    Remember making fake skin by covering your hand with Elmer's glue in art class and then peeling it off?

    Grade school shenanigans.

    Anyone remember turning off the lights on a kid/kids taking a shit as you walked out of the bathroom?

    Or getting up on a toilet seat next to them and embarrassing them by looking down?

    Tossing wet toilet paper at the mirrors or over into a stall with a kid pooping....

    rofl:rofl:

    Original with factory replacement parts.
    In jr high we had an ohio history teacher. He was as old as ohio's history. Movies were at least once a week. During the movie we would pull the center out of our bic pens and yank out a sheet of note book paper and for 40 minutes spitwads fired from the bic pens would "ping" the big tin ohio seal at the front of the class. I mean as fast as you could rip, chew, stuff the pen and fire. Ping, ping, ping, ping.....for 40 minutes.
    At the end of the movie the teacher would walk up and scrape the accumulation off with his hand and it would "splat" to the old wood floor.
    Hilarious and groos at the same time.

    that's awesome. i totally forgot about spitballing. we used take apart pens and use them as weapons, IIRC, you could launch the ink tube/tip as a missile with the spring.

    you also got my mind working about "movie" time or "film strip" time when they would get the projector out. shenanigans in the dark b/c the teacher couldn't see anything. kids giving charlie horses across the aisle in the dark. :rofl:

    Yeah.
    Coaches usually taught something like history, and Monday was hangover movie day. But they usually didn't tolerate shenanigans, especially with a hangover.

    I do recall that the ceiling in geography class had a large number of pencils stuck in it.

    Work much better than the hands free sensor faucets. Especially for working purposes when you have greasy or really dirty hands.

    My summer school math teacher in junior year HS was smoking hot and bought us beer for all of our parties. She never returned after that one summer. But hey, that was good enough.
