I was SUCH a goodie two-shoes, and even a tattletale sometimes. It was terrible. If I met me as a child, I would SLAP me. And then child-me would go tell, obviously. But other than that I was nice and I tried to help people. And I wanted to grow up really fast. >.>
Except when I was about 3 years old I was full of rage so I went around and beat the shit out of everyone and bit them because I HATED EVERYTHING (or something.)

Well I might as well share mine.
I would cause fights between my cousins because I loved to watch people fight.
I did in fact did tell everyone Santa isn't real, and said it to Santa in his face. I was just bitter because my muslim family didn't celebrate christmas :(.
I would kill one ant and watch the others scramble, or I'd bring a rolly-polly I killed after dissecting it and have the ants eat it.
I was a mean little bastard.

I was a mean little fuck but I didn't go out of my way to bully people. I was just a total dick if you tried to approach me. I've never quite been a loner, I've always had small, close groups of friends. I was extremely insecure as well, my mom would always shit on me verbally so I had low self-esteem and as a result didn't expect anyone to be nice to me. That's why I was a dick, I preferred being nasty first to having someone I liked reject me.
I never really liked kids and I had absolutely no patience for anyone who didn't display a really high level of maturity and intelligence, hence why I only hung out with 2-3 people. I always liked talking to adults more. I always scored really high on all kinds of standardized tests but I was an awful student, almost never did my homework in any grade. Now, I know that standardized tests are not the best measure of intelligence, and I'm sure that somewhere in HS I leveled off IQ wise to the standard of my peers (even though I don't want to believe that), but for a young kid I was really bright. I've since burned off a lot of braincells though.

Basically I was a pyrotechnics kind of person. I would burn shit for no reason at all and nearly burned down an apartment. My idea of fun was "dude let's see if this molotov actually works".
Other than that I was the fat kid who everybody liked and if somebody called me fat, I would bodyslam them.
I did wrestling as well. The kind of wrestling that fucking hurt. My friends were nuts and we would hit each other with whatever we found. One time my friend tried a bicycle kick and fell on his back and knocked himself out. It was fun.

You would've got bodyslammed. I literally did this to somebody in fifth grade and the assistant principal basically took my side. It was so funny because everybody was like "please Justin don't do anything" after the kid called me fat.

I'd get in trouble everyday. I wouldnt call myself a bully but I liked to tease kids, even kids who could've probably kicked my ass. I made one thougher kid cry because he couldnt go to recess because he wanted to beat me up.
I'd make lots of sex jokes that went over most of my classmates heads. Got in fights. Got send to principal atleast once a week.
But fuck that school. One time I got send to the principal and sat there the whole day doing nothing because the teacher asked me why we went to school and I said "for nothing." Also I once pissed off a teacher because she thought I said something about liverspots or some shit like that which her uncle or something had (which I didnt know about) I actually said "krijg de klere" which is like "eat my shorts" basically and I got in trouble for that.
Also my gymteacher knee'd me in the stomach and none of other teachers believed me.

Somewhere between the nice kid and the artistic kid, although pretty nerdy at first with a rebellious streak. I also used to swear and fiercely insult people who fucked with me or my friends, often bully types. Got pissed off enough with my primary school at one point and just went into the toilets with my best friend and started graffing swear words everywhere. Good times, good times.

I was also always one of the smartest kids in class (still am...) but as a child that made me kind of obsessed with perfection... which was bad. And also made me kind of full of myself in a bad way at the time.
I also remember having 2 different groups of friends that didn't like each other but I wanted to be nice to both of them, so I told both sides that I only hung out with the other group to be a spy. And they believed me. So I was friends with all of them. :)

Forgot to mention I was extremely smart. I was involved in a gifted and talented class in elementary school and got offers to go to magnet schools for middle school. So not only would I kick your ass if you called me fat, but I would kick your ass in education competitions.

Quite like this too, but add verbally violent to anyone who wasn't part of my very little club.
On my small group of friends it was different, I was always making them do things for me and abusing them. Still they stood around for me during all those times "following" me despite of my abuses and considering me a great friend. Sure sometimes it was all nice and we had fun, but I don't think my abuses were "compensated".
I'd like to point out that psychological bullying was a major factor in my atitude. Physically bullies coundn't harm me and I beat them all together more than once, but psychologically they devastated me. In turn I was the little tyrant of my friend group.
Then I changed dramatically some 2 to 3 years ago. And I am now the kind, calm, tolerant, compassionate, feeling guy who has a decent goofy humour:D

I'd say I was a mix of a troublemaker and a bit of a criminal actually. A cousin of mine taught some childhood friends and I, how to steal from people. Mainly women's purses, and mostly they were tourists. That's how I would be able to get a lot of candy as a kid, and luckily in all the times I ever did it, I never got caught.
So really before I even knew the word Expropriate, or knew what it meant, I was taking what some had too much of. :lol:

I was the kid that always got bullied. I don't even know why, really. Maybe I was a bit annoying or something, who knows. I voted goodie two-shoes though. I applied myself to my schoolwork because I enjoyed it (well, mostly anyway) and tried to stay out of trouble. I didn't like confrontation. I was quiet and bullied a lot so I didn't want any more hassle. As I got older it was a bit weird though because I got good grades and seemed like a goodie two-shoes but underneath I was a bit of a mess and doing a lot of things that a "goodie two-shoes" wouldn't.

