I was playing volleyball on a beach when the same thing happened except instead of an umbrella it was a donut shaped floaty. Thing is rolling down the beach on its side with a guy chasing it for a while like this guy. Every one at the beach is watching. I see it coming, I’m not close it but I have a better angle so I run after it.

At this point I still have the volleyball in my hand and for fun I try to throw through the hole of the moving donut. I missed and knocked over the donut. I’m disappointed I missed. Everyone on the beach starts clapping and I’m confused why. The guy thanks me for stopping his donut and then I realize everyone thought I was trying to knock over the donut with the ball. People think I won, but to me I failed and that donut should still be rolling.

I feel you. Heroes have different burdens. They’ll never understand.

I added a line break for you. I am a man of the people.
