29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey

Bullying is horrible. Whatever the age, it is an oppressive act that should always be stopped. However, when intervention from the outside isn’t enough, the victims of bullying sometimes tend to take things into their own hands, which can get a little messy. Most people would probably say that seeking active revenge against your bullies is most certainly not a great avenue to pursue when it comes to securing wellbeing, but there are people out there who’ve done it and walked away happy and proud.

Someone on the r/AskReddit subforum raised a question related to this exact matter. They asked “People who took revenge on their bully, what happened?” and the internet responded with numerous stories about how all kinds of people managed to overcome their various oppressors.

The question collected 5.9k upvotes and prompted 4.3k comments. Scroll down to see all kinds of situations ranging from small, yet clever revenge to outright wild scenarios.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I learned how to fight, then beat the hell out of him.

He left me alone from then on.

Got in trouble with the school, but when they called my dad to tell him I was fighting, he said "Yeah, I bet. I paid for the lessons. Was it that little s**t who's been bullying him?"

I did not get in trouble at home.

I beat up a boy in 5th grade for standing on a gopher turtle. No trouble at all. He was the most popular guy in H.S., and after graduation he died with a needle in his arm.

I remember getting even with the guy who used to bully me in high school. My mother got me martial arts lessons because of it and I put them to good use by smacking that bastard as hard as I could in the nuts and walking away. Didn’t get into trouble and he left me alone after that.

I knew how to fight, but because of abuse at home, I hated to be that guy. My bully got away with it frequently. One morning he started, I never said a word. Beat his face to a pulp. Black eyes, broken noses split lips. Blood on the floor. Got called into vice principals office, told me I could have killed the kid. I responded, saying, I just did to him in one moment what he has been doing all year and the school never did anything so I did. After school the next day, the father of that POS threatened me. I calmly told him I could take more pain than he could and would deliver twice as much. Never bothered again. 50 years later have never been in a fight. Walked away from several. People I do not know, their opinions mean sh*t. People I do know, if they do not like it, F**k off.

Beat up a kid in 8th grade for picking on me and making fun of my mom. I had told my parents, and the bus driver (it happened on the bus every day) that I would be beating him up on Friday if he kept at it. He did. I beat his ass. Faced zero consequences.

Similar.. I was bullied in high school, black belt in Karate but never fought back until the spat on me. Then I beat the crap out of him. My parents ended up coming to the school and tearing them a new one for constantly ignoring our complains. I only got one detention where the teacher told me my bully was douche bag haha

I had something similar to this. I got bullied a lot for being a very shy little red-haired girl. My dad knew and he payed for judo lessons. He told me I would get more confidence and hopefully I would learn to stand up for myself. I kicked the 💩 out of that bully. After he hit me on the back of my head. School called my dad. My dad said " good , I didn't pay for those lessons for nothing. That little 💩bully should've left her alone "

I got bullied at school, then stood up to the bully one day. He beat the living s**t out of me, but later told me he respected the fact that I stood up for myself knowing I'd get beat. And he never bothered me again. He did put someone in the hospital by beating him with a lacrosse stick. Glad I stood up to him before that.

School phoned our mother because my sister who was about 10 years then had beaten up two or three guys. She had a row with some girls she was in school with. And they got their big brothers to beat her up. But they were not successful. At home, she got chocolate as a compensation. She always was a big fighter. I remember her when she was five on top of our neighbour´s son who was about two years older and the bully of the street, fist flying. I was standing there quite stupid, not knowing what to do. Then our mother came out runnning and stopped it. About ten years later, he was cheeky once and she told him that she once beat his ass and could do so anytime. So, the kids got together on a meadow. And she quick as lightening grabbed his shirt, spun him in a circle and down he was. She also once fought all the boys of our little village who were after our younger sister. She pushed her into into a corner, stood in front of her and told them to advance if they were brave enough.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey This girl, Saura (f**k you saura), left me death threats in my phone when I was in high school. This was after I attempted suicide by overdose because of severe bullying and depression. The whole school knew because one teacher opened their mouth, and she used this to her advantage.

