This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You are not old enough to understand, me thinks.

I'd hope millennial would be old enough to understand shirts vs skins.

Age has nothing to do with how unlikely it is that a school gym class would have students take off their shirts to differentiate teams in a game.

When I was in school it was shirts vs skins. Two separate schools in two separate states. I’m 39.

At Christian academy we played horse though.

Okay, what the hell is horse?

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

You shoot, you miss, you get nothing. You shoot, you score, you get an H, followed by an O, then R, S, and E. Whoever gets to HORSE first wins.

This is so different from what I understand horse to be it's crazy. To play horse you would shoot a ball from a certain spot and if you made it, the other person would have to shoot from the same spot or they get a letter. If you miss the other player gets to pick a spot. And so on until someone gets HORSE and loses. Also played with skateboard tricks and called SKATE.

Can’t have too much fun at Pentecostal academy. :p

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That is the opposite of how HORSE is played.

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Yes it is. I played Christian academy horse. :p

Riiight! We used to play donkey, for some reason.

Great explanation, too
