I’m wagering he was the last kid to get picked for any team; by virtue of being crap at everything.
I mean, so was I, but I didn’t decide to poison the well just because I couldn’t reach the bucket; I got good at things through effort on my own time. Now I can deadlift twice my bodyweight.
I understand that Balos is trolling, but the perspective he represents is one of a rubbish attitude toward life, so it’s very hard to relate to it.
Heh you’re talking to the original fat kid, albeit one that was normally amongst the first picked because I could pretty much steamroller the opposition once I got moving.
Some (American) football players are straight-up obese because of that very reason.
Nice, that was a quick correction before I could say Hand-Egg. I was a rugby player, too slow for football (soccer).
Speaking of which, I thought about a variant of the sport in which the rules are pretty much the same, but the “ball” is a very fragile egg-like thing, and the goal is to ensure that it gets to the scoring area without breaking. I’d watch that.
The Afghan equivalent of Polo, Buzkashi, is normally played with a carcass, does that count?
I’ve heard about that, but no, that’s still a bit more durable. I’m talking about a ball that’s one-and-done if you drop it. Probably not made from glass, but definitely very fragile so that you can’t do anything more than hold it without breaking it.
Like a baby human?
Or a fragile ego…
