Seriously, I don't like being called a bully because I'm so much worst.
Your goddam write it is!! I hate these nerds throwing the word "bully" around taking away it's meaning. It used to mean you were the badass that got all the chicks (like Biff from back to the Future). Now they try to make it a bad thing. fricking liberals!!

Yep. Most martial arts kids are frick ups. Guess it helps some of them.
That's a rather overreaching and ignorant sounding generalization.
Being a bully doesn't necessarily make you a frick up. I had good grades and didn't get in any trouble other than being unnecessarily mean for kicks to other kids. I just needed some guidance and I wasn't quite getting it from church or the parents.

It's a dog eat dog world and you better be tough and that means taking from others. The business world is all about bullying.

Name a Fortune 500 company that isn't a bully
Any CEO?
Stop decieving yourselves about what it takes to be successful. You don't make it to the top of the food chain by being fricking nice.
ETA: I don't want my kids bullying in the sense of physically intimidation or name calling but in business they will be taught to be ruthless.

I have twin boys that are 7, they are big for their class because they are the oldest in their 1st grade class due to how we started them and it always seems like it's something. I don't think they are bullies, they go to a small episcopal school and are just rough, rambunctious and confident which leads to issues periodically I stay on their arse to not bully anyone etc

So you define success based on having a great job? Life is about so much more. You probably already knew that because im sure you know everything

You should take a look at the book Good to Great. It's all about how CEOs with humility are generally much more successful at growing their companies than the dickheads your talking about.

My oldest stepdaughter definitely went through a "Mean Girls" stage a while back. She wasn't really the type to pick on the weak and weird. Just brutal towards the "frenemies" that constantly moved in and out of her little circle. I think she's past it, I know I've had my fill of teenage girl feuds.
