I think I understand what groiny was saying in that too much is being labelled as bullying these days and not to good effect - oblique Oct 4, 11:15 16
- Why wouldn't it count as bullying? It's a type of abuse. -- nm - Roger More Oct 4, 11:18
- yeah, to me "bullying" is when you feel threatened, for your safety. - groiny Oct 4, 11:16 13
  - That definition is far too specific. - ty97 Oct 4, 11:19
  - So psychologically torturing someone that results in mental anguish isn't bullying ? -- nm - decline Oct 4, 11:18 4
    - depends. - groiny Oct 4, 11:20 2
      - well, I would hate to have to draw that line. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:20 1
        
        sure, it is hard to do. nm -- nm - groiny Oct 4, 11:21
    - Just man up. Groiny did. -- nm - ty97 Oct 4, 11:19
  - I get what loosilu is going for also though. If that was printed by someone on Facebook against a kid, we'd all call it bullying without a doubt -- nm - oblique Oct 4, 11:18 5
    - and this was in print, in the yearbook. Permanent. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:19 4
      - Mind you, I doubt I'd make a beef of it 42 years later, but still. -- nm - ty97 Oct 4, 11:20 3
        
        the guy is dying, cut him some slack. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:20 2
        
        I'm not on his case, I'm just guessing I would let it go in his case (though I guess I can't know) -- nm - ty97 Oct 4, 11:21
        
        call me an asshole, but he has other things he should be worried about IMO. nm -- nm - groiny Oct 4, 11:21
  - Maybe for boys. Girls rarely threaten violence, but you would not believe how vicious they can be. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:17
- that printing was far beyond rude and harassing. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:15
