I was shit at all sports. I still am.
I resent being made to play sports at school. I was a weak kid who was humiliated once a week because of adults making me do stuff I couldn't do, I fucking hated it. I hated them. If I could, I would go back and tell them what a bunch of cunts they are. Especially one particular cunt of a teacher (I forget his name) who would laugh at me for being so bad. I'm not so weak now, sunshine.
There's no way I will force my kids into sports or anything else if they don't want to. Let them do what they're good at instead.
To quote lyrics from the late great Vivian Stanshall....
Let's go back to your childhood
The odd boy lay down by the football field
Took out a slim volume of Mallarme.
The centre-forward called him an imbecile.
It's an odd boy who doesn't like sport.
Sport, Sport, masculine sport.
Equips a young man for society.
Yes, sport turns out a jolly good sort.
It's an odd boy who doesn't like sport.
Dear Mr. Poxham, would you kindly excuse Steven from
Games today? He has had a nasty cold over the weekend and
Still has headaches and feels a bit snotty. I don't feel
He should be outside with the rougher type of boy, as he
Is a little delicate. Hoping you will understand, yours
Sincerely, Nellie Maynard, Mrs.
Give him a nice, cold shower.
