My old job made a rule that you had to raise your hand and wait to be called on if you had to go to the bathroom. Like we were children in school. There was a guy in his 60s that had only been there for about a month. He raised his hand and after 5 minutes no one called on him. It was a factory. He proceeded to shit right there in the floor in front of his machine just to protest. They tried to reprimand him but he went right to the office and told owner of the company that if he kept treating his employees like children then they will start behaving like children... MY FUCKING HERO
I remember when my school tried to ban girls from wearing those those jean shorts or daisy dukes during the spring/summer time so in return us guys made our own and wore them the everyday the following week. They lifted that rule afterwards.
My senior year of high school, my principal enacted a “tardy lockdown.” At the bell, teachers had to lock their doors and kids had to go to the auditorium if they were late. One day, the bell rang while I was outside of my classroom, teachers locking eyes with me, and locking the door in my face. I had to walk to the other side of the very large school to the auditorium, get lectured with 50 other students, wait in line for a pass, and instead of being a few seconds late for class, I was over 20 minutes late.
My school does “tardy sweeps” Usually around two per year. Same thing, all doors would be locked and you had to go to the lecture hall where they would give everyone ISS. (in school suspension) I’m just glad I haven’t been caught in one
Had a math teacher in HS that told us we couldn’t use the bathroom during her class as it was a, “waste of her time” so I would frequently use the restroom before the bell rang for class to start as I wouldn’t have the opportunity for over an hour after. Multiple times I came back right as the bell rang and even though my backpack was in her classroom and I had asked her to go before her lesson started which she replied was fine she still would make me go get a tardy slip which required me to walk across the school same issue. Made me at least 10 min late when I could have been there right as the bell rang. Very frustrating
We had an anonymous bully reporting system implemented. The bullies started reporting their victims because they found out a report was an automatic three day suspension. My principal wasn't very smart...she ended up a janitor in a nearby school after getting fired/pushed out by the school board that same year. She had a lot of other issues (like bad teachers and poor online class liaisoning) so they decided it was time for her to get replaced.
Going to be honest. This rule had very good intentions especially since victims are very scared of standing up for themselves in fear of making things worse but of course someone had to use this against them like an asshole
@@nubgaming1013 maybe students could counter that by referring to the teacher (or the principal) as "glorious leader". two possible scenarios: either the teacher think it through, realizes the connection and changes his/her ways, or continues and proves their point
@@GothicSoldier9000 students are retarded and evil a lot of times, school shootings, knives, and weed or worse. Don't speak about solutions professors come up with while dealing with stuff.
At my school a lot of students would show up late in the morning So to combat this they set up a system where you go to the office and they charge you 5 dollars for anyone that was late and the teachers as soon as the bell rang they locked the doors and any kid that was 1 minute late had to pay the fine and if they didn’t they would charge it to the parents account. More than half of the school had at least 300-1000 dollars they owed most students didn’t tell their parents about this because they didn’t want there parents to know that they were late But some kids would pay off the late fee but couldn’t afford breakfast or lunch so most kids would go hungry for the whole day Parents later found out and sued the school and district
Well shit, because of the stoneman douglass shooting, we students who go to school in what I think amounts up to the entire broward county have to wear IDs now in schoo grounds. There's a rule similar to your school in which if any student loses their ID, they have to "pay" 5 dollers to get a new one. Reason why I put pay in quotation marks is because we are reqiured to wear IDs, it's not exactly "paying" because that would imply that we are wilfully buying something. But it's not buying if we have to give money for something that we have no choice in wearing. If parents were able to sue your school and district, I wonder if our parents can do the same with this stupid ID rule.
My school made many rules that were direct results of me and my friend group, including not being allowed to sing "99 bottles of beer on the wall" in school, they did away with the rule when we created the much more obnoxious and long "99 bottles of child appropriate beverage on the wall".
4:00 As a veteran, I knew this would go wrong the moment it came out of his mouth. There are literally people in this world who wouldn't survive unless someone told them to do something to the letter of the word and most of them decided to join the military.
