[4] same as it ever was

Apr 30, 2009 22:26

I got kicked off my college swim team because they thought I was cheating.

I think I was, maybe. But I don't really know how to reconcile that with everything.

[ooc: cursed v much.]

oh fuck, would rather be in california, can't trust anybody, like a fish yeah, well shit, when did it get like this, we control the horizontal, fugitives, this is not the underground railroad, the blue pill not the red pill, guilt complex, cursed, awkward to the max

It's not cheating if you don't realize that you're doing it.

Except by then I'd kind of realized, Claire.

Well were you doing it intentionally? In order to win?

Yeah. But I mean-- it's not like I was taking performance enhancing drugs or anything. So is it cheating or not?

I don't know.

I don't think it's cheating. It's not like you can help it. It's something you're born with. Can you consider people who are naturally fast cheaters? No, because it's something that they're born with. You didn't do anything.

I don't know if I believe that for myself, but. Thanks, Claire. You always know the right thing to say, which is not really a talent I've ever had.

Years of practice.

Or just... sagely wisdom.

Can we go with sagely wisdom? Because you're younger than me, and the other option makes me sound like I fail at life.

Do I have to have a beard for this to happen? If there's no beard, then I'm in.
