Forbidden Thought

Are the torments of junior high school that close to my daily consciousness? How much of a mark did bullies leave, way back then?

I saw this headline:

Three-fourths of state kids not physically fit, test shows

and the first thought in my head was "at last, someone I can kick around and get away with it."

For my thought-crime, I'll do a hundred push-ups, in penance (it'll just make me more formidable, anyway, when I bust people up at recess for lunch money).
