In high school we had one of those Powderpuff football games... you know, where girls order cool shirts to match like a team and essentially play touch football?
Yeah, well as it happened, we ordered these really cool shirts for the game, but when they came in, they were creepy. They were not at all what we had agreed on & I had paid for... I mean the girl's eyes were solid white and it was just... ugh.
I have to admit here, I'm one of those people who cannot just leave something alone... If it doesn't work, I want to fix it. If it is Ugly as sin, I want to transform it into something beautiful!
That being said, a little forethought goes a long way.
I got home, the day we got our shirts, and went after mine with a rainbow of permanent markers... By the time I was through, My name was polka dotted alternating pink and green on the back & the girl on the front had gorgeous flecked green eyes and instead of purple hair, it was brown...
Yup, needless to say, my fellow "team" mates did not approve.
Not to say it looked bad, but in hindsight, a little forewarning would have been nice, so they could decorate theirs as well...
I had genuinely not even considered that. I just didn't want to have to wear something so God awful! Honest!
Anyhoo, we kicked ass in that game!
There was a girl nobody could catch & I asked them to put me in...
I got her every time & she got pissed! I'm pretty sure that ended with her getting so mad, she punched me in the face and I beat the snot out of her, resulting in us getting kicked out of the game... So worth it!!!
*Moral of the story: Don't be short sighted like my 16 year old self... Try to think of how your actions are going to affect those around you, or you just might end up with a bunch of ticked off teenaged girls gunning for you too!
-happy trails!
