Asked too many questions.

pulls out pen and paper

I spent a long time in junior high trying to pick a nemesis. I thought it would push me to be better, but no one ever lived up to my expectations and the grand results were just a bunch of people I was weird to.

No. Why bother?

Let fuckwit a be fuckwit and do something more productive then let them live rent free in your head.

Guy who bullied me constantly, calling me slurs and all that. I swore I would take revenge, and broke his jaw. He pretty much stopped after that.

Trusted someone with my reputation once. Fucked me over. They went to jail for a bit. Got out, fucked someone else over, almost killed them while stealing all their retirement funds. Back to jail. Got out started grooming a child and having sex with them. They are back in jail currently.

This person taught me how to recognize evil people very quickly. I'm trying to avoid any identifying info because the second two times they were arrested made international news because of how fucked up it was both times.

In high school I called an english teacher "nemesis" for trying to make me read fictional novels every week when I was sleep deprived studying practical engineering. She forced me to go to a neurologist who diagnosed ADHD, 128 IQ. Mostly my racist parents are criminal enemies for false police reporting when I was non-violent, never self harmed nor hallucinated.

I get enough sleep and saw a thyroid nutritionist. Will not be safe until New York City's ban on qualified immunity (lawsuits) and a civilian police review board is passed to regulate the biased Nassau county cops. They gross negligently never established probable cause and tell me to "shut up."

Back in like the late 2010s it was an old coworker of mine. He came in two years after i started and swooped in and took the promotion I was gonna get because he went to highschool with my bosses daughter. I'd be more mad at the boss but this guy was absolutely insufferable about it and would boast about it literally every day and talk about how awesome he was. Would always talk about how amazing he was at his job but would crack under pressure pretty much every time. He was also one of those guys that's nice to your face but talks mad shit when you leave the room. Huge "fuckboy" energy too and always felt like he was entitled to everything. He was the kinda guy that would try to fuck your ex girlfriend the day you broke up yet still be friendly to your face. And I know that because my ex told me about it after the fact. Bro straight up sent her a request on Snapchat and Facebook out of the blue within a week after only meeting her once before.

Glad I don't work with that guy anymore and that I have a much better job. That guy lives rent free in my head and I fucking hate that he does.