So what did I do when she left about 10 voice messages on my phone?

I had her arrested for harassment. So not only did her parents find out she was a bully when the cops showed up at her house, but they showed her parents the log of messages she would also text to my phone. Have fun being the disappointment!

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I was a tubby ugly kid who was stuck upside down in the school bin by this group of "cool" bully girls. Fast forward 20year, went through the ugly duckling stage, got rid of the train tracks, lost 2 stone and grew to 6ft. School reunion ...... cool bully girls turned into short, dumpy middle aged squawking women and genuinely unhappy with life. Enough Karma for me when they tried to make small talk and I told them that their ugliness at school now showed on their faces.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey When I was a kid, one of my "Friends" liked to bully me. We played soccer together. He'd shove me, trip me for no reason, and one day as we were standing in line for a soccer passing drill (each kid runs the drill one after the other), he shoved me. Without thinking, and with all the parents watching, I turned in one motion and socked him square in the jaw, after which he fell over crying.

My coach had seen his past behavior and made me run one single lap around the field. That was it.

Years later my dad, who was on the sidelines near this kid's dad, said the dad saw me slug his kid in the jaw, and just said to his wife "good, that little s**t needed to learn some manners"

Gee, ever think that was your job, a*****e?

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I had a few bullies who were physically abusive. One of them decided it would be funny to try and beat me up while his brother played lookout (also known as gang up on me if I started to get the upperhand). Unfortunately for him, my older brother saw what was happening and pulled everyone apart and let me and the bully just fight one on one.

I smashed his face into a metal fence. He was far less willing to pick on me when he realised I wasn't afraid of actually hurting him.

I then get up like I had aced it and go to turn it in, but made sure he was in front of me in line to hand it to the teacher. He hands his in, I turn around and go back to my desk to fill in the correct answers. Dude failed math that quarter. Suck it Bully.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I was in 4th grade and had been bullied by a kid named Rocky, swear to God that was his name lol, who was in 6th grade. Any way he would trip me, knock books out of my hands, punch me etc....

One day out on the playground he pushed me into the merry go round while it was spinning, I was rolled around inside it while people were trying to stop it. The whole time he's laughing at me.

I get pulled out and I'm scraped up pretty good, get taken to the office to get patched up. Teachers ask what happened, I told them I fell.

Went back outside and saw him standing there with his buddies, I ran as fast as I could toward him and punched him as hard as I could in the face, broke his nose and just stood there looking at him ready to fight. His buddies told him to leave me alone and I never got picked on again at school.

Like open handed b***h slapping this kid. I did that for like two minutes and then sat back down. The whole bus started laughing at him and the bus driver laughing his a** off too told the guy to p**s me of again so I would slap him again. That kid NEVER bothered me again. It was great

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey Little late to the party but I'll share.

This happened in first grade. I had a bully who would tease me, knock me down, and push me around. One day I was on the jungle gym and he pushed me off. I fell, broke my arm, and had to get stitches above my eye.

When I came back to school the next Monday I walked up to him, on the playground, and swung my cast right at his face; breaking his nose.

After that he left me alone.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I was being bullied at school and it got to the point where I was sick to my stomach going to school everyday. Finally, one day I decided I would rather get beat up and get it over with than keep going on this way. When my bully started in on me at the playground with three other girls backing her up, I just let out all that frustration and basically went psycho and said come on let's do this! She totally backed down. Apparently, all of her harassment was her just joking with me and why was I taking it so seriously.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey I went to a Boys only secondary school and was THE kid to pick on. Even the nerds who had a good day in the computer lab felt it was acceptable. All because of my history of Absence Epilepsy made me look like a tit nearly every day.

I'd had enough, and was moving schools for numerous reasons, including the bullying. This meathead Alex (F**k you Alex) got me in a headlock and started rubbing my scalp and trying to poke my eyes out. This was it, last day at this POS school. No punishments for anything...

From the headlock I grabbed his waist and stood up to bring him upside down (we were on a small steep slope at the edge of our school sports field) and f*****g piledrived him to the mud. Got him in a leg choke and scribbled the word Bully in biro into his forehead. Let him go, grabbed my back and walked out of school, never to be seen again.

