To this day, I still cannot understand why people do malicious things like this. Why do some people have insufficient empathy? Was I an early bloomer in terms of gaining empathy, or are low empathy teens simply unapologetic scumbags? (Or... something else? The fact that some grow up into responsible adults suggests that there may be something else to this.)
Yeah, that's probably the weirdest part of where this conversation has gone, to me: I never did anything like this as a kid, and neither did any of my friends. The absolute worst we got up to was skipping the last class of the day once or twice a week to play videogames or catch a movie. Consequently, I just don't understand this need to cause aggravation that some people seem to have; why is this appealing?
