Title relevant? If yes, does "Spirit" mean "Ghost"? Or is the term "Sprirt" used in the usual sense that one associates with this idiom? | ||

Was the pain literal or figurative? Did it cause pain to all of them? to some of them? to someone else? Was it amusing and appropriate for a given location? under given circumstances? in a specific time frame? Would it seem amusing and appropriate to someone who was not part of the group? a real-time observer? a reader of the account? Did they expect it to happen? Did it happen as a result of an accident? | ||

So what's left here?nothing really, I just hadn't gotten around to posting the spoiler yet You got sunburned which, while painful for you still seemed appropriate given that your team's name is "Team Red" - and you were wearing something that displayed the name, right?well, no. SPOILER Some friends of mine hosted what they called the Athens (Georgia) Olympics at their house a couple months ago. There were 25 friends gathered and we were assigned a team color ahead of time, and all wore that color to the games. We competed all day in such events as beach ball volleyball, badminton, water balloon toss, three legged race, dodgeball, limbo, horseshoes, tug of war, etc. Outside all day, eventually I got quite a nice sunburn. It hurt like hell, but me and the rest of team red were amused by the fact that even my skin was in team red spirit! |
