Battle: Nate vs. Alysa

What does our apartment do Tuesday nights? Well, here's a little snapshot into the lives of 113:
Nate shows up with his cute little knock and comes in wearing his White Elephant otter shirt. We somehow related this to attending ghetto high schools (don't ask for that connection, I didn't even really follow it). Alysa then sallies forth with a report on her high school varsity swim team, and suddenly this invoked a battle to the death, over, (and no, I'm not joking), why don't black people like to swim. Now, remember, this is a debate between two white people about black people.

Nate: Black people don't swim because they weren't made for it.
Alysa: Black people don't swim because they were culturally repressed.
Nate: Black people have a higher bone density, and heavier muscles, so they sink more in the pool.
Alysa: Black people weren't allowed in white people's pools for a really long time.
Nate: Didn't you see the black guy in Michael Phelp's relay in the Olympics that almost cost them the victory? It's because he was so slow.
Alysa: But, in spite of his "bone density", there is a black guy on the US Olympic swim team.
Nate: He was on there. But, he is still?

[Nate and Alysa watch the relay in question and both celebrate the American's win and forget about the argument]

[Groaning, yelling, and celebrating all come to pass]

Thank goodness for Youtube for helping us relive the past.

***You don't know how many Olympic videos we watch in our apartment***

Oh wait. They are arguing again. (Apparently the Olympics can't even settle this one.)

Nate: Well, now that you have done the research, you can clearly see that it is all about bone density.
Alysa: Did you not listen to all the stuff I just read!!!
Nate: Okay, it's 99% bone density and 1% culture.
Alysa: No it's NOT! Listen to this "Swimming never became a part of African American recreational culture"
Nate: I'm talking about swimming in general.
Alysa: Well, I'm talking about swimming as a sport.
Nate: Ha Ha. I win.
Alysa: No you don't!
Nate: Yes I do.

[This is never going to get solved]

121 Days until the Olympics.
Yes, we are excited.