OR SO I THOUGHT. I was a season ticket holder at my local football team (soccer) and saw him on the bus to the ground. I looked him dead in the eye the entire ride, still imagining the scribble on his forehead. He could barely look at me. Bullys are just cowards with a thick shell. Break it and they will leave you alone.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey In high school, there was a group of kids my age who used to bully me. It was one of the reasons I hated high school so I graduated a year early and went off to our local university.

The next year, I'm walking across campus and one of the guys who was in the group runs up to me, excited to see someone he knew on campus and wanting to know where a certain building was.

Now this was a huge campus. I had classes that I could not get to on time without a bike because the class before it was so far away and we had 15 minutes between classes.

So he's all excited to see me and asking directions, which I gladly provided. /s

Yeah, he didn't get to his class on time. I'm pretty sure he's still looking for that building.

29 Times People Online Actually Got Revenge On Their Bullies And It Was Sweet Like Honey In 10th grade, there used to be a trend called folding, (Or nuggeting is what people are telling me), where you would turn someone's backpack inside out, put everything inside it, then zip tie it. Well, the way I prevented this was to put two 5 pound metal weights inside.

Now, there was one bully that would thrive off of making all negative attention turn to me. "I may have done that, but (me) is stupid" ect. Well, at one point I left the class and came back and this guy folded my backpack. Teacher walks out of the room and the bully turns to me and goes "Hey look, (me) got what he deserved."

Now, I'm not that strong, but I swung that backpack in into his face as hard as I could and knocked him down.

Got suspended, and he tried to keep bullying me. I finally walked up to him and went, "do you want me to snap again?". He stopped after that. Made me so happy.

Once a much bigger kid (you know those guys who failed twice in primary school and started puberty before everyone) tried his luck at bullying me by locking me in a locker... (how f*****g cliche I know, I think I'm claustrophobic today because of it). The second I got out, I went into the classroom, walked straight up to him (he was sitting down) grabbed a chair on my way and slammed it on his head. I don't remember much of what happened next because I was in that red state of rage. He never bothered me again and I didn't get in trouble, the teachers loved me and he was a regular bully.

Fourth grade, there was a boy who liked to pull my ponytail. Not a little tug, either -- he'd come up behind me and YANK it. Tried shouting at him, slapping him, even told on him once, but the teacher didn't care. Started wearing a braid instead, which of course he still pulled. After a couple weeks, I went to school with a bunch of straight pins in my braid. One pull, problem solved.

I've got a weird one, the guys I hung out with were all bullied as was I. All boys school and everyone fighting for dominance, used to get stabbed with compasses, punched, all sorts. Anyway, one day, a guy who wasn't a bully started slapping me around the head with a ruler, it wasn't hard just really annoying and I absolutely lost it, grabbed the ruler off and battered him until the red went. He leant into me and said " no one will ever dare touch you again after that". He'd planned it to stop me getting bullied, 14 years old and a master of teen psychology, I'd love to buy him a beer now but he's an archaeologist in Australia so it's unlikely as I'm still UK based. But faaaark, I'll never forget that, utterly selfless.

Not really revenge (at least not deliberately?) but one time the popular girls brought spicy chilli peppers into class and dared people to eat them they could record them on their phones and laugh at them while they were in pain from the spices. Problem is, I had a higher pain tolerance towards spicy foods than they were expecting (jalapeños are one of my favourite pizza toppings hahaha) so much that they got pissed at me for ruining their video and accused me of not chewing the peppers properly when I didn't show any outward signs of distress.

