    Ice skating.

    I have all the coordination in the world...Until you get me on ice skates. Then I flail around like an idiot.

    Tennis. When I took it in college, instead of hitting backhand, I would switch my racket to my other hand. Coach was like, "I've never seen anybody do that before...," but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a compliment...

    Dancing!

    I look like the retard that just stubbed her toe on the dance floor...

    But half of my cardio workouts are from dancing.

    I know you mean nothing by it, but I can't not say anything. Please don't use the r word. It is very derogatory and offensive.
    Wah freaking wah.

    No. It's a word that needs to be taken out of our lexicon. As a teacher, I have many special ed teacher friends who could tell you that many mildly impaired kids, who lack many of the tools to deal emotionally with name-calling, are really damaged by language like this. So become an adult and have some compassion.

    For me it's singing as well. I love it, but I sound like crap.

    Yep. Definitely golf.

    Any sport. I wish I was the athletic type, but from my earliest memory, I was always picked last. Sigh. Is it too early for rum?

    Yup. Sure do. For instance, I lament the fact that the average person's vocabulary is so stunted and limited that they have to resort to the word "retard" to describe when something is amiss.

    Yes, excuse me for having sense and compassion. Excuse me for sticking up for a group of amazing people who might not always be able to do so themselves. It is unfortunate that there are people like you out there that see it as no big deal. People out there that don't seem to give a damn about how you or your language might affect others. In the end, by using the word, you are the one that will be left looking like a fool. We all have a soapbox and I choose to stand on mine from time to time.

    I paint. My pictures are pitiful; they really suck. They never translate to canvas the way they are in my head. It's kind of sad that I like painting so much, because I'm actually decent at pen and ink.

    What's even sadder is that I've actually sold some of this "art" on Ebay (admittedly, for prices under $25...I sometimes wonder what's happened to them).

    Yeah, mostly about how it's soooooo unfair that people ask them to not randomly insult people. "YOU WANT ME TO BE PC? THAT'S TOO MUCH WORK AND I'M TOO LAZY TO DO IT WHAAAAA!"

    That's what I see people crying about. My hearts just weeps for the intolerable endurance it must be to think about what you are saying. My goodness, however do you handle the strain?

    Bowling, man. I'm happy to hit 80. Even after going through a course in my gym class, I still suck.

    There's a difference between crying about doing a hundred burpees and defending a group of people against derogatory insults. Don't be a bully. Be a positive person for change, know you are better than that and don't need to use that language.

    As for me, I love to exercise, and I'm bad at all of it. Keep on keepin on though.

    I love dancing! Always have, but totally suck at it. When I was a kid I liked performing- singing, dancing and stuff- but as a grown-up I hate it. Maybe it's three years studying next to the drama faculty at uni that made me despise the la-de-dah performing types :(
