Back in school, we would ask others if they were going to the gym. Then someone seemed to have their ego lifted by the question, we would say that we asked because it does, indeed, doesn’t look like so.
Jamming and smoking the reefer.
Chess - then I’d look athletic while doing it.
Nah dude I know I’m not athletic. And the sport is curling. It looks fun.
i don’t see this working unless you ask a specifically athletic man, or one of those people who can’t shut the fuck up about the gym… but for non athletic guys, like… we know. the answer is probably “none, which is the reason I’m not athletic to begin with”
Is it ragebaiting if you just call somebody “unathletic”? Or is that just insulting somebody? 😂
Depends.
If they’re actually athletic, it’s ragebaiting. If they’re clearly out of shape, it’s insulting.
But… I am clearly out of shape. Not the worst shape, mind you, but obviously not an athlete. Climbing for me, which I do enjoy, but haven’t really done since covid.
I mostly bike ride for exercise, but don’t think I’m an in shape looking cyclist or anything. It’s an bike, and while I do usually vary between weakest assist and sometimes none, I got nothing on even semiserious cyclists.
Yeah, this is just being a catty bitch, really.
If you could be as pretty as on any of your pictures, which one would you pic?
“What kind of clothes would you wear if you were, like, actually pretty?”
I’m not athletic. Not obese either but it’s just not the word to describe my appearance. So it would be a fair assessment and if I don’t sense any bad faith then to me it’s actually an interesting question to be asked. Some people are just a little tone deaf.
None. Sports are dumb.
No they’re not.
I like doing sports. Watching sports is the worst thing i can imagine.
Yep, I enjoy being involved in sports but watching them is a waste of time.
The only exception to this is the team I coach, for kids hockey…great to see the development of the players from know nothing to team play.
Tennis, but in the winter.
Nothing like the slop of a rain drenched tennis ball on pavement
Am man. Am not athletic (was never great at anything and a number of places in my body are now metal). Am not bothered at all by the question. My answer would probably be endurance running, though I did enjoy shot and disc.
I think the joke is that by asking that face to face, you are telling them that they are so fat / out of shape that they can’t do sports
But I am fat and out of shape.
What happens if they answer esports
“How to ragebait insecure [greek aphabet letter] man”
I’d probably do parkour again, conquer the urban jungle.
You are a real ξ male

No thanks, but thanks for the warning to not watch.
The youtube link alone was enough for that.
if unathletic people liked playing sports, they wouldn’t be unathletic.
You can like following something but not participating in it.
i meant playing them lol
I used to play open gym volleyball. The same guy would come every week and had been going for years. He was the most dogshit volleyball player I ever met. He played a lot and was extremely unathletic.
You also have to try to improve
He definitely tried. Some people just peak at an ant hill, others Mount Everest.
I mean, so he showed up and tried every day? Or did he do regular drills, research on how to improve and implement those suggestions, and do strength and conditioning on the side to improve overall athleticism?
Have you ever seen the movie Million Dollar Baby? There’s a guy who goes to the boxing gym that they describe as “100% heart, 0% talent.” That character epitomized the guy I’m talking about.
Why is the dude on the left almost always the example?
Have you never seen the typical NFL, NBA, or MLB fan?
Playing sports.
It said following before. Comment OP edited it (mentioned in their other comment)
Edit: Bunjee jumping.
I’m not happy with what this comment originally was. So I have changed it.
Ah, bungee jumping
I mean, if I were athletic I’d probably already be playing a sport. I think these two things in my case are intrinsically linked.
I was ranked in the top 15 butterflyers in the US between 1998 and 2000. I surf now.
