My school forced every student to take Technology for GCSE. But they would choose the type of Technology. I got stuck with Graphics, which I have always loathed, and wasn't any good at it. The teacher was good, but I was really pissed that I didn't have any choice in that matter.

oh and they came up either a stupid "poor if I" bs that made it possible for students to make up any assignment they didn't pass in any time of the year, how ever if they failed to turn in a certain amount of assignments they would fail the term regardless of what their actual grade was.

they had a very bad tendency to run out of food by fifth lunch and as a result any decent lunch they ever turned out would be long gone by the time i ever got to it.

oh and they changed the stair wells, we had four stair wells, and the middle of the year the decided to make 2 stairs "down only" and two "up only" it was a pain to have to relearn how to get to your next class instead of just using the closet set of stairs available.

This year, I think the procedures for school cafeterias and prison cafeterias got messed up. At least I hope so, because how else can you explain:
Not being allowed to talk.
Not being allowed to sit with people you want to sit at.
Not being able to (I kid you not)LOOK AROUND.
Not being able to get the gross food TWICE.
What? That is not on. I could understand these rules Classes, or exams. But Cafeterias? What are they trying to do, rehabilitate you?

Changed the entry requirements for the 6th form to 5 C's or above at GCSE to 10 C's, when my year got to year 11.

Dropped it back to 5 the year afterwards.

I got 9 C's or above.

My 10th grade English teacher (Who is sexist) gave me a zero for participation. This dropped my B grade down to a C. The school slut who was getting Fs for everything she did was also somehow getting a C. I explained to her in a calm voice that this was bull. I remember saying "So if I wasn't in the room the entire time I would be getting the same exact grade" She said maybe I should try harder. I complained to the school board and they said they would look into it. They didn't.

This kept me out of the Honor Society (My mom said that if I get in I could get a job. I was saving money for video games, that I only allow myself to play on weekends.)

Banned: my chemical romance, rise against, bullet for my valentine, guns and roses, and rage against the machine t-shirts because they "promoted violence"

Isn't that easy to remove?
Normally it is but our tech guy has installed some weird software that lets him know when the history has been wiped which leads him to recover the history.

ow i don't even play football, when i do/did, it was always recreational, but are you honestly saying volleyball is tougher than this?
Considering as both those guys wear a body protector that renders the impact of that almost nil: yes, volleyball is. Bumping into eachother is nothing compared to motions that attack small parts of the body, such as fingers, or ankles.

Actually, if you don't believe it, why don't you try it? Lay a hand on the side of your desk so that only two fingers are on it, and the other three are hanging freely. Now pull your hand up and strike your desk hard as you can in the exact same way. Please don't hold me responsible for any medical costs or injuries that occur. That is what a partial block against a good volleyball strike feels like, only the impact you've made will be much weaker.
Concussions.


I suppose if toughness is reduced to experiencing pain from impact that isn't really relevant, but it's also pretty clear the impact is not reduced to almost nil.

A year after I went up to secondary school they changed the uniform, meaning everyone had to buy the new one after already having bought the first one.

Later on they decided that the food being served was too unhealthy overall and made considerably less of the things that actually tasted good. That's when everyone started going to the shop down the road. Then they built a fence around the perimeter of the school field and one further in around the buildings that were locked during school hours, meaning it took some determination to get a decent non-salad lunch.

Needless to say, holes were dug and some rivets went missing. As long as you knew someone who was in some roundabout way involved in it you'd know where the loose bars were and the staff never found out.

first off that's a ball hitting your fingers, not a human being, and i've played volleyball quite a bit with people of all sizes and skills, hell i got my nose broke from a volleyball spike to the face, but in no way shape or form would i say it's worse than getting a pummeled hit in football. (and this is coming from someone who is normally a little guy, so in volleyball i got hammered on all the fucking time)

one of the fastest recorded hits from a volleyball strike was 88 mph, and that's not even average that was from a ridiculously powerful in shape man hitting it. so lets take that roughly 1-2 lb ball, and hit it at that speed, while taking a 200 lb man, and have him hit you going 10 mph while you are running towards him going roughly 13 mph (like that clip i showed, and that guy was probably more than 200, as most linebackers/defensive players are in the 210-250 range)

now i'm not going to sit here and work it out, but the energy/force from the football hit is much greater than the volleyball hit. I don't care to show any work for it nor do i care to sit here and argue it, it just seems like you are being ignorant of football like it's some sissy sport.

