Well, it’s not actually impossible to kick yourself, but it’s hard to do it very well.
Think about it. You could take a pretty good swing and smack your ankle or your calf or your rear end. Okay, maybe someone especially flexible could manage to do some damage somehow. I don’t know.
What I do know is that when I hear someone say, “she’s kicking herself for that last play,” I know that what’s really happening is a waste of energy, figurative or not.
Since you can’t kick yourself why spend time trying?
