hit to my self-esteem. I couldn't help but laugh out loud at this silly freshman's attempts to belittle someone 2 years older and smarter. He couldn't stand being laughed at so he started to insult my laugh. I laughed harder and he tried to drone me out with random chanting. His antics were so below me that I almost couldn't believe I used to actually believe the crap that bullies would say, no matter how ridiculous it now seems. I was not the only one who felt this way; two other guys my age nearby told him he was acting like a child.
On the bus, he continued his antics to no end. I ignored him but he interrupted my conversation. I eventually just ended up saying, "Go on and insult me if it helps you sleep better at night that you belittle others to make yourself feel better." before exiting the bus. Some people just never grow up, it seems.
