No, but it does cause mental pain if listened to often enough.

Wow, I thought you were being sarcastic. You have a point, though... just, songs from children's programmes being repeated incessantly is too excessive, even downright Orwellian. |

The song is only like 30 seconds long, and they only play it three times. And it doesnt cause lasting physical pain. Just my 2 cents, but it sure does beat detention. |

At my school there are teachers that bring around trash cans, though. (Not a stupid thing that MY SCHOOL did, but close enough.) |

I dunno what 'Orwellian' means, but I thus agree! In other news, how did bwave know the song is only 30 seconds long. |

This makes more sense. I mean, who are you being embarrassed in front of? The staff? I don't think they're laughing when they have to listen to it three times a day as well. |

My school wasn't really a school, I don't think anyways. I think it was more of an insane asylum. But I digress. In my high school, back when I wasn't in this freakin' college anyways, they actually chained the toilet paper to the stall walls. Chained, with locks. Strange, I know. And in the girls bathrooms, I've heard, that they put smoke alarms up on the walls. And even put little cages around those to keep the girls from ripping them off the walls. They installed the smoke alarms after well, for my time there, a few short years of having to air out the girls bathrooms from all the cigarette smoke. You could smell them all over the school, especially on that wing of the school. Heh, heh, something else kind of funny. We had a little Kroger store, with snacks, notebooks, etc, put into our school. You could work at it for a class and get credit. But you had to go to acouple of business classes first, I think. Well, anyways, they told us to never go to the store during the school day. Which was strange because there would always be some students waiting in there to sell crap. And the always told us to wait until school was out for the day to go in and buy whatever. Well, right after the final bell rang, the store would close in about, oh, five minutes or so. I was one of the lucky kids that got a teacher that let us go to the Kroger store when we wanted to. Often, me and my classmates would go in, raid the place, come back to class, and have a little party for reason what so ever. And the teachers never said a thing. Yeah, my school was nutzo. But man, those where good times. I miss the old high school. And all the nutzo students that I had to put up with. |

It's actually the smart thing to do. They caught the guy they were looking for. It just means the idea worked. Yeah, except that they risked someone crapping their pants in an emergency. Anything that can easily result in soiled pants is not a good idea. Real Raamis wrote: I dunno what 'Orwellian' means, but I thus agree!
Do yourself a favor and read 1984 sometime. *listens to everybody groan* Be warned that it has a small but significant amount of mature content, though. *watches as everybody rushes to buy 1984* - Kef |

I got a story! The school was having a fire drill in the middle of winter. We went out into the parking lot, and they forgot to call us back in, so almost the entire school was standing out there, in regular clothes, in 17 degree weather for about 15 minutes. Then, when the people were called back in, we found that the teachers locked themselves out. Another 5 minutes getting someone to open the door from the inside to let us all in. Oh, and the lunch monitors are freaking idiots. They gave me detention for muttering the lyrics of "We Will Rock You" during recess. Another time, I was sitting out by a game of Knockout, because I lost the round. Anyway, I had my lunch bag with me, and the ball rolled past me. The kid who had possession of the ball jumped over me, onto my lunch, then the lunch monitor yelled at me for getting in the way of the ball. |

My school put in an elevater (I think that's how you spell it...) for students in wheelchairs because they wouldn't be able to go down the stairs, and that's really considerate. The thing is, there has NEVER been a kid who uses a wheelchair in the school EVER.  Nice. It has NEVER been used... ever. You also need a key to use it, which only teachers have. The teachers rarely leave their classroom, and leave the floor even less. It takes less time to just walk up the dang stairs than unlock the elevater, and use it. Blunderful planning on the school's part.Lots of schools do that. It is required for the school to provide it for handicapped people. Also, people are often temporarily in wheelchairs due to sports accidents, car accidents, and plenty of other things. I have a key to my schools elevator, and I occasionally make copies to sell to freshmen (Real working copies). Also, whether or not you know it, I guarantee it is used everyday when you arent around. Just ask your janitors and teachers. Okay, the disability act makes sense, but keys for an elevater? It doesn't make sense, because the student wouldn't have a key, and I'm pretty sure the teachers don't carry the keys with them. |

As a lock enthusiast, I have to give this one my ultra high rated super mega kamehameha FACEPALM! *Ahem* They give the key to the handicapped kids. They dont just expect a handicapped guy to pick the lock (Unless if I was handicapped.) Also, it is very common for teachers to have said keys. |

NO DOUBLE POSTS ID's save time and hassle. Then stop slacking and being late. I don't even have desks we can put our stuff in, we just set it all in one big huge messy pile on the floor. |

That video was horribly staged. Sure, you could stuff a lot of things in your panys, but you cant walk around like that. The kid definitely couldnt bend his knee with the shotgun in his pants. And dizzy, they werent in his pockets, they were in his pants. |

My school did something not stupid! They updated the school's wireless network, and they not only removed the cumbersome login sequence, but they also extended the network to the engineering building! Now the technical students can have the same blessings as the technologically inept psyc and english majors

Has your school ever done anything this stupid?They haven't done anything that stupid at my school, but have definitely come close. My math teacher, in a couple words, is an over reactive jerk. He made a rule: One kid acts up, everyone gets detention. And he wasn't bluffing. One kid barely whispers, we all end up staying after school for an hour, and have to deal with our parents as we turn the detention papers over to them because one kid ruined it for us. It's ridiculous. Edit by furrykef: Watch your language... |
