I’m too old for this kind of shit
Posted on Friday, January 12, 2007It’ll be great fun, says Cursing Jack. You’ll enjoy it.
No, I reply. I won’t.
You will, he insists. Come out on Friday and give it a try anyway.
They’ll laugh at me, I object. They’ll laugh and point and turn away.
No, he soothes. Not in the slightest. They’re all the same as us.
Old fuckers? I ask.
Yes, he reassures me. All old fuckers.
All right so, I surrender.

Which is why I now seem to have a torn cruciate ligament, a displaced knee-cap, a ruptured vertebra, a dislocated shoulder, a broken nose and an incipient heart-attack.
Fuck indoor soccer. I’m too old for that shit.
Stumble it!
