Back in the very early 70s, grade school, before monkeybars slides seesaws and swings were banned I was a very clumsy child who's mom shopped in the 'Husky' section . Certain kids (you would call them bullies now) would throw balls at people on the playground . So, one day I wanted to play on the monkey bars and was pushed off, ridiculed and berated . I was unharmed but I grabbed a clump of sod out of spite and flung it at a perpetrator . It wasn't a direct hit but he lost his grip, fell and broke his arm . I was nerd-hero from then on .
