How did I deal with bullies?

Well first I listened to my mom.

When that didn't work I signed up for football, thinking maybe it would earn me enough tough guy points.

When that didn't work I started fighting them and got my ass kicked more times than a few.

When that still wasn't working, I hit the gym, bulked up. Oh, I hit puberty too (it was late onset, I was about 16) I shot up 8 inches and put on about 75 lbs in about a year. I was even accused of taking 'roids by some of my team-mates.

That worked, one bully (whom I'd had a particularly nasty history with) started on me my first day of senior year, and I really hurt him. I was terribly proud of it at the time and the bullying ended there.

Now I think the whole bit was pretty stupid.