2nd December 2011, 22:52
Nice to everyone? Not really, but I was quite friendly.
Goody two-shoes? Sort of, I guess, but not all that much. I wasn't always obedient, but you could pretty much count on me to do what I was supposed to do. Responsible and dependable would be a more accurate description.
Artistic ambitions, maybe. I was very imaginative and creative.

Cruel mastermind who tortured insects, and manipulated people into my doing, and the kid who told everyone santa was not real.
I was an asshole militarist, looking back at elementry school. I wasn't a bully because I was a benevolent dictator (I had an army of 20 some kids in which we dominated the playground) but I was overthrown in a cou'p by one of the younger kids when I moved on to grade 4, in which I was disconnectd with them because grade 4 did not have recess with 2&3, (Most of the people were in grade 3) so I then moved on, had like 3 friends and did things a normal 4th grader would do.
Personally I think having small groups of tolerable people are preferable to being mixed in with a giant "popular" collective. But I suppose you can rank me nowadays as a sarcastic asshole. I dislike most people that are in my school but in secrecy, I mock them in a manner in which they think I am being friendly or helpful. And sometimes I mess with kids and teachers alike in class discussions, being a professional troll in real life. Like the philosophical discussions we have in English are so mediocre that I would de rail them by spouting incomprehensible nonsense "Big words, as they put it" that means nothing at all just to put an end to the crap discussions we have, in doing so confusing everyone, silencing them (debate wise) in a manner in which they have nothing in response because what I said was too confusing (meaningless, etc.)
And then I am good at lying so that always helps, I can say anything with a strait face looking serious ( not to the point where I am a pathological liar) only because I really don't find it funny that I am lying about something, for some reason. And the humor is so mediocre and pathetic... All of the "funny" things I hear were funny and clever to me in middle school. But I really, most of all love shutting up sexist pricks. When someone tells me about "So and so being a slut" I humiliate them by telling them to stop shoving their church up everyones ass, mocking them and making them appear as extreme sexists and patriarchal male chauvinists...
I'm not proud of what I am but in all honesty this is what entertains me the most in high school and this is how I get through it. You can criticize me as an elitist or whatever but I don't care, I go to an almost all white, ultra conservative public high school with border-line racist teachers and administrators, I think I can get away with this in terms of revolutionary leftist ethical framework.

Aside from being "Bright and completely 'mature'" I think I could relate to this the most, in that I always preffered(and still do?) "being nasty first to have someone I liked reject me".
I wasn't always insecure, though, as looks, social acceptance were something I didn't ever care for, as my goal as a little child was to control and manipulate my peers, acquiring power. Now, it's not like that anymore, as, like you, like to keep a small close group of friends around me. And I don't have patience for people who didn't display "High intelligence or maturity" (But perhaps your standards for which are much higher then mine are) but I deal with it through mockery and sarcasm.
also I don't like most adults.

Let's just say I could have easily become evil. I grew up in a cultist fringe sect of Christianity, largely isolated from general culture. I couldn't relate to 'normal' people, and that made me a lightening rod for teasing and bullying. I lacked physical strength and quick wit, so I defended myself through a kind of a stoicism: I refused to give my tormentors the satisfaction of knowing they'd hurt me. I wouldn't show emotion: wouldn't even acknowledge their existence. I consoled myself with feelings of superiority: those who attacked me were debased, morally inferior to me. I took pride in being Better than others, academically and morally. (The sect I was in encouraged this, because we believed everyone was damned unless they followed all of our rules. Of a town of 50,000, we believed only the 40 or so of us were going to heaven. :lol:)
I had a weird relationship with authority: because I was the Good Kid and took pride in it, the idea of a teacher disiciplining me was insulting. Those who acknowledged me as good and worthy of favor -- those who protected me -- earned my adoration. I would have made an excellent toady at that point...weak on my own, self-righteous, and attracted to those with power and authority. There was darkness in me: lots of anger and a desire for revenge, amplified by frustration at my inability to strike back. Oddly, though, that obsession with being morally superior curbed these darker impulses: wanting to be better made me introspective enough that I realized wanting to be superior and believing myself superior were treacherous.
As I've grown up, the wounds have healed. I broke with religion in 2006, and getting away from that wretched sect allowed me to resolve my anger and depression. I learned self-reliance. I still have a morally strident side: I still push myself to be better than I am. I take inspiration from Stoicism -- but now I don't hide from emotions, or repress them: I pick them up, examine them, and so defeat them. There are still scars, though: there is in me a vicious animal who can be unleashed easily if I witness injustice. I sometimes joke that the reason I never drink to excess is that the only thing standing between me and a bid for world domination is a sober mind -- but the truth is, I'm legitimately concerned with what actions I might take if I had power and no inhibitions about using it. Part of the reason I take some spiritual practices -- like mindfulness and self-discipline -- so seriously is that I'm trying to keep that beast contained. Fighting injustice is a good thing, but I'm mindful of the saying about he who fights monsters needing to take care that he doesn't become a monster himself. Woe betide the world and me if I had become a police officer or a soldier...

I was that kid that always wanted to go on an adventure, I had a hyper-active imagination. And when I mean hyperactive, I mean hyperactive. Like I could have my power ranger toy and play by myself for hours, and it was weird because playing with myself meant rolling around on the floor imagining I was fighting villains. It's like I was tripping on shrooms without drugs or something lol. But I was always nice to people and when I did do something mean it really really made me feel like a piece of shit scumbag. I'd get depressed off of something I did or said even if the other person just shrugged it off.
I kind of remind myself as that little kid on the movie Big Daddy.
