How to prank a bully, repeatable experiment... ad infinutm

Actually I keep repeating it, it's so funny.

Bullies are so much used to bully unpunished the others they do not even bother to evaluate their techniques once convinced they work perfectly, and that my friends is the psychopaths mentality in governments, army, police, movies (o yes, many actors are psychopaths and bullies) sports (big earning sport professionals too) banking, and even among the students that are to be the future of bullying, it works the same.

They love to be seen as just, paladins of liberty and justice, big earners, successful people, big shots, and once they established a modus operandi for this, they do not even bother to evaluate it or improve it.

Look at Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump or Obama, just to name a few glamorous examples.

They mostly love to be admired so they present themselves sharply dressed whether is important to be so or not in that moment in that occasion in that place, also well combed and shaved, ladies included, and yes, they brag with their sexual conquers and performances among others, like how much money they make.  They never go into details thou (actually they have no idea what they are talking about) just stay onto general affirmations and try to look like they are THE expert on that matter (does not matter what the matter is, only what the impression they can cast about themselves)

A simple way to prank them is to establish how and when they are preparing to bully somebody and make them fall into their own trap publicly.

Here is what I do in a certain type of circumstance:

To begin with study your case repeatedly, learn to recognize the pattern than act.  In this case I am the potential victim, it is just that they have no idea the victim is a trap for fools like them.

Psychopaths and generally bullies love to show up and give the others a lesson to teach them what their place is in the universe, and their place is to serve and admire and fear the psychopath, according to them.

So I walk down the street in the downtown one day, I think it was around the Harrods shop in London, if I don't recall bad, and since my alert machine is on I keep an eye on incoming traffic.  My "radar" spots somebody 50 yards (meters) ahead coming towards me doing "the move", that is putting themselves on a collision course with me, they trick is to do so without you noticing them (but I do) than all of a sudden you find yourself at 5 yards of them with 3 seconds reaction time, so what you do?  Step aside to let them pass, and they do with a royal grace that states "hey you commoner, free my path and bow in front of me".

Now to do this maneuver without being spotted they never make eye contact with the "sucker" (that would be me) but pretend to look somewhere else while with the tail of the eye keeping track of the trajectory.

That gives me some advantages, neither I make eye contact, just as a normal victim, but I move left or right slightly in my walk, and if they alter their trajectory to keep the collision course the games are made, for me.

Because they just keep you on their "radar" low profile, they cannot see much between you and them, they would be too obvious to their victim and not look like any other tourist.

So I spot a hard to see obstacle form their position, something closer to them than to me, not very tall or not very thick, trash bins and hydrants do the job, same the light poles or a step down, not a step up, that they spot.  Especially if the color is pretty much neutral and do not "HIT" the eye. I move to put the obstacle between us, they correct their course to match a collision trajectory again keeping a eye on me, but that is preventing them to see my trap.

When we are about 5 to 10 yards (meters) from each other, sometimes even less, they meet the obstacle they could not spot because keeping an eye on me at head level that thing is below their "radar", or too thin, and they bump full speed into it than fall on the sidewalk, since they come pretty aggressively towards me, their speed helps a lot to my prank.

In 3 to 10 seconds I am just passing them while they are getting up disoriented, and mostly with rubbish or dirt on their perfect outfit and face.

I naturally smile to them compassionately and politely ask if they are all right.

Just to let them know I pranked them while they were pranking me.

Trust me they are not stupid, they instantly understand the situation, and also that there is nothing they can do about it, and this kills them, some of them change their expression from utter surprise to absolute hate in a blink, revealing what was hidden under their perfect mask.

And their hate is increased exponentially by their impotence of doing anything to me publicly, humiliate me somehow, since I am but a polite by-passer asking if they are OK.

This is a simple example of a simple situation transformed in a "pranking the prankster" in less than 5 minutes taking advantage of their self confidence.

Is this working in other situations?  Hell yes, but you must be prepared, studied the case and wait for them to make "the move" on you or somebody else.

Say it is your boss or the boss of your boss or something, remember the psychopaths are NEVER guilty, anything goes wrong they will find a scapegoat and put it on them, and if somebody has a good idea they will shun them and call them names, than they will sell the same idea to the next level above as their own, shamelessly.

This is one way to identify them.