But there was 1 kid that was so bad, he wasn't allowed to sit near my son. One day, the teacher left the room (they weren't to be left alone together) & this kid gets up, & heads right to him. Son told him to leave several times, but this boy kept taunting, hitting & throwing things. He lost his temper when the kid talked about me. He went after him, chased him down the hall & threw him headfirst into lockers. I said he wouldn't be punished at home since they failed to do their job & he was defending his family. VP was livid. Saw the kid a few years ago, 25yo looked strung out. He wouldn't look at son. Karma is a b***h

I used humor to escape bullying. First people were laughing at me. Then I started making jokes about myself and people stopped laughing at me and started laughing with me. Pretty soon we weren't even laughing about me anymore and the bullying was mostly left behind. I realize that it's not this easy for everyone and perhaps I'm oversimplifying but I know a lot of comedians started because they had trouble being bullied or just had trouble with other people in general.

I went to Landmark Middle School. I say this so you can Google it. You'll find the Diego Stolz case, but go further back, look for Jerod Schroeder. He was in my little sister's class. Jerod's death was absolutely an accident, but initially, it looked like bullying gone too far, so the school's policies were pretty on top of bullying after that. The problem with that is that a policy is only as good as the people enforcing it. A twenty-year-old policy didn't stop another boy from being bullied and killed on campus. It comes down to administrators taking reports of bullying seriously and taking action based on those reports. Policy doesn't mean squat if administrators won't follow it.

Jesus, where to begin? I grew up in a strait up ghetto. I’m a lithe white girl and just couldn’t win. Middle school I listened to hip-hop (genuinely liked it) but was called a ‘wigger’ and ‘poser’. Alrighty then, highschool began and I went back to rock and metal, full on goth. Now I’m the “freak” and “witch”… seriously, could not win. I’m in my thirty’s now and things have changed but holy s**t did those years suck. Many other stories as well.

The guy who bullied me the most ended up being a junkie. As an adult, I can see all of the circumstances that caused him to become a bully, including an abusive home. I just felt so sad for him when I found out. Although I'm still dealing with the issues that he and his cohort caused, I'm the luckier of the two of us.

Me being the 6th grade 5 foot tall weird girl, had this one jerk- who was a year younger than me but about 5’4 ish- who would punch me on the back every day. Not a playful punch, an angry hit. Hit him back one day, and he almost fell over. He continued to hurt me though, so my mom gave me full permission to threaten him, and she told my teacher what I would say. The next day, before he punched me I said: “ I’m sick of letting you hurt me. If you hit me one more time, I will punch your nose through the back of your head. ” he backed off. He is actually now my best friend’s boyfriend, but we just don’t speak to each other. My best friend makes sure to keep me and the kid apart

Not me, but my friend. He noticed that the kid was sitting next to him was copying his test. So every test of the year, he wrote down answers he knew were wrong, waiting for the kid to turn in the test, then he would erase it all and write down the correct answers. After one of the tests the kid approached him, and said that he copied of his test and faild, but my friend passed, and was trying to figure out why. My friend told him and the kid just stared at him confused.

He was more of a smart a** than a bully but he told all of his friends he was going to beat me up. So I avoided him for two days since he wouldn't try it at school Sure enough Saturday was the day. He started with name calling and things went downhill I picked my spot, took a stance, and motioned to come on. He charged thinking to knock me down like I knew he would. I slid to the left, grabbing his right arm. Judo chop to the base of the neck, followed by elbow to the skull. Don't mess with a military kid who spent two years in Japan and a year on South Korea.

She complained and went to the head of year, then she dropped out and went to the local paper saying she had to leave school because of the bullying. We studied the article for GCSE media studies!!

Me and my friends are hanging out in the basement when b***h girl #1 comes down and starts actually being friendly. My cat Hannah walks over to see her and this b***h hauls off and kicks her. Long story short, bully girl’s nose got broken and she lost a good chunk of hair. Hannah was ok, just scared and bruised. Never heard another word for the last week of school, which was a nice reprieve.

