I was on the track team, 3 band classes, football, swimming, and the pot smoking team (unsanctioned). Carried a switchblade. Could use nunchuks like a mofo. 10 years of martial arts under my belt at the time. I was the smallest person in my grade having skipped two. None of the jocks would lay a hand on me as I already kicked one of their assess and put a knife to his throat.
I succeeded at not being a contributing member of society in to my 30's so when they told me I'd be nothing but a failure, I lived up to that, I guess that's a win LOL.
