    I get that. Situations like this are insane. Have been there myself a lot. But the only correct reaction to this is keep still and take it…

    …and shit in his lunch box a day later.

    Funny that we end up in this discussion while I‘m also listening to a podcast about patience and picking your fights. In case you‘re interested: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/imp-and-skizz-podcast/id1639033817 very wholesome and helpful imo.

    Also, I cant remember what 3rd grade was like but this happens all across life, time and time and time again. Only way to get rid of these so far is to sit still, not get worked up and quietly plot their downfall. On the web its blocking, reporting. IRL its waiting for them after work and making sure nobody watches.

      I’d rather just burn my account and give up on online socialization. It’s gotten so much worse in the last decade that I think that only nostalgia keeps me trying to find a sane online community.

        Then I suggest you do exactly that. It’s not helping to scream bloody murder and demanding others change if you‘re not willing to do the same.
