When I was in elementary school there was a kid that kept bullying me. One day I was walking home with my older brother, and the jerk was chucking rocks at us. We both kind of ignored him until he pelted me in the side of the head, leaving a nasty ass welt. My brother chased him down after that, picked him up, and threw the jerk and his skateboard across the road. I didn't get fucked with again, and later on in high school the guy apologized to me.
I don't really talk to my brother anymore after he pulled a gun on my friend he was dating, but I'll always remember the time he defended the fuck out of me.
