Today, I learned a valuable lesson: Make sure you learn to swim at a very young age, or else you might end up a in a swimming class with a bunch 3 and 4 year-olds, taught by your crush. FML

If they were making fun of you then that would be hilarious.

This isn't bad, you can make up for it by actually learning! One thing in common with your crush. Don't be embarrassed at least you got swimming lessons.

I know, right? Babies know how to swim. I can understand not swimming WELL, but how can you just not know how to swim? Isn't it kind of self-explanatory?

Babies know because they can. Has to do with the womb.

Yeah. Try sticking a baby in a tub of water. It'll swim right out. Idiot.

You just compared the paraplegic commentator to a baby. Nice.

Disregard comment 52. What I meant to say is that babies instinctively hold their breath underwater. =]

#64-- Babies have a reflex that allows them to swim or keep their heads above water for some amount of time. Look it up before you call people names. Like I said, I can understand not swimming WELL, but I can't understand not being able to swim at all. I never said a baby could swim out of a tub, so it was rude of you to call me an idiot. I obviously didn't mean being paraplegic=baby, that doesn't make sense. I never said that, so don't jump to conclusions. I meant that swimming, an activity which for able-bodied people usually requires a lot of leg movement can in fact be performed without using one's legs, showing that it's not a very complicated activity. Likewise, babies can also swim at a basic level (it's a reflex, but again, of course they don't swim well) so I wanted someone to explain how a cognizant person with more functioning limbs than necessary could be unable to or not know how to do what is pretty much a simple task. I ask a question and get called an idiot for no reason. You sound like nice people. ^_^

I thought she called me an idiot. I could've sworn I saw a documentary on babies being good swimmers...

#150-- What about asking a question and using facts to support my argument makes me a douche? No one has answered my question yet, by the way.

#64: According to my mother, that actually somewhat happened when I was a baby.

152-I actually wasn't talking about you...I was talking about 15. Just because he's a paraplegic and knows how to swim does NOT give him any rights to make fun of someone who can't swim.

Well, at least you're learning now and, bonus, there's eye candy teaching you. I'd say it's a win!

Damn that sucks, but there's plenty of other guys to crush on, but it's more important to learn how to swim -even if you don't want to for fun it could save your life in an emergency

Why do you use commas and question marks, but never periods? Doesn't really make sense why you would punctuate half a comment.

Swim class? I would think by a certain age you would be able to visually study how it's done and self teach. But I guess swim lessons are better than the sink or swim tactic I endured. :O

I got the sink or swim too... It was fine until middle school came along and it was mandatory to take swimming lessons. I decided to go in the one where all my friends were and needless to say we all failed because of me... Oopsies.
