I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.

Release 3 greased pigs on campus, but first paint big numbers on them. 1. 2. 4.

I think the class before mine or the one before that sorta did this except there was a #3 pig since this is a well known gag, but he was well hidden in some storage area or part of the school that was being renovated.

I wasn't in on this but our class apparently had a number of people decide buying a shitload of crickets and releasing them all over the school before lunch was the thing to do. It was less annoying than you would think.

Also senior skip day was a thing but I couldn't do that because I had tutoring hours I was doing for the middle school as part of a scholarship program thing. Only seniors at school that day were the dozen or so that were doing that.

Our school had a senior skip day, except the high school was in on it and just told the seniors to take a day off. It took the thrill right out of it.

"Caught" saying that?

Our first day in high school, the vice principal/disciplinarian sat our entire class down in the auditorium, said that we were the worst class ever to go through the middle school, and that he would not allow us to be the worst one to go through the high school.

I can't imagine that we actually were. The worst thing that ever happened on a class level with us was that the senior class and the junior class started throwing eggs and flour at each other during homecoming halftime my senior year. And that was only reacted to so strongly because the 50-year reunion class was seated in between the junior and senior sections.

Now, at one point, the school decided to put temporary speed bumps in the school driveways. The really hard, rigid kind that it's impossible to go over without a jolt. Someone stole them all the next week, and dropped them off in the driveway of three school board members. But the guy who did that is actually on the school board now so it's not like it hurt him that much. And he was a year behind us, anyway.

Also, my dad claims that in his year all the auto shop students came together one morning to disassemble the principals car, carry it piece by piece to the roof of the gym, and (sort of) reassemble it there. They were short of time, so they didn't actually finish reassembling it up top, but it LOOKED like they did. Also, several small but important parts may have gone missing.

edit: during a normal school day.

Some people did this in my dad's day at University too, with an old Mini. The real trick was to reassemble it on the roof of a building that *doesn't have roof access* by jumping across the ~4 foot gap from the building next door.

My school was a lot less imaginative. Someone bought a large dildo for a female teacher (it was an all boys' school) plus marmite or chocolate spread on the toilet door handles, cling-wrapping various peoples' cars, etc. Nothing too interesting.

quote:

A federal jury in Seattle awarded $21.5 million in damages to an Illinois man who was injured by an automatic sliding-glass door on a cruise ship in 2011.

The verdict included $16.5 million in punitive damages. James Hausman's attorneys argued during a nine-day trial that dozens of other passengers have been injured by the doors on Holland America Line cruises because of problems with their sensors, The Seattle Times reported Tuesday

That's the key. The courts are attempting to, erm, encourage the cruise line to fix their known safety hazard.

You'd expect that much from a chinese escalator incident, though.

One time a man around the same age as this guy ran in front of me while I was riding my bike on the bike lane and our heads collided. That was surely way worse that this one. I had headaches for weeks.

At my school, the theater students were the only class really devoted to pranking. The senior class a few years ahead of me built a free-standing replica of the theater teacher's office on the theater stage. They moved all of her belongings in there, hooked up her telephone, wired the lights, and then sealed the thing shut. You could peek in through a small window to admire their work, and listen to the phone ring and ring.

My year, they built a miniature golf course on the stage, complete with sand trap and water feature. Unfortunately, no one told the janitors that tarps had been placed under everything to make clean up easy, and they spent a lot of unneeded time shoveling sand.

A nearby high school thought it would be hilarious to put goats on the roof of the high school. They wanted the goats to be safe, so they put leashes on them and tied them to the roof. Unfortunately, the goats were too close to the edge of the building, and by the time kids started showing up to school, there were dead goats hanging from the eaves. :(

Nah, mine happened, although not quite in the way I was led to believe. They hoisted it up onto the roof rather than disassembling it and reassembling it on the roof.

It's wacky enough that I don't think it happened. Then again, in my high school, a group of seniors were so successful at simultaneously detonating stink bombs that half the school's classrooms were unusable for about two days.

A well to do high school my friend attended had a theme-a-day homecoming week. The freshmen used facebook to organize their own theme, and had everyone dress up as the much poorer neighboring highschool. Guys wore ghetto clothes, and some girls put basketballs under their shirts to look pregnant.

Since the first unofficial theme went so well, they decided day two would be Crips vs. Bloods day. One kid wore black face.

Their homecoming dance was canceled. The End.
