Last Conformist - I don't mean getting mad - I mean going berserkr, to borrow from the Norse roots. I pulled the bastard off my back, over my head, one handed to get at him (and he was a little taller that me and built the same). I tried to f**kin kill him, it took five people including a football player to get me off him and they had to bodily pick me up while ripping my arms free - two people per arm plus the football player bodily picking me up. I had every intention of strangling him to death, and left a bruise all around the front of his neck.

It's one of the reasons I've never been drunk - there is a history of berserking in my family. Trust me, if you go berserk versus going into a simple rage, you will know it and it will scare you. You have no control, and you will, if nobody intervenes, kill, cripple, or maim him until it subsides. I suspect it is what people call a killing rage. I was lucky, I found out when I was able to dodge any run-ins with the law, as I was clearly assualted.

It also meant that girls looked at me a little bit askance, as in my fellow acedemic types I was interested in. Thus the attempt to be successful at sports - there is a difference between "successful at sports" and "he almost killed KevinS," and in our nice middle class suburb the latter was NOT considered paticularly attractive.

I suppose that's a point; I usually stopped beating people when they stopped fighting back.

(One of the things I did that did seem have a deterent effect was when a classmate, for no reason I ever learnt, attacked me form the behind; I turned around and sent him to the school nurse with a lucky first kick. Maybe I should've tried and kill him on the ground before his friends carried him off, and nobody would've attacked me again.)

i have only been in 1 fight in highshool...got mugged...but never something like this...i normally could always talk them out of it...but ones a guy punched me in my stomach (didnt hurt, lousy punch i think) and then i just grabbed his neck and pushed him put against a wall...he started punching my stomach some more...still didnt hurt...and i just kept him up in the air until he gave up...after that never a fight...because i talked them out of it or they remembered that.....it is not that i can take a beating that well...got mugged ones and took me a while to get over that me and 1 mugger both in the hospital...but that fight in shool did a lot for my rep...

For me, I managed to get beat on by the toughest kid in my elementary school, and walked away without a scratch. No one picked on me after that.

If the first two words are correct, I have some other ideas for the "R", but I don't want to offend.

Put an end to popups!

a person at my lost job advised me against revealing past nicknames, as those people will use it all the time. But I'll say them, despite my fear of embarrassment.

Beavis
Garth

both because I have(had) blonde hair. In high school, my hair was a lot like Garth's, and I wore glasses too- though I didn't wear the plastic rimmed ones.

purple
willie mays

these last 2 are based off my last name. It shouldn't be hard to figure out given those 2 clues.

gimp (not one of the nicknames I enjoyed).
hesher (in junior high school)
crazy (not a nickname I enjoyed either- all because I threatened to slash some chick's tires- I was an alcoholic back in those days)

that's all I can remember anyways.

If you feel you must call me one, call be Beavis or hesher. Those are the 2 nicknames I prefer. Hesher was more of an insult back in my junior high school, because I went to school with a bunch of preppies, but I've grown out of all the torment they gave me in junior high school. The word doesn't bother me now (but it did back then)
