Gym Volleyball

There is something fantastic about a rousing game of gym volleyball in B period. The expressions of the people who are good and watch listlessly as their team falls apart at the seams, the noodle arm flail attempts at the ball by tubby little children who couldn't throw a home run if their lives depended on it, the "I'm too good for gym" girls who dodge the volley and look at the person/wall behind them like it was their fault they didn't have extendo-arms, and who could forget the serves. They must be some of the most humiliating thing's I have seen in my lifetime since mandatory line dancing. The limp-wristed "thilly goothe" serve, the steroid shot, the spanker; it all leads to one outcome, and that's failure. No matter what team you're on and who else is with you, you have automatically been bumped and set by god himself for a nice big SPIKE of failure, a la god (even though that means he hit it three times, but he can do that cause he's a d-bag). Thanks to WHOEVER'S wonderful idea it was to make 3 years of gym and health manditory...well...everyone who goes to AHS has a good 80 minutes a day of pure,distilled, uncut, high-inducing failure. (have you never been on a failure high? I envy you then. It is simply a vortex of failure that seems to stop time, distort images, and give you the more-than-feint sensation of the release of your bowls. It can only be thrown out of wack when you 1. win 2. manly 3. fail so much the vortex collapses upon itself, thus making everyone around you fail on the same level as you at most, usually resulting in a 30% fail increase of everyone within the room or 6' radius if outside.) But anywho, losing my train of thought completely, I simply say that volleyball is the shining moment of every day in the hellhole that is everyday school. Now, all I need to do to make it perfect is land a spike right in the ex's face. Oh, wait, we have dodge ball all next week. This could hardly be a better opportunity. Now, I only need a way to confiscate the balls, fill them with lead, and gain the superpower to throw the equivalent of a bowling ball across a gym with accuracy within 6" of the target. Better hit the gym. And the smelting pot.
