When I was little I used to jump off of stairs to just skip a bunch because I could be bothered. Now if I go down the stairs and I step off the last one a little wrong My whole day is ruined.

Sometimes I jump a little off the last step and hope I can ruin my day in exciting new ways (strangely and not because of the internet at all, but because of beans lately for the most part)

Finally, I can combine my love of women with my love of beyblades.

You know there is this semicompetitive fighting dance sport that's all the new hotness

This was absolutely not a girls only thing when I grew up. Most kids did it, it was only the few overweight and with bad coordination ones who didn't.

My partner was in the water yesterday and started spinning around saying "I am kabob". She has apparently not lost this impulse.

Ok, no reason to call me out specifically. I tried it, okay!? I landed on my face and broke a tooth. I still have trouble being upside down without thinking about that day.

A lot of this is just growing and aging. Child bodies are great at flipping and spinning. Adult bodies less so. Older adult bodies break in ways that don't quite heal all the way.

Not just the flexibility, people underestimate the forces an adult body generates by spinning that mass at those distances. A kid couldn't break his own bones, but I could easily break a kid's bones.

The patriarchy is allergic to whimsy

I'm also allergic to patriarchy

I don't know about the rest of the boob havers around here but I quit doing cartwheels the first time my tits hit me hard in the chin doing a cartwheel. Safety consciousness takes some of the whimsy out of it.

Lady, you have to calm your tits.
