Watching the kids watch Arthur... yes that's as exciting as it sounds, which is not very much. Todays' episode is about a bully, now besides a bully -not- wanting to fight, he has a heart to heart with Arthur about always winning at things. Now here's where this gets me, see I had a few bullies in highschool and multiple similar conversations, but never with a bully.
The closest I ever came to it was talking to a near psycho killer about his girlfriend and how he didn't want to mess it up with her. I remember trying to tell him to simply -not- be a prick and maybe stop telling everyone how bad she was during sex.
The idea of having to tell people to "be nice" is odd... to me being nice was a sort of given, even if it was selfish. If I wanted to go to the store, I asked nicely, I got to go. Movies, candy, toys, games... hell everything I wanted if I was polite I got, strange. Mainly because around that time in my life I tried getting dates... which never worked when I was polite, ask nicely and you got rejected.
The annoying part was by then I wasn't good at being rude. I watched guys like said bully walk through hot, beautiful, exotic, and various other versions of females... only to have the very qualities they were attracted to him by, repel them later. Women, you confuse me to this day.
By the way, his response to my advice to be nice to his girlfriend (sweet girl, currently a model) was "Nah..."
