I was a misfit in school, and had my share of friends I thought were my
friends.  I had real friends as well, butvery few.  I was smart, but didn't
fall in with the popular cliques, and found myself the target of being
bullied and picked onby older kids.  Nice thing about the few friends I had
was they had me covered.  Instead of being singled out in a hallway, a jerk
wouldn't bother me if there was someone else with me.

While I hated being treated like crap by bullies, I never had thoughts of
killing anyone.  Coming back later in life and making them miserable sounded
more fun.  For a millisecond I entertained thethought of burning down the
school.  I never would do such a thing, but I realized if i burned it down,
another school would bebuilt or the cliques and other BS in schools would be
relocated elsewhere.