This is EXACTLY why I stick to myself and call my own shots in my life.I trust NO ONES judgement better then my own after really really getting to understand how shallow most peoples depth of thinking is.How some people let others with zero competence dictate their lives is beyond me.
Now to be fair... a lot of us are used to our supervision WANTING us to do exactly what they told us to do. Like at one point our production (Aircraft maintenance here) wanted us to compile a list of everything we could conceivably need if ANY thing broke on an aircraft. The reason being that they wanted to make a mobile fly away kit for when we weren't at home station with every part, tool, or ground equipment we'd need. Now naturally doing this to a T was ludicrous, but being in the military, we shrugged, and just made a list that might as well have said, "A flight line and an age yard." We need 4 engines in case they go bad, a truck with a trailer hitch for this inspection, aircraft stands, test stands that weigh upwards of 2 tons, a genie lift, you name it. Surprised no one put airplane on their list to be a smart ass.
After 334 likes & not a single comment, i’m gonna say that whoever that person is should meet me, i can turn it into an hour long presentation because my entire brain is filled with that shit of “what can i possibly do to break a rule that doesn’t exist for the sake of comedy”
My High school implimented a tardy rule where once the last bell rang, if you came in late you were given a red slip to take down to the office and sign a paper about being late to class. It was basically to shame kids for being late. As you can imagine, most kids just ditched if they knew they were late. Attendance plummeted, as did grades and the rule mysteriously vanished after only a few months of being in effect.
Mattackai Gaming surprised it took them a few months to uplift it, if grades go down the school gets jack shit, so they should have gotten rid of that right quick.
Then you notify the parents no? If it's not working you suspend for some time and if that doesn't work you kick out... In my school you had the right to be late 3 times per semester, if you were more often late than that you would get an extra homework (reading a book and make an analysis of it) or you had to do the dishes of the school during lunch or clean classes after school and let your parents sign your agenda where the lateness was written down. if you had six you would be suspended for like a day or two and your parents had to come to school and if you continued they would gently make sure you (and your parents) understood it would be preferable for you to change schools... so yeah and we were a normal school not a very strict or private one. sorry for the english it's not my first language.
@@morganeh2153 so unpaid labor for dishes, policy that relies upon circumstances (if you get a mild case of the flu, it would likely break this...let alone depending upon how strict the methods are (like only a few seconds or a minute late), and unpaid extra work for the employees that is not monitored... what could possibly go wrong? did your school really say that they wanted kids who actually showed up to class(albeit late) to go to a different school?
@@nathanielbass771 if often late yes. Those were the rules you AND your parents signed every year. As for unpaid labour, if you get punished at home you have to do shores too it's the same really. The rules haven't changed btw. And late well the school closed its doors at 08h40 wich is when the bell rings so if you came at 08h41 you might get lucky and they still see you and let you in otherwise nope and it's the main enterance with a note and for class, well as long as you werent more than 5 min late it was ok really. Only one person ever got told to leave for that reason when I was there. I don't know but when I hear stuff like constant tardiness and other I don't get it it just rarely happens in my country. And those punishments aren't really harsh as you have loads of chances.
My school was the size of a small college plaza. They asked middle schoolers to cross property in 5 minutes even though they had no reliable way to cross the property with rubbing shoulders. Each class you were late to was a tardy 3 tardies resulted in dention. All of my schools had similar processes. The state fixed the absence loophole to my highschools policy we figured out it was better to miss than be late. I was graduated at that point.
The school I went to just had nesrely every site out there blocked including RU-vid. Didn't stop people finding ways to by pass this though, except all computers also had teacher monitoring on with flag logging for keywords. It was so hard to do research.
"We got rid of the couch in the break room and so started loosing the stoners in the warehouse as they started sleeping in places that we couldn't find" 😂😂
It sort of sounds like Fairfield, Pennsylvania when they tried to cull the children into getting healthy since anorexic and bulimic people were being hospitalized and the gym teachers made it mandatory that everyone gain an extra 50lbs.
reverseroundhouse no shit, what does that have to do with anything 😂 there’s small towns and shit like that around my area too and they do similar things, I was just surprised by the sheer number of people that show up to a high school football game
We had a zero tolerance policy at my school. One kid was beat up and told he was being suspended. In response to this he punched the bully in the face on his way out, saying "If I'm being punished for fighting, I might as well throw a punch". Didn't change anything unfortunately
The rule is mandatory to get funded. The logic is that the fear of expulsion outweighed the desire to bully/fight. Instead, it creates an environment of victims who are scared of defending themselves.
