they said, “be there or be square”
he took it as a challenge.Even in high school, Calvin was determined to make Calvinball a thing.

Lol this is awesome
Das Runde muss ins Eckige.
Then you look at hockey. A bunch of belligerent hosers, skating around on ice with metal blades on their feet. All while trying to hit something that looks like industrial waste with a stick. Oh and you get to punch the other people when you feel like it.
What was the prompt, even?”
1990s photojournalisc footage of a weird sport with a square ball and long thin sticks
My other favourite from the same batch:
That is bizarre, yeah. Loving that neither actually has a square ball.
Yeah, usually I can come up with some creative context , but that one has me stumped.
Not even the penalty box could stop this beast.
Wow I’ve never felt so redundant as an artist
Four square?
Don’t just dream about getting on base, become the base. Extra balls are included…
I’d… try that sport, whatever that is lol
Pong!
Just like reddit, a thread full of puns/one liners indistinguishable from karma farming bots.
Does anyone know what this sport is? What’s the context here? I’m genuinely curious.
This is an AI generated image. There is (almost certainly) no such sport.
Its call Dümkhaant, an old German sport where each competitor is encased in a cube of plaster with only their head, legs and less dominant hand poking out, the aim of the game is to get your ball, which is hovering in place with the use of telekinesis and a long stick made out of a specialised wood from a specific region of northern Germany, into the opposition’s net which is situated upon a 5 ft, 56° incline of loose gravel.
The ball must never touch the ground, if your ball does touch the ground, you must take 13 steps back and to the left., you are allowed to cause a situation where your opponents ball can be dislodged, but you may never touch their ball, if you touch their ball, you must stand where you are for 30 seconds.
The game is resolved when a 2/3 result happens, in the event of a tie, each player must remove one sock and swap it with the others and first goal wins.
as a german, its actually spelled Dünkhand,
and the net is actually 1.5 meters.also, its currently in discussion to allow sticks made out of alluminum.
Drünkhand is only used in the lower peninsula.
My bad, the copy of the rule book I have is water damaged.
They will have to repeal the 1993 ruling that strictly prohibits the use of alloys, as per Chancellor Strattenbergs decision any use of an alloy will result in a permanent dismembering from the league.
It’s AI generated nonsense, and therefore not much deep conversation can be had about it.
