While Candace isn’t typically good at roller skating, she can skate adequately when focused.

Being on a derby team, having a derby name is just so funny and weird to me. Because majority of us only know each other by derby names. Hearing their "other" name is just so weird. Like TF you mean your name is Becky. You are clearly Cherry Bomb, not this Becky person you speak of.

Is it true that roller derby literally has the worst smelling gear on planet earth? /genq /silly

Yes and it specifically belongs to my old teammate from Royal City who didn't wash OR AIR OUT her gear for so long that she discovered mold growing on it, excitedly showed us all, and then WORE IT ANYWAY

[poopanddoof]

Dropping someone's legal name in roller derby feels like dead naming them. Like sorry... Richard?

true derby vibes is only learning the actual names of your league mates after half a year or something