@@q-tip4723 funny that they would try it. zero tolerance has failed in every society to ever try it XD I forget what civilization it was...they had a "no crime or we chop your hands off or throw you in the river sort of thing" so basically, anyone bold enough to do it still did it and people could be held hostage by there being no means of proof, or that anyone who could swim could counterclaim their accuser
I know I've already said this, but one time, my school shut off the water. A bunch of rust appeared inside the pipes. When my teacher tried to get some water, a mixture of rust and water shot up in the air and my English teacher thought that day was a doomsday.
But is the prank not pretending that there will be a prank? For real though I loved this idea. My high school did a similar thing and I honestly wish we'd have come up with the anti prank.
My school banned boots for like two years but then literally the entire school created a petition to bring them back. When that was ignored for like the 12th time we made them explain why they banned boots. They just stayed quiet for like 5 minutes and we all just stared at them waiting for an answer but they never said anything. The next day we were allowed to wear boots again.
"No backpacks in the halls between classes" Alright, which genius had that idea and then didn't immediately follow up with "wait a minute that is the single stupidest thing ever conceived"?
The school banned skirts as they complained that they were getting shorter and shorter, and not appropriate for school. As the school had two separate uniform policies, one for girls and one for boys, this meant girls could no longer wear skirts. Dozens of boys turned up in skirts the next day.
Elijah Hodges I don’t mind them but they are a certain style and fly up in the wind (which is common) and the senior ones ride up the thighs and the under lining comes out.
That sounds a lot like my middle school. Any attempts to bring the student body together caused an increase in mockery. Most of my classmates snickered when someone suggested they be nice to their peers.
@TheTrueGamer66 the school I went to put a fake cctv camera inside the boys bathroom. One of those black round dome ones. They didn't say it was fake ofc, but people found the screen with the cameras and it wasn't on there. But after they put that there, I never went in again just incase. It couldn't see into stalld but it was above and would probably see the top of your head if it were real. This was done to deter big groups if people going in to vandalise and cause a mess or block other people.
Pretty sure that's illegal and if someone was to obtain proof of that and report it your school would get in trouble. (Principle at the very least gets canned)

My old school made kids take the caps off of every bottle purchased from the lunch room - water or not - as a result of the whole water bottle flipping/challenge thing. Not too long after this happened, a ton of kids would “spill” their drinks, hoping that they would stop taking the caps off of our bottles. The staff HATED this, but were reluctant to give us our caps back. After enough time went by (and after kids learned to flip their bottles upside down on the table, with the drink still in it) they finally ended up changing the policy. I understand their annoyance with the whole water bottle flipping thing but there were much better ways to handle all that. Also if you’re wondering, the people who made sure *you* were the one typing in your lunch pin were the ones that took our caps - one by one, as we were being charged for our lunch.
I remember in elementary school when the principle announced on the intercom that all Pokémon cards and games were banned from school. We all brought them and played with them anyway. When they started confiscating them, we brought Yu-Gi-Oh cards instead.
Once in my school they started confiscating stuff and not returning it to the students, so this one girl decide to call the police and report the teachers for stealing her stuff. The police actually came, and the day after every confiscated item was returned to their rightful owner
I had a teacher who started with "No bathroom during class. You will go before" We got five minutes between classes. My school at the time (they built a bigger one that we moved into the next year) was a large, very disorganized maze. If you went to the bathroom before class you were going to be late if your class was in a different building. So me, the asshole I am, went before every single day and showed up late by like three minutes. When she went to write me up, I casually mentioned I'd just tell them that she bans us from basic bathroom rights. I'm entitled to pee when I need too. My class is an hour and fifty minutes. So she backed down and got rid of her rule. Edit: I should also mention she had a rule that if you were late, she'd lock you out of the class. I'd bang on the door until she let me in.
