I am sorry if that wasnt clear the first time.
Its easy to pick things off the list quoted and say on their own they look silly... but they are not bullying, just some of the things bullies do.
A young girl who was a friend of my family killed herself when she was 13 over being bullied at school. Perhaps she should have toughened... but the game was not so much good fun for her.
Or maybe you will say instead that it is a bad problem in schools, but once a person is 18 they are fair game?

People play games all the time. Maybe in the Queen's english game means something completely different, but there are players of many kinds of games out there. From those that are trying to get into the panties of the sket at the club, to the politic playing job seeker kissing ass to the boss and backstabbing coworkers.
I'm sorry that your friend died. That's a shame, but that was a choice she made, not someone else. Words may hurt, and cut deep but they are at the end of the day still just words. "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." is the old saying in these parts.
In the real world, there's nothing to protect you. You'd like the government to do that for you. I'd rather I take care of me, myself and my own. That's the fundamental difference here.
