Alt: I won my school's Mastermind competition when I was 11
Amazingly, this did very little to earn me the respect of the bigger lads who'd spent the previous four years mocking me for being a swot who was shit at football.

To be fair to the bullies
You were a swot who was shit at football.

He seemed to prefer the showers afterwards to the actual games.

His "skiing" was excellent, I'd heard

I was genuinely confused by this
I couldn't understand why footballing prowess was valued over intellect. Probably because I was a swot who was shit at football.

Football is for cunts.

It was possible to be a swot AND good at football you know.
Rugby, however, made me cry. That was embarrassing.

It is a dreadful town
Full of skag-heads and illegitimate claims to inventing major sports.

I made people cry playing rugby.

I once attempted to pass a ball to another lad running alongside me
Sadly, I got the power a little wrong, and instead threw it straight over his head, straight into the face of the teacher. Oops.

Success!
The token rubbish kid in our class managed to throw a discus behind him but annoyingly he missed smashing the face off the PE teacher. That would probably have been the highlight of my entire school career.

During inter-tutor group rugby I tackled a kid and then stood up and grapped the ball off him as he was lying on the ground
because he didn't understand the rules of rugby he took this as a foul and punched me in the face. He got sent off, it was rather funny.
