Things that piss me off about swimming:
1. When girls sit out half the workout and then brag about being at the varsity practice to others on JV
2. When there are girls that sit out half the workout and ARE STILL ON VARSITY WTF
3. When we have a choice to do 100 either back or free and the first person chooses back but still goes in front of all the freestylers
4. When girls won't shut up and make the coach mad at everyone
5. When girls skip practice to hang out with their boyfriends (don't be a weak bitch)
6. When girls skip practice for stupid reasons and still get to swim 4 events
7. When people assume they are a better swimmer than you because they practice in front of you in the lane or in a higher lane (my times still beat yours)
8. When people try to go fast on the recovery parts of sets because they want to assert their dominance over the lane (have fun not being able to actually do the sprinting parts of the workout)
9. When people hit you with paddles or fins because they don't understand the concept of CIRCLE swimming
10. When people don't listen to/talk over the explanation of the set and then ask the coach to reexplain it to them afterward
11. When the entire third lane skips the last few hundreds of a long set so that they won't be swimming after everyone who actually did the whole thing because they can't make intervals (FINISH THE WORKOUT)
12. When girls skip a week of practice and then complain that they aren't swimming the events they wanted
13. When people who are very obviously slower than you try to go in front of you
14. When someone slower goes in front of you and then makes you late for EVERY SINGLE INTERVAL in a very long, very fast paced set because they made you late for the first two and it becomes impossible to catch up
15. When people who are really fast stay behind you and touch your feet but refuse to move up
16. WHEN PEOPLE DO KICK SETS LIKE THEY'RE TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM SATAN AND SPLASH LIKE THERE'S NO TOMORROW LIKE IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY
17. When coach makes us do the kick sets streamline and everyone jumps off the bottom instead of actually kicking
18. When people try to trick coach into thinking we're done with our set and its like DUDE WE ONLY HAVE 100 LEFT SUCK IT UP
19. When people don't just get out of the pool after practice and instead crowd it up and make it impossible to escape
20. When stupid freshmen won't stop bragging about their times to everyone and how long they've been swimming club
21. When people who are bad at pulling complain about it nonstop the entire pull set
22. When people don't get out of the way of the blocks when you're about to race and they literally almost make you late because there's so much goddamn traffic
23. When people ask to go in front of you during a warm up where it is obvious everyone is on everyone else's toes (suck it up princess)
24. When people BUTTERFLY INTO YOUR GODDAMN FACE
25. When school things and swim interfere and you are forced to chose one and it is always a lose-lose situation
26. When we have underwater music days but the music the lifeguard chooses is crap
27. When the pool is retardedly hot and the coach still makes you do long sprint sets (I've died of heat stroke many a time)
28. When swim fins leave huge gashes in your feet
29. When your coach makes you swim off events in really important meets (WHY)
30. Swimming.
probably to be continued. today's practice pissed me off for a lot of reasons.
