He's always wore sketchers. Like since he was 4. Recently, he got really emotionally taking about shoes he wanted for middle school. He said if he doesn't get Nikes he's going to get teased. Great fucking marketing work Nike.

    It works if they're not comebacks, but actually hurtful insults.

    They go hard, you go harder.

    When I first got a girlfriend in highschool this one kid was teasing me for it so I flipped it and said "hey at least I have a girlfriend" I hit him so hard where it hurts that he actually never bullied me again and he actually tried to be my friend for a bit
