    I _ loved dodgeball, it was probably one of the most fun and ridiculous sports especially if people decided to try and pick on you to test your reaction speeds. The balls were mostly harmless and it'd usually end in laughter.

    I was a shut-in as a kid, and one of the first families in my class to have a home computer, meaning I could play computer games all day long.

    Even so, dodgeball was the shit. If you could deal, you could deal. If you couldn't deal, you got the fuck off the court. I'm proud to admit that despite my piggy-like complexion, I was one of the kids that could deal, and there were only a handful that couldn't. Even the girls made it a point to play support by either choosing to be medic, running around retrieving balls, or making callouts.

    Nowadays I work at the YMCA, and they got rid of all the rubber balls and replaced them with foam ones, and you're STILL not allowed to play dodgeball. This was so bullshit to me that I straight up defied them and ran an underground game of dodgeball.

    A kid got hit ONCE with a foam ball and started crying and told his mom, and I got in big fucking trouble.

    Shame.

    The teacher once accidentally hit me in the face when I was in 3rd grade, and I just laughed it off and told him I was good to go. Sad how the things we used to enjoy as kids are slowly going the way of the dinosaur.

    you did a logical thing, and some bitch ass kid cried over being bonked by foam...
    ... this is why snitches get stitches.
    that kid needs to get some perspective and understand that there are worse things than foam balls, such as finding out the logical consequences for bitch ass actions.

    Funny enough, the more Chad kids surrounded the snitch kid and straight up told him never to do that ever again, and he practically shit himself, but the damage was already done and I was on a tight leash from then on.

    When I saw them confronting him like that, I literally thought to myself "damn, kids these days are so wired to their electronic devices that he just broke the number one playground rule of snitching, and he had no idea this was coming to him. He's in the 4th frickin grade and this is his FIRST time dealing with a "tattletales get nailed" scenario."

    Same deal with the more Chad kids. When they got in trouble for trying to strong arm him into silence, they literally confessed they've never done anything like that, but they were just so pissed that they lost the opportunity to play dodgeball.

    It's fascinating. It's like watching an office worker tapping deep into his caveman roots to try and woo the hot secretary. Deep down inside, no matter how electronic and indoors these kids get, the kid instincts still stay with them, even if they've never had to use them before.

    your two posts on dodgeball are worthy for the ages. fundamentally, people are people, across time and distance.
    smartphones only distracted us, but inside we're still flesh, bones, blood, and spirit.
