Actually no. Bullies overall tend to be pretty well-adjusted psychologically. The whole "lashing out because of their own feelings of inadequacy" theory has turned out to be largely wrong.
You're probably right. I wouldn't put it past me to believe that people just came up with that logic to make them or the people getting bullied to feel better. At the end of the day, we really can't speak for all bullies. From the scenarios I've seen and heard, it's usually people who think they are better than everyone else, but they bullied people in front of others to get attention. So, while they might have "high self-esteem", the fact that they are doing it for attention raises the flag of the previous said statement.

Pretty much spot on.
I honestly thought that if I gave you a break that you would take up that opportunity to have an amiable conversation. But I can't help you if you enjoy being a victim. If you keep choosing to respond to derision in ways that provoke more derision, then you're stuck.
That's the problem, I'm not the "victim" and I'm not "stuck". As I already mentioned in this thread already, you all just created this persona of me and reacts as if I fit it. You all assume that I want to be in the "in-crowd". As a result, you also assume that I take offense to your comments and want to have a nice conversation.
I post in the out of topic to argue and debate stuff, not hold hands, sing and ask how you're day is. The moment we start agreeing on stuff, the purpose of me being here decreases.
