Yes, you probably would have, as those girls would, if it was the alternative to your endless detentions/their community service, because once it’s done, it’s done, unlike the detentions/community service, which would have driven you/would drive them up the bloody wall. And that’s why my way is better, Jenny.
You can’t just shrug it off, unlike even a severe thrashing after 2 or 3 weeks, if the consequences keep cropping up again and again and again. It will soon turn from being a minor drag into being a total ruddy PAIN!!!!
And the more it keeps cropping up, the greater the chance you I & even them will start to feel like everyone’s looking at us and seeing us as something unpleasant on the sole of a shoe. And we THEN might start to regret feeling like that and realise our actions are solely respnsible for that feeling. And, finally we might grasp what we did was WRONG, VERY WRONG & just possibly turn round.