Mephala Le Triste my school thinks three minutes between classes is enough time to get your books, get to classroom, and go to the bathroom if you need to go
@@feymckinney1177 Schools are stupid. Five minutes wasn't enough for us even. We had too many students which is why they built a new one. The new one was over three football fields long and they gave us seven minutes then because some kids literally had a class on one end and one all the way on the other right after.
@@colatheprotogen3744 most schools are legally required to have reinforced entryways including classroom doors. They are literally prisons where you can't even open the door if you shoot it
We have zero tolerance at my school and basically this is how it goes Kid1 starts beating up kid2 for a rumor that kid1 thought kid2 started but actually didn’t Kid2 isn’t getting suspended for no reason and fights back. Fight escalates a lot more than it would have in the first place and more people get hurt trying to stop it. :T yes, very smart
At my school (really only during the winter) if the weather was bad and everyone came I late because of it they would just cancel out the tardy, so some days we would mass plan on social media to not show up until 9. Good times
Path ; lol we got away with it like 7-8 times in the winter our senior year. Good times. School has gone to shit since tho some kid threatened to shoot it up and now it’s run like a jail lol
@@fitzgamer9992 Its when you try to stop a behavior and end up drawing way more attention to it than if you had just ignored it. The end result is that in trying to stop something you end up making it happen more.
Child psychology actually encourages you to do essentially the reverse. Basically you punish them the first time praise them for being good and ingore them for minor things eventually the kids realize they can get what they want by behaving. A lot of child psychology is listen to them be human.
My school didn't allow any wifi connection for students. The only access to the internet was through Ethernet connection on the school computers. And it was heavily monitored with most websites blocked. Although I knew the password to the school WiFi connection when I was in my first year. It was 0505050505. I found out from another student when I started the school and it worked and of course I told others. A few years later they changed it though.
In my school, if the board of education tries to pass a stupid fricking rule, we kids would just ignore it. They can't tell us what to do if we all retaliate, and we don't give two shats about them.
nathaniel bass unarmed though, when the swat team breaks through your old mrs.applegates door, a Harry Potter book will hardly stop a 44 mm. Bullet, but if you are looking for a quick kindergarten massacre, a book will do.
My high school had a rule where if you failed to turn in homework multiple times you got detention. I had seizures, a pretty bad learning disability for math, and my anxiety about getting homework done made me decide to calm my nerves by reading instead. Every single time. I read so much, teachers complained to my parents that I tried to read in class instead of listen to their lessons. So I was sent to detention once for not turning in homework and I was happier than any other kid in there since it meant I got 2 hours of free time to read in peace.
My heart actually breaks hearing some of the meaningless rules for high schoolers. Because I know it doesn't end there. You'll get only slightly more freedom in college or complete assholery if you go straight into job or military. Where adults are told when they can or cannot use their phone, when they can go eat, who they can and can't talk to, etc. A lucky some don't get stuck there tho
Unrelated but there’s this kid at my school who’s so godly. If the teachers collecting homework he would say he left it in his locker and he would be out in the hallway doing the homework before coming back to hand it in. I have so much respect for him lmao
If my school ever implemented zero tolerance, I would walk up to a staff or the principal and slap them and then be like “how dare you get into a fight?! You should be ashamed of yourself for breaking your own rules!”. Alternatively, bring a friend to the principals office, attack them (if they agree before hand), and then angrily demand they be expelled for being in a fight. Or tell the staff that if they don’t lift it you will slap every single student in the school work until everyone is expelled, effectively shutting down the school. Ha!
We had a teacher who tried that too. One student pissed on the teachers desk in class on purpose the week before his graduation. He defend himself with "if you won't let me go to the toilet you have to take the piss." Next year the teacher + this rules was gone.
I remember still asking to use the bathroom the teacher said no so I ran to a trash bin and took an emergency shit. Another rule that tries to ignore normal human function.
yeah, something similar happened to me. One bully attacked me, we fought, and when we got to the principal, the asshole decides to punish me, because " I think you attacked him, you look really angry" NO SHIT SHERLOCK, OF COURSE I'M ANGRY, I'M BEING PUNISHED AFTER BEING ATTACKED BY A SHITHEAD IN A SCHOOL WITH CAMERAS YOU CAN CHECK, YOU STUPID ASSHOLE!!
