Could you take 19 year old you?

mentally I would kick 19 YOM's ass... my blocks would be textbook and offense would be devastating... problem is... my brain is sooooo much faster than my body now... that 19 YOM would have kicked me twice then knocked me cold... before my now much stronger arm finally responded to the message from the finely honed brain to make the block

I was 19 almost 4 years ago and the drop off between myself then and now is huge. I'm about 20lbs lighter, much much weaker, and slower it would be over very quick except that I would fight much dirtier at 23. So I see my 23 year old self begging for mercy crying on the ground then hitting 19yr old me with a rock as he walks away shaking his head in shame of what he has become.

I'm 50 and would wipe the floor with my 19 year old self. Although I haven't lifted for over a year I'm still way stronger, and with triathlon training I'm in better shape cardio-wise, than I was when I was 19...I'm about 50 pounds heavier (a good portion of it good weight). I'm also significantly more fearless than I was then...

I just turned 5O. Methinks that the younger me....err....mini me.... would choke me out. I'm about 35 pounds heavier now but I was a pretty good wrestler in High School and started lifting weights a bit in college and so I was healthier, quicker, stronger and in much better shape back then. But if 5O year old me got lucky enough to get in the first shot, it would be lights out.

19 Year old me wouldn't have a chance.

Two primary reasons...

First... the 19 Year old me would eithere be drunk or hungover...

And... the 19 Year old me didn't know he could take a punch.

Having said that... both the 34 year old me and the 19 year old me would have a couple beers and laugh at the 26 year old me and then kick his ass... that dude was a train wreck.

I'm a lover, not a fighter.

Thus, rather than fighting, myself and 19-year-old me would probably jerk each other off.

Hey, it's still me, so that's not gay - it's really not. Blowing each other, that might be gay, so we wouldn't do that.

Well.... it would save you from having to remove ribs to do it.

Well if I timed this right, say when 19 year old me was dealing with mono, slept 16 hours a day, had zip energy and weighed in at 145 (and 6'2) I'd probably do alright, but hell I'm giving the kid 45 years!

I think you should have said it like this...

The .... provides the reader with the "pause" you might express when speaking the sentence, as you know.

:p
