And it’s not just clinic stuff. It’s the oversharing. The personal drama. People tell me things I didn’t ask to know while I’m literally trying to take a temperature.

And don’t even get me started on when I finally carve out 30 minutes for myself at my favorite coffee shop. I just want to have a moment to read and listen to my music and then a client sees me and decides to invite themselves over and sit with me. It’s really annoying.

A flyer’s the one who gets lifted in stunts. That was me in high school and college. I was small and flexible, so they tossed me up a lot. It was fun, and a little scary sometimes, but I loved it.

With cheerleading, did any of your schools discriminate?

No, I don’t think so? Why?

Hypothetical. You’re short so I’m assuming that’s why they made you a “flyer”. Let’s say a girl 4’ 11” 310 pounds (big as hell, as in built like a deep freezer with eyelashes — 3 bills easy) showed up to tryouts and wanted to be a flyer, would y’all’s coach let her on the squad to be a flyer or would they discriminate? For real question Lol.

Pardon the crash, but I recall back in the day girls were most likely chosen to a cheer or pom squad for three reasons: looks; talent; and do we have a uniform that she'll fit into. Our school used the same uniforms year upon year, no girl ever kept her uniform.

If our school had two tall girl unis but three talented tall girls, the two tall girls with the higher tryout scores were typically admitted to the squad. Purchasing a new uni for the third talented tall girl would've been too expensive, and her uni would've looked different/better than the other old unis.

In your example, I see it as unlikely a squad would've had a uni to fit a girl.of the size you describe.

I was under the impression they kept the uniforms. Then since that’s the case that they don’t, with a prayer, two cans of Crisco, and a running start, she might be able to slide into the uniform, but she’ll need spotters and a halftime break just to zip it up Lol

I can see CG’s cheerleading team now, they’d try to launch her like they do CG, but gravity would say, “Not today.” Girl would popped up two inches, and then drop like a bad idea. CG up top blinkin’ like, “That ain’t regulation.” Lmao
