its too bad i cant turn my talent for saying inappropriate things into a lucrative career.

Some of the parents were gathered bitching about dodge ball being a cruel and humiliating activity that should be banned from school gym class.

Thinking to myself.. the world is a cruel and humiliating place.. at least their fat kids are getting a work out. When annoyed by stupidity, i tend to blurt out what im thinking. In this case.. i might have said something to the effect of

"well, if some kid comes to their high school with a gun and starts shooting up the place... you'll wish they had played more dodgeball when they were younger."

The plain truth and obvious logic of my statement obviously made them feel stupid, then guilty (for secretly agreeing), and then angry for making them feel bad... so they acted shocked and disagreed with me, and made it like im the bad guy.

Yea.. im the bad guy. Who's got the fat son who other kids are gunna hide from bullets behind?

I don't get dodgeball. We used to play sports that involved teamwork, and throwing the ball TO each other, not AT each other with the intention of injury. And there are plenty of ways you can get exercise without dodgeball (trampolining was my favourite because my being rubbish didn't let down the rest of the team and get me ignored for the rest of the day).

Just a thought. Seens dodgeball encourages violence and aggression, and not cooperation. Work that one into your gun theory tongue

I was the skinny, dorky kid that everyone tried to get out first. I had mad dodgeball skills.
