Pro athletes make for the kind of perfect petri dish for arrested human development. They're basically living out their 13-year-old dreams for the rest of their lives—for better or for worse. This allows them to stay in that state of limitless wonder and possibility, but it also means that they do a bunch of 13-year-old shit, like nutmeg a kid repeatedly until he cries.

Shinji Kagawa, an attacking midfielder for Borussia Dortmund of the Bundesliga, was out on the pitch, playing around with some kid, and absolutely destroyed him with, like, a jillion nutmegs. Take a look:

Kagawa's comment amounts to—by way of Twitter's wrecked translation—"this frustration that people strongly [crying emoji][thumbs up emoji]." This is all true. Poor kid. Let's hope he trains extra hard to plot revenge.
