Today a story I hadn't thought of in a long while came to me...

Two or three years ago, my sister and I were in a homeschoolers sports group - we'd get together and play some kind of sport with other people. I was never particularly amazing at any sport, and that holds till today. That day, we were playing kickball. The ball bounded towards me in the outfield and I missed it. A little squirt of a kid with eyeglasses and a ponytail shouted out from the opposite side of the field, "YOU MISSED THE BALL!!! YOU'RE STUPID!"

It would be silly to say I wasn't annoyed at the comment, but ok. Then, later, the ball went to my sister and she missed it as well. Same comment.

Then, he came up to the plate. He missed the ball. His comment? "I'M SO STUPID!"



At least he was fair.
