Sorry, this is offtopic and I’m seizing on an innocent typo, but I dearly love the hip-hop idea of “Principles _fo_ Warfare”.

I was never bullied at all during my elementary, junior high, and high school years.

When I was in graduate school in my late twenties, I was pushed down by this behemoth of a fellow (he was about six and a half feet tall, and built like a pro wrestler or football player; I am only 5’ 5"); he just didn’t like white people, I was told later. Very odd experience!

Yup. 8th grade. I stupidly picked a fight with a high school kid who’d been making all sorts of slurs about my sister. I didn’t get too bloodied, but I was kicked repeatedly in the lower back and couldn’t go to school the following day and was excused from gym for awhile as I healed up.