Note: I like volleyball alot and play it roughly once a month on average, nor is it a sissy sport by any means.

Okey this on the other side is a dick move, also illegal. You did report them right? o_o
Nah we didn't. I never really thought about the legalities of it all just how annoying it was that they wanted control of my own personal computer. Maybe I should get the students that are still there to report them or something. Anyway, their problem now, not mine.

When they were renaming the school, they totally rejected my suggestion that we rechristen the bloody place "Darth Vader High". Tossers.

New Hampshire law now restricts us to only have things that are "low in sugar".

No clarification on how "low" is "low". Just make sure it's low on sugar, or else!

(I've been selling fucking Snapple for four days out of my bag and I'm making a killing, how sad is that?)

It's because it doesn't roll off the tongue well enough. You need Darth Vader Academy.

It's perfect!

Is it a dick move to confiscate a 10 year old boy pc magazine with pictures of topless women? because that's the only thing I think of, my last year of high school was hectic and I was about to repeat it again if some teacher gave away the answers for some tests for me, so it quite the contrary.

I do recall that when I was in college, I was banned from entering classes because I had long hair. I could've easily cutted but I my theater director especifically told me not to since my character needed to have long hair. So I was banned from entering, yet some guys with longer hair than mine could enter the class, strange...

My high school had one lunch hour (it was really 45 mins- but who's counting?) and it was always super packed. Granted you could go off campus and get food, but the places around the school were packed at lunch, and you had to have a car to get food somewhere else, and that was the fastest. So, they did have food stands to get food from, and there was only three of them outside and they had long lines. So instead of adding another one so everyone could get food and not eat in a hurry, the school took one away and gave the football team new uniforms.

One year a new high school was created and me and 20 other students in my neighborhood were grandfathered over to stay at our current school and they said they'd keep the buses coming and getting us. LIES!! A week before school started they sent out a letter saying they were canceling our bus route and stated no reason for that. So all of us had to either walk, get a job to get a car, or bike it to school, and all of us relied on the bus. Granted we were about 4 miles away, but that was not a fun year, and a lot of the time I walked to school since I couldn't get a job, and didn't own a bike since my last one got stolen. The only good thing that came out was I got to know someone else on my route really well when we were walking to school.

I got into a fight with this one chick that was giving me a hard time for about a month and we ended up fighting (she started it and not me) and I ended up getting ISS for defending myself while the chick got a slap on the wrist. The teacher that caught us claimed that I started it since she 'would never do anything like this and was well liked', or something like that, and so I was suspended for a three days for....something.

Another time in junior high I was suspended from the bus for a week for something I didn't do, something was going on in the back of the bus and I was in the front reading and listening to music. Next thing I know I'm called to the Assistant Principals office and was told I was getting suspended, and any attempts to defend myself was met with 'that's not what other students have said'- the ones that were doing it. After a few days, I get called back in for a 'counseling session' and my dad gets called in. I sit outside the office while my dad is yelling at her, most terrifying 5 mins of my life, and all I got was a 'well we don't know how to contact the bus driver so you're just gonna have to find a way to get home for the rest of the week'. No apology, no calling the kids that got me into trouble in, nothing. I was one pissed off 8th grader.

I was pulled from school and put on medical absence.
They didnt change it in the system so I got charged with truancy...
I still had to go to court and pay for the court costs even though it wasnt my fault.

Not to mention the court nearly called Child Services because they though my parents were bad.
THANK GOD we had the paperwork from the school about my medical leave.

After that I dropped out and got my Diploma elsewhere. I was not dealing with that shit school system again.
