What did you do to this bully to get revenge? This bully still bothering you??
This was emotional, not physical, bullying (unless I were to count pebble-throwing as "physical") that went on for a while: insults, snide comments etc. After this person grinned with absolute delight when I got a low mark for interrupting class, I waited until class was over and responded to the grin with a very vigorous slap.
What followed was a fortunately democratic form of "disciplinary action" during which I argued that we should all strive towards solutions, not blame. Thankfully, people in my class shunned the idea of disciplinary action, and apart from the vast majority who abstained, most voted against any penalities.
This person didn't bother me again at all, though the sarcasm and cruelty were still there, under the surface.
