Being a soft and easy target has to be part of it. It stands to reason that people who smash bus windows are the same people who used to beat up nerds at school

Being a soft and easy target has to be part of it. It stands to reason that people who smash bus windows are the same people who used to beat up nerds at school when they were children. Some people set themselves up for a life of shit from the get go and never bother to change course.
- negamax 13y agoI fully agree with you. But I think grown up nerds are far more successful and powerful than their highschool bullies counterparts. I am more afraid of good people turning into vendetta seekers because of this (your comment kind of resonates to what I am foreseeing as plausible outcome).
- null_ptr 13y agoWhat I meant was that some people clearly never grow up past highschool. Instead of taking charge of their own lives, they choose to engage in childish games like bullying and name calling. They're still waiting for the teacher to bail them out and advance them to the next grade instead of leaving them behind until they put in the work necessary to pass the class. But there's no teacher waiting on you when you're in your 20s - the assumption is that you've grown up by now.
- SerpentJoe 13y agoI'm angry too, but that does not stand to reason.