Had a bully two years older than me, from grade school to high school. Missed out on the harassment in junior high because it was a two year school and she went to high school by the time I got in. Just horrible for no reason to me. Once at a summer parade day in my town I had just dropped my moms handgun at her job for her and was going back home a diff way. Bully smashed me in the face f*****g up my new glasses. Got by standers to try to snatch her but she ran off. My grandmother when I got home called the cops who went to her house and her parents saw my mom and gave her $ for the glasses. But in high school a few years later she came at me in a hallway saying I was talking about her. I didn't realize after two years without her she would be there. She's grabbing my hair. Kicked me in the shin with those 70s style wood clog shoes an fractured my shin. I saw white an just (as I was told) smashed her face into a brick wall and went mental. Moser beow on herin

Sorry about last line. Anyway after that in the office the principle had us in the lobby. She tried to spit on me. I went in first and showed them my leg an explained all the years of this s**t from her for no reason. They suspended her two weeks. I got nothing but them saying if she comes at me again it's in her file she will be expelled. Year or so later I'm working in the office as a class and she's got in school detensions. I'm to mark it off every time she's there. She tries to be nice to me to get me to take extras off. Once a week is add 3 on. Took her a year to finish a week of them. Met her years later fat an drunk in a bar. Train wreck. Just walked away. She's still a mess.

Why schools makes the victim of bully write a apology letter. do not principal or teachers know the kid is bully. Why to at first place welcome such behavior. They need serious mental treatment must be under depression or pack of love of issues at home. This is almost found with 99℅ of kids, coworker, manager being bully. Mental sickness. If such person cannot identify their behavior as bully. Others need to make them know of need of mental assessment . It's serious issues thenuppy kid layer becomes bully coworkers or managers or neighbors tht if not stopped by his first victim becomes more trouble to all in passing years. It's needs stopping... I have done in college many times to seniors n boys who would come forth for ragging or molestation or abuse to girls...

Had a girl try to bully me. Would just be really annoying by kicking the back of my chair and whispering to her friends in an obvious way. Everyone called her Candy but her real name was Candida (Not sure which book her parents picked that unfortunate name from) so i let her know that if she didnt leave me alone, I'd put posters all over school letting everyone know her name meant "yeast infection". That put a quick end to it.

Had an uncle who was a year older than me. Grandfather was a man-whore, one of his affairs dropped his f**k-trophy off at his house and walked away. Grandma took Uncle in and raised him as her own. Fast forward a few years, we are a close family and we are in school together. Uncle's an unrepentant bully. Buddies in private, acts disgusted by my existence, does everything to humiliate me in public. We had LOTS of fist-fights. He was a scrappy little dude, and he won most of them. I was 17 before I finally got fed up and faced him down one good time, let him know one of us was going to the hospital this time. Fast forward again, we drift apart, don't see each other for years. I have a pretty good life; I hear Uncle has 6 DUI's and his wife really wants to leave him. One morning, I get the call - Uncle has been run over by a semi-truck and squashed like a pancake. Best day of my life! Turns out he had also horribly abused my grandmother when she became disabled. Karma's a b***h aint it!

Experience horrible bullying when I had to change schools because we moved. Because of a glitch in registration I arrived a day late. I was a geeky kid and they started in on me right after the teacher introduced me. Said some pretty awful stuff right infront of her. She said nothing. It was brutal. Our history teacher was from Checoslovakia. They made fun of his accent right to his face. He didn't say anything. 13 years old and because of it I experienced my very first thoughts of suicide, I just didn't know how to do it. We later found out if they tried to discipline any kids they were contacted by the parent and bullied. Gee, wonder where the kids got it from. Thank God my parents found a way to get me out of there. The next school I went to was the best thing that ever happened to me. It completely changed the trajectory of my life, to this day, and I've had a pretty amazing one. As far as those kids, now adults are concerned, frankly Scarlet, I don't give a $*!+!

I was bullied on and off by various kids, all throughout secondary and high school. I was called names, my mother was called names, I had my hair set on fire, was hit, shoved, spit at etc. I beat one older boy so bad I bruised him all over, as a thanks for years of abuse...I slapped a girl so hard she called me crazy and stayed away after that...while the one that set my hair on fire I met a few years ago by accident in our home town, a sad, depressed, miserable shell of a human being desperate to get her hands on a rich guy and drop a kid because she didn't accomplish anything in her life. Ironically, finding herself at a restaurant table surrounded by doctors (one of them also bullied by her in highschool) and architects her age, some foreign, speaking a language she didn't understand, talking about topics way out of her depth...and I felt so sorry for her...

