Sounds like a jock that figures that everyone should be into sports.

I detested mandatory PE in grade school, and I made dang sure that the courses I took afterwards had NOTHING to do with physical exertion.

Those who enjoy sports, good for you. Just leave me out of your pointless inane useless sweaty pastimes. I’ll be working on my projects, creating useful items, or having a cold adult beverage.

Oh, and it’s inTRAmural

Mountaineering club and rock hound club. Oh and golf club along with Latin club and chess club.

I might have been a jock at what I loved but a massive surfing mishap that resulted in a nasty compound fracture that overshadowed any High school glory on the grid iron. I like watching baseball tho’...

Nah, not-a-jock. I liked the outdoors, hiking, camping, shooting, spelunking, a bit of tennis, a bit of golf, surfing, swimming, weight lifting... stuff like that. Tragically (to my young mind), I had a nasty surfing accident which resulted in a serious compound fracture which really altered my “sports” interests all through High School. So I camped and fished etc...

The inventor of auto correct has died, may he restaurant in peace. Life is hard on the road with just an android. Fat-fingering replies sucks, actually. But today I am enjoying a keyboard then it’s back out on the road for next week too. I have learned to embrace the mistake. Especially on a site that gives no 2nd chances to make corrections.