The trap is called "evil obedience trap", when a good solution is found by somebody and taken over by the bully as his own idea getting all the credit and the money coming with that, but there is a problem, they have no idea what they are talking about, so to make that work they will try to spy on you to find out what is to be really done to make it work, now that they "sold it".

In that moment I do not give them any more information, nor good (now why would I, I have no gain in it) neither fake or bad (when the shit will hit the fan they will remember who gave them fake info and blame it on you big time)

But before they hunt for info I already seed some fake info into different recipients in a manner they will never think of me poisoning their information chain so it will be delivered to the bully innocently.

Is like when they hear me talking with somebody else I mention a possible way of doing a certain job if maybe planets align correctly.

If I manage to plant 5 different seeds in 5 different heads, than the bully will come to harvest info from them his style, that is little chat at a smoke or over a beer, and he is getting a hint from the left, one from the right, and slowly they make a picture in their head, now they know how... (they think so, if they would they would of never need to harvest intelligence anyway)  and nobody can be blamed since they never asked advise thus no one gave them any advice, and they are convinced they managed to come up with the solution.

And BANG they shower on the team with their Godly perfect solution, that is wrong anyway.  It is obvious to anybody in the team, but also everybody hates them from past times when they stole ideas or cast blames.

At this point I publicly doubt their solution, and their reaction is "why"

I know why so the others, but my answer is "not sure, maybe my math is wrong" or something.  If they see you insecure they know they won so they shut me up and say "do as I said or else..." being certain you are stupid and tried to undermine their perfect solution.

From that moment on is perfect, we do as HE said, to the dot, to the comma, everything.

When is done, materials and time is wasted, and the result is useless, than the shit hits the fan.  Guess what, there is nobody he can shift the blame on, everybody saw you trying to say the solution might be wrong, everybody saw him treating you as shit for doubting him publicly.

Usually he gets fired.  Or if he own the business, he loses that client for ever, even if they are good old pals.

Me on the other hand I fix the shit back as a private contractor and get paid my price (I always finish what I started, no matter what, sometimes I lost money, but I finished the job none the less), and gain the confidence of somebody that was the unfortunate client of a bully and now they realized how much damage they paid in time for working with the psychopath.

Also as a rule of thumb, I never take clients from psychopaths that I expose, if they were stupid enough to be their clients, than I do not want them, once sorted the situation (usually on the expense of the bully) I just walk away from both.

Forever.

Verbal bullying, phisical bullying and... non verbal non phisical bullying, yap, that one exists too.

So I am nearly 50, many bullies left being in tears since my first encounter in seventh grade (first that I remember of fighting back and becoming the self appointed anti bullying police of my school, just out of rage) and I have learn some tricks down the road.

I also thought them to my son and other bullied people to the deep disappointment of bullies, may God bless their hearts and take them to heaven, the sooner the better.

Today walking in a schoolyard towards the building entry a group of students came out the doors, I was nearly on the kerb keeping straight froward, the students spread all over the sidewalk like sheep, than seeing me going towards them they kind of choose the middle of the sidewalk and some the opposite near kerb so they do not bump into me.  Rule of the first came first served applies, and they perceived me as first on that sidewalk and acted by instinct.

3 of them instead right after the whole maneuver took place instinctively, I did not even acknowledged it before that second, they looked straight at me, all of the 3 Arab Muslim, 2 boys and a girl, around 18 years old, and as pulled by a magnet they shifted onto my kerb side with a smirk chatting and getting straight into me.

It was like an exercised maneuver, and I know it is exercised since I studied that for 30 years now, why it happens, how it happens, and I know is in their culture (not of Muslims or Arabs, which this time happen to be, but in their culture of psychopaths and bullies) thought by their family since toddlers they have superior rights and others should give them way.

So I know they move into your way just to make you go around them, this is non verbal and non physical bullying.  They do it when walking, they do it when driving (even if they have to somehow get on the edge of the law, they do it)  they do it when dealing with your documents (police, customs and TSA and the army are full of psychopaths and bullies any damn given country), for they must show you who the boss is.

I went straight as a tank at my original peace (I am not a slow walker anyway) and at a few feet from me they were surprised I ignore their maneuver and keep going ahead, they looked contradicted, it was not something they are used with, an inferior being (because I was older or maybe not Muslim or any other reason they gave themselves) and two of them shifted towards the middle of the sidewalk in the last second while the third had no more room and had to get his shoes wet on the grass.