"Everyone has to follow their schedule to the letter" stopped after they realized all 3 of us were on lunch at the same time and couldn't do the one thing they need us always available for
At my school, it's a middle school and teachers want students to learn. They allowed only 4 times to use the bathroom during the year, they wouldn't let you go after 4 times during class. So during transitioning between classes (4 min break time) everyone filled the bathrooms, teachers refused to remove the rule. And now it was a huge problem because everyone was late to class, the bathrooms only have 2 stalls and there is 300 students. And there is 10 bathrooms
At my old high school there was only one way in and one way out, it was right next to a middle school so everyday their was alot of traffic but my school insisted that students got there on time or they would take away events like prom and homecoming, everyday theyre are at least 100-300 tardy people and yet they refuse to change theyre rule. I had at least 30 tardies a semester
@MIONTOMARU How could you sue them, sue then for what? Surely the solution is within the pupil's control, that is to turn up earlier as from the first day of school onwards you're aware of the bottleneck issue so should adjust your timings accordingly?
@NoodleNoggin While it would make sense to arrive earlier, most kids rely on buses to transport them to school, so they have to arrive at the exact same time every day. There is no option to arrive earlier unless they are in the minority where their own a car or have parents drive them.
They tried stopping us from crossing into the middle school they built in front of the highschool BUILT 20 YEARS AFTER THE HIGHSCHOOL that's also too croweded to begin with.
“Everyone has to clock on at the exact moment they are scheduled. No leeway” I know that seems reasonable; until you realize there were (at least) ten hourly employees scheduled at the same time (at any given moment) and only one time clock for everyone to use. They went back to giving a three minute window after less than a week.
In Middle School, the school I went to banned girls from wearing leggings to school. In protest, every girl at my school wore leggings the next day. Not even 3 days into the protest, they repealed the rule
@@natev5831 Mine was a bit bigger, but these feels are real. My class was the biggest the school had in decades, so big in fact they split is into an A and B class. Number of kids in the grade? About 25.
@@epepepe7178 I wish you luck my dude, my small home town is on the verge of death due to everyone leaving.

In my primary school we weren't allowed nuts in case someone was allergic. Nobody was and I kept bringing them to school because my dad didn't give a shit
I’m my school we have something called “flex” it is a free period where you go and do work in classes or read. Our school saw that 12% of students failed this year so they moved flex from the end of school to the beginning turns out that a free period in the morning lead to people not coming to first period because they were still sleeping. They still have it in the morning.
My school had lockers, enough for half the school, but they were reserved for 6th formers (highest 2 years of secondary school), which from a school of 1500 made up approximately 60 students. I asked for one, got refused, and the lockers just sat there gathering dust.
In my school, the lockers were all outside and so tiny, you couldn't fit a backpack or a normal sized bag in. They were more like small safes, but made of plastic and aluminium with rubbish locks and holes in the tops of them so they got damp, wet, and couldn't fit anything much. So people used them to horde food inside and stick rubbish in and no one actually used them. You also had to pay for these might I add. They just became areas for people to hang around in and vandalise so they began disappearing.
