Disrespected by other athletes at my school. What do I do?

Your little school shooting reference is pathetic.

I was at an athlete awards ceremony recently when I mentioned that I was on the T&F and XC team, and everyone immediately burst into laughter pointing out how running isn't a real sport. They then asked if I was good at any actual sports like football, basketball, baseball, etc., to which I admitted I wasn't. They then asked me to flex my arms and erupted into another round of uproarious laughter at my diminutive physique while making the pinching hand (🤏) gesture and joking that the math club was in the room next door.

0/10. I'll bite though. First, after graduation you probably will never see these people again. Second, get a great job and/or have money than your body composition won't matter. Top shelf females will be within reach, just don't be a Fat Fat Fatty and have at least a decent personality. Finally, chances are those kids in the math club will have a more successful life than anyone at the sports banquet.

If you don't run in college learn to throw a disc and join an intramural ultimate frisbee team. You'll be a total badass.

What is the reference? Is there a shooting in the song/video? TBH I can't be bothered to watch the whole thing so I just scrolled through and saw no guns.

The whole song is about a school shooting.

Hahaha probably not. Ultimate is not just jogging hippies anymore; real athletes actually play (at least at the college level).

The same lack of skills that prevents OP from playing "real" sports (throwing, catching, coordination, agility, acceleration, jumping, etc) will apply to ultimate, too.

You need to be quick witted. You should have made fun of their respective inadequacies in a way that made them feel more insecure than you do right now.

Like..? What should I have said, specifically?

That is impossible to answer. You need to read a lot, immerse yourself in a variety of social situations, and then humor will come naturally.

It can't be forced.

Devastating ridicule comes from a reservoir of studied human behavior and a broad-based foundation in literarure or plays.

I hope the OP is better at running than he is at trolling.
