I was always picked last too! Unless it was rounders, partly because I was quite good at it, and because all of us stuck together to beat the nasty PE people-and always managed to win.

I don't mind being picked last, I suck I'd pick me last. It was being stuck with the people I hate, the moronic, chavvy people who somehow cheated our entrance system
I don't think I've played rounders since Year 6. At my school we only do men's sports, for we are men etc. 
Rounders isn't a girly sport, is it?

Agreed. Except we have no entrance system.

I don't know. I thought it was, but I suck at sports so I may be totally wrong.
I used to care about sucking at sports...I don't anymore I don't think... I probably do though.

Yeah, so like I said, no thick skin?

Apparently not. I was never any good at hiding my contempt for people.

As well as shooting things, chugging things and the like.

We had to do swimming, then they filled our swimming pool in. That was a good day.
Our pool was outdoors! 
Fun though.

Neither was/am I. Didn't mean that it bothered me, being stuck with total morons. I put it to you, that you care about sport, but were subconsciously frustrated with being sidelined and ignored.

Mebbe. But then I enjoyed the times where I was on a team with my friends even if we were abysmal failures. This would point to my problem being linked to the dickheads on the other teams.

There was a swimming pool literally across the road from my school, but we didn't go once.
There used to be one at my primary school, but it was outside, dirty, leafy, and fecking freezing. Only ever went in it twice, in reception I think.

Ah, perhaps.
Thinking back, I suppose I actually quite enjoyed being with the dickheads. As I didn't - and don't - give a shit, I never did anything, which frustrated and annoyed them greatly.
Particularly rugby, which the head of sports kept trying to get me to join the school team for.

We had a swimming pool across from our primary school, and used to go every week-but looking at the place now, it must've been disgusting.