My school we were forced to never wear sweaters or jackets in school and to put it in their locker. My problem with that is that I didn't get a locker until the end of the fucking school year. So during the winter I had to carry my heavy winter coat with me everywhere (I lived over a mile away with no one to take me to school) and I couldn't fit it in my bookbag because it consists of all my books, School Laptop and homework and gym clothes. So the fucking coat was not going to fit in there. And don't get me started on how they had a Dress code for shoes as well, my boots weren't the right color so they'd right me up for it, I can't fit my normal fucking shoes in my bookbag because of all the school shit it needs to hold. And of course, people were making fun of me including the teachers who asked "why don't you just put it in your locker" after I give them the same exact response. I would also forget my coat in a different class sometimes so I'd be spend a while looking for it which makes me late to another class. Eventually everytime after Gym ended I never changed back cuz of how fucking packed my bag was, all staff members included principle would just let it slide for the next few years. But holy fuck they could've given me a fucking locker sooner
My school stopped letting girls wear those scrunchie things so all the guys bought one and started wearing them on our arms and pretty much all the guys got in huge trouble, but the problem is when you have around 40 guys in a waiting room most of us could leave
So , at my old school ( left after last year bc I moved ) they apparently banned backpacks . Bc of the year prior they had a drug issue ( kid got arrested for selling weed , school got in trouble ) and everyone was pissed , bc the lockers where so old , that the locks where really hard to unlock in the 5 minutes we had , and run to the other side of campus for class . So a lot of us just kept everything in our backpacks . Everyone went wild and took to insta when they found this out and the kids put up a pation to cancel it . I guess ( I didn’t go there this year , so I learned from getting told . ) that everyone brought backpacks anyway and they got confiscated. So they brought these big ass purses and bags and shi just to carry it . The school brought backpacks like 2 months in because it was easier to sneak things in through the bags . They also banned tampons , but that’s a different story .
5:52 Fun Fact: There was a time when students would carry books to and from school by putting a belt tightly around them to hold the books together, then they would sling the books over their shoulders and hold the belt at the front. I've seen this numerous times in old comic book stories. This method of carrying school books has never been commented on in any of the stories, which is why I believe it was copying real life. It was just accepted as *the* method of carrying school books, many years ago.
11:14 My school has a new rule this year that sweeps the hall *immediately after the late bell* and they make you go to the cafeteria/auditorium where you have to fill out a form. Every question on the form is a self-incriminating statement. Basically people use it to legitimately skip class since we cant leave till we fill out the form and they cant take us to a principles office since it isn't high enough on the discipline ranking XD
The Rattlesnake one is simultaneously horrifying, astounding, and hilarious. I hope the guy's alright, but to actually keep a rattlesnake in a firm hold like that while under attack by the same snake is an impressive feat, and I can only imagine what was going through the snake's head. "H-Hey! Biting you is not an invitation to cuddle me, what the fuck are you doing and HOW?!"
Yeah. They told us we have to “dodge the fist and immediately come to an adult”. Listen, I know that my dean has some sort of spider-senses, but I’m pretty sure NONE OF THE STUDENTS HAVE A SECOND PAIR OF EYES STITCHED TO THE BACK OF THEIR HEAD, AND NEITHER CAN THEY READ SOMEONE ELSE’S MIND
@@andrewe.2464 sometimes it is straight up insane with how it works with ONLY the victim getting in trouble like the time during a rest period after stretches the largest kid took a dodge ball and threw it full force directly at my face hard enough to break my glasses and I was the only one who got in trouble.
A private school I once attended made a "Hit Back" policy, where if one student hit another student, they could tell the teacher and be allowed to hit their attacker back. This rule lasted one day before they did this with a student with severe anger problems, hence why he'd punched one of his classmates in the shoulder to begin with. After being cornered by the teacher and with the entire class watching, the classmate he hit went up and socked him a good one in the chest. I don't know what they were expecting to happen, but at this point, the boy with anger issues just lost it and tackled his "hit backer", breaking his nose and splattering blood everywhere. Needless the say, the rule was lifted almost as soon as it came.
When I was in elementary school we couldn’t talk at lunch most of the time. If we did we would have to pull sticks. I was almost sent to the principals office once because of that rule.
in grade school, I hardly knew anyone. They would move you to another table if you were too loud or in trouble. It's not exactly my fault if you leave without me in a cafeteria filled with hundreds of kids constantly entering and leaving
I don't remember too much, But when I was in elementary school.. we weren't allowed to talk during lunch time.. Or at least we had to whisper.. Like seriously... They had the principal stand up on a podium with a microphone and yell at anyone who talked too loud, and would make them stay after to wash the tables.. One day I was talking to a classmate and I like to dip my French fries into ranch.. she saw and thought I was "playing with my food" and called me out in front of the entire School .. of course Being in second grade.. I start crying out loud and everyone looked at me.. I was pulled out of the lunchroom and I was crying so much they called my parents... My mom came to pick me up and told the principal that it was a stupid rule A week Later.. there was no longer a limit to how loud we can talk.. I think it's because more parents and teachers complained about it.. {Honorable mention} When I was in fifth grade at a different school.. Our teacher gave us 15 minutes to eat..we had 40 minutes of lunch It was our 'punishment' I don't remember why.. but I think it was because we didn't line up on time... that..one..time.. He was really strict...