I went straight to the door and minded my business, but what if instead of me were somebody who would feel threatened by their attitude?  The rest of the sidewalk was taken by the crowd and they would of had to go on the grass in the rain just because the 3 wanted to prove their race superiority?

I am studying bullies for my entertainment and to develop anti bullying techniques to pass to others, but sometimes I feel compelled to use them myself.

The trick is to show them you are better then they are, and this only works if not in private, but in public, where they can be shun by everybody else if they become aggressive, which they usually do in private.  To confront them in private you must be trained to be more verbal than they can be, fast thinker and if physically abused, you must know some good self defense, but in public is far easier, they break the rules, you expose them, they fade.

So what is bullying looks like?

It is an attempt of the modern society to limit bullying definitions to bad children in school mocking and hitting those they think are less strong, defenseless or undependable by their parents.

You see that in movies, in schools anti bullying policies, in psychology manuals, in the conferences speech content.

Why so?

Easy, it is catchy, we talk about children abusing other children, and all of a sudden being their paladin, speaking up for them, it pays, big money.  Of course no real results, even worse, the bullies will refine their technics so they are not in the public eye any longer, so as adults they are expert bullies, untouchable, uncatchable.

I was running every now and then experiments while walking on the streets based on my understanding of how a bully can refine their techniques to see if am I right or wrong in my assumptions, so with the years I came to some understanding that is regrettably absolutely ignored by the "experts" in bullies, simply because it makes them no money.

I will every now and then describe one or another experiment and my funny conclusions, and obviously the anti bulling tactics I developed out of this, and how they can empower the bullied person to counter attack in a way that said bully will stay away not only from them, but from anybody else that might know them, as a precautionary measure, yes, bullies are also cautions when in danger of getting exposed.

Since in secondary school I noticed bullies mostly attack alone or in a group of their own trusted followers, never among other people that could testify against them, and they study their victims previously to make sure they can win unconditionally.

I was a seventh grader, bullying was not even known as a word than, nobody cared, going to tell the teachers somebody abused you was considered cowardly, so many students just took it and shoveled it down somehow.

I was skinny, extremely tall, was looking like a pen, long, thin, feeble and easy to break in pieces between two fingers.

In our school a new student was accepted, later I learned he was cast away from other schools for bad attitude, and I think his parents knew somebody in this school so they got him in somehow.

The guy was a psychopath (another notion unknown to me at the time) and collected data about everybody pretending to be their friend and chatting so he could identify his victims based on a scheme in his head.

I happened to be a loner, so he thought I am easy prey for his muscles (he had no idea I was all fiber and joints, I was lifting and doing martial arts, but again I was a loner and no other kids in school knew it either)

Meanwhile he pushed some girls and pulled their hair, for the fun of some others, thus he created his little group of support.

One day, a Thursday, I remember for Thursdays I had painting class, and the painting lab was in the attic of the school, just above the president's office, I was going down the stairs in the lunch break heading out to buy something to eat,  just like everybody else, but as usually I stayed behind the class just to be with my thoughts, and apparently he knew of this habit already. 
He was waiting for me in the large hallway below, and when I turned up on the top of the stairs, he walked right up closing behind the door, just him and me, perfect moment, no witnesses, and asked me for my lunch cash while smashing me at the wall.

He had a good technique, so I assume he did it often with good results for him.  Not  this time thou.  I placed an elbow in his solar plex so he lost his breathing, than I grabbed him by the collar and lifted him at my height, face to face, he was not expecting that would be possible.  As a quick reaction he spat me in the face, but he also was yellow and shaking, the bully was now the victim of his own scheme.

I was blind and needed both my hands to clean my face, so I threw him against the opposite wall thinking I shall clean my eyes than fight him than and there.

Next second when I opened my cleaned eyes he was nowhere to be found, he run down and through the doors, out.  Nor the coming day, neither the entire next week he came back to school.  I learned from his admirers he was afraid if I grab him I will break every single bone he had.

He came back after a week of absence, kept clear from me all the rest of the year, and kept clear from bullying anybody else as I made it clear to all my colleagues that if they hear anything they come and talk to me and I shall find him even if it would be in his moms kitchen.  And he heard of this.

Nobody trained me about bullying and how to handle it before that, nor after, but I kind of trained myself and with interesting results over the years.
