If you could take revenge on a high school bully by telling the truth, would you?

I'm with AJ...revenge means we're stuck on something but we have the ability to move past it. Bullies are awful, but they don't deserve our attention (often what they're seeking).
I like the old saying about drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. When you hold on to something and carry it with you, it's bad for your mind, body and soul. Let it go - that may require therapy but to stay stuck on a bully's actions is dragging that weight around. We can't change or control others' actions but we can control how we respond to them.
If it's current/in real time - by all means, spill it. Because the more we speak out against bullying, the more difficult it is for the bully to pull his/her crap. But if it's from the past, put it to rest there.