I had been bullied my entire school life. What stood out? I'm a girl and was always the tallest kid in class, every single year. I used to hate my height because it made me such a target. In high school it got worse, kids went from name calling to actual ways to humiliate me, the girls were worse, at least guys were obvious in their actions, girls preyed on my desire for acceptance and to have friends. One Halloween, the guys made the mistake of egging my house, and found out first hand how far my dad would go to punish them. He knew all their parents. They left me alone for a while once my dad went to each house. My final revenge came in last year of high school. I simply didn't care anymore. I didn't care what they thought of me, I didn't want to be invisible and I didn't want to fit in and dress like everyone else, I found my own style. They were shocked that I no longer reacted. I overheard a group make plans to try to get me to agree to be a prom date, and then just stand me up.

I pretended to say yes. Went a long with all their plans and such. When the time came to pick me up, I knew they weren't gonna show. I waited a bit, and then showed up fashionably late. With the guy I had been long distance dating for 6 months. Imagine the looks on their faces when I showed up, all gorgeous, with a guy taller than me with black hair and light blue eyes with the longest eye lashes ever. "You thought you could ruin the night everyone, including me, has been looking forward to all year? I know I never did anything to any of you and I just want you all to know that this will be the last time I think of you." I spoke to nobody till the last day of school. They have no influence on me at all. Ps. I married the gorgeous guy. I'm one of few people in my class that didn't end up a single parent.

He noticed me and started yanking on my backpack. I tried to ignore it but he wouldn't let go. At that time, I had one of those kiddie water bottles with a shoulder strap. I don't know what possessed me to swing that water bottle at him. It landed on his face and he had a massive nosebleed. Terrified, I ran to my classroom. His teacher notified mine and my mom got a call that day. He wouldn't even talk to me anymore after that.

In kindergarten there was a sixth grader who was in the Kindergartener hallway, bullying me and shoving me into the wall. I had enough, because my six year old self needed to get to class, so I kicked him below the belt, which brought him to his knees. I didn't get in trouble by the school, but they still called my parents to report the incident. I didn't get in trouble at home either.

I went to ten different schools bc of constantly moving. Never had a problem always fit in and made friends quickly until my freshman year. This girl on my bus decided I was her target. Finally at the end of the year I kicked her by swinging my legs up in the aisle and when she fell over I used all of my strength to keep her from getting up and kicked the crap out of her. She was my best friend after that and her and her gang of friends were my bodyguards up until we graduated from high school.

My bullies wouldn’t even recognise me now. They used to give me heck for being autistic & were the first to say I was faking when I suffered real illness in school. I’ve had chronic illness all my life, which only got worse with age; & my GP eventually had me removed from school permanently (I just couldn’t cope any more & he was very concerned about my mental health). Now I’m officially type 1 diabetic, a sepsis survivor (with PTSD from major medical trauma/terrifying coma-dreams I was trapped in for 5 weeks), a lower right leg amputee after having CRPS for 10 years & I have lost a lot of weight especially over the last few years. I’ve had a couple of those bullies try to friend me on FB, but I want none of that, TBH. Some might say “give them a chance” but I want to move on with my life & not be reminded of my terrible past. They wouldn’t recognise me anyway, I’ve changed that much. They’d probably be shocked. 😕🤷‍♀️🏥👩🏻‍🦽

When I was 14 /15, there was this boy, who wasn't particularly smart or attractive... but he was strong (farmer's kid). He mostly bullied girls...because they didn't want anything to do with him because of his questionable personal hygiene. At some point he had chosen me as a "victim". He made rude remarks about my shape, laughed at me when I gave wrong answers in class, etc, etc. At some point even the other girls laughed along (group dynamics). At some point my teacher said to me that I should fight him with "my weapons" and that I was much better at using words than he was. I did that then. I made him cry... with just words... in front of everyone. I was being really mean and inconsiderate... and part of me even felt sorry for him... but the other part was glad he was quiet for quite a while afterwards.
