on sports

they are voluntary. last time i checked, it was never mandated that anyone had to play a sport or else. 

so like, why the fuck are people complaining about being busy/tired when they play a sport? they don’t have to do it.

it’s kind of like complaining about having homework in college or being busy at work. theoretically you could choose to not go to college or to not work … it would just make your life more difficult. also, jesus, at least you’re lucky enough to go to college or have a job. (btw i know that i’m totally guilty of complaining about this but right now i’m just having a perspective moment so, yeah)

also i’m currently editing an article that is talking about how hockey players “willingly endure” pain and how that makes them tough and therefore admirable. no, it makes you an idiot.
