from the thesaurus: synonyms for antagonists -

adversary, enemy, for, opponent, bad person.

So, I feel that using the words "bad guy" in reference to being opposed to or against something or challenging something is being an antagonist or a bad person/bad guy. in that respect, my dad was the bad guy and I enjoy being like him, in that sense.

So if you think about it, and I realize there are a few who read things here and do not think about what they read because they are so quick to make fun of me, they miss the whole point of what was written or perhaps they wish to take attention away from what was written by attempting to steer conversation in another direction, such as the oft reference to some settlement and which they never seem to have "the rest of the story"
