Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for November 12, 2022

I have so been there.

Maybe half way there, half is also more than zero

Hang in there Miles, I couldn’t do chin-ups or pull-ups until I hit 40.

When “up” fails to meet “pull” in the middle.

Miles doesn’t wanna get too big.

I loved playing on those bars at recess. When I visited my old school recently I found they had been removed years ago. Too dangerous I guess.

Miles, don’t worry about it. In all my 76 years, NOBODY has ever asked me how many pull-ups I can do. Honest ta gawd, the dumb things people find to compete about. . .

He may pass math, but P.E., maybe not.

I couldn’t do any until I was 23, when suddenly out of nowhere I discovered that I could do 10 or 12 with minimal effort.

…‘cause I was a university student, couldn’t afford food, gas, or bus fare, and lost 50 pounds in two months.

I was there at the exact same time these two were, actually.``

At eleven I could do 3-5 pull-ups…. But only because my friends could do more and I wanted to beat them :)