This reminds me of the missing assignment policy when I went to middle school. If you had at least 3 missing assignments they would keep you at some designated tables all of lunch. The thing is was that if you didn't have missing assignments you were forced to go outside. Yes, There was the exception of library passes but they often would be taken by a braty group of people that wouldn't let anyone else have them. Also it can be incredibly cold during winter. Let's just say that more then half the cafeteria was taken over by us supposed delinquents during the winter. I have no idea if they got rid of the rule. it's been years. Honestly, the reason why I made sure I had 3 missing assignments at all times was because I would have less of a chance of my art work getting wreck due to bad weather and why go hunt for a pass that's probably already taken when you can guarantee that you don't have to go outside by just having a few missing assignments? (those assignments I actually had done but refused to turn in.)
In my gym class we play that game called Pinball. Except that they made it so if you made a ball into the basketball hoop on the opposite side then everyone who was out is brought back in.
On standardized testing days all students were only allowed to bring certain items to school. One permitted item was a so-called "pleasure book", by which they meant a novel or the like. The student body had a field day with the term and it often caused giggle-filled discussion during times when they were supposed to be reading their said "pleasure book".

My high school said that “you had to ask to do anything during lunch time” i.e get seconds, bathroom, etc and my high school has a lot of special needs children (non verbal, autistic, etc) I fall into the autistic category. So I got all my friends to sit in the hallway during lunch which is prohibited. And I said when they are b*tching about not in the lunch room I stood up and said “you need to ask US to get us in the lunch room” so they asked and I looked them dead in the eye and said “no”
When I was in high school we got too much homework. A rule was introduced that late assignments would not be tolerated nor would extensions on deadlines and detention would be given. The entire year level received detention once due to the impossibility of completeing all of the homework on time.
A team I was a part of regularly hired the same actor to play the same character no less than five or six times. One project in particular REALLY raised a few brows because, once the auditions ended, they asked all the other actors to remove their audition files (it was a public audition page, I didn't remove mine because I was a rebel). Supposedly this was to avoid clutter and confusion, but eyes really started darting when someone accused them of playing favorites. The Director replied "There were actually a lot of good auditions and it was a close call." The accuser asked "Can you name a few top-runners?" Then the Director realized that, by having people delete their auditions, he couldn't back up his claim and reverted to the old "my memory is foggy" excuse. I'll bet it seemed like a decent cover to him at the time, but that only made people MORE suspicious of him and his motives. Some actors never worked for him again after that. He has yet to repeat the same mistake, so I guess he learned his lesson.
This one teacher I had always scolded me in front of the class for putting on chapstick, telling me “this isn’t beauty school”... really it’s fucking chapstick you fucking lunatic. She had it out for me. I had horrible pathetic teachers growing up. I think I’ve maybe had 2-3 actually decent teachers in my life that I can remember a few things they taught me that I still use today.

all of my teachers were so worthless they could be replaced with videotapes. NON-INTERACTIVE ones!
Just imagine this: Captain: "Jefferson, do you know what snake bit you?" Jefferson: "No Sir, unfortunately not." Captain: "Ok.. well.. gather around everyone!" **Everyone gathers around the Captain** Captain: "Guys, if you get bit by a snake and you cannot identify it, please bringt it back to base, so we can identify it instead and make sure you get the right treatment!" 1 week later **Jefferson walks in with a live rattlesnake that is repeatedly biting his arm while he is standing there** Jefferson: "Sir, I brought back the snake that bit me, just like you asked!" Captain: "Jefferson?" Jefferson: "Yes, Sir?" Captain: "Is that snake still alive and still biting you as we speak?" Jefferson: "Why, yes Sir, why do you ask?" **1 day later the Captain gives new orders, while rubbing his eyes in disbelief** Captain: "Guys.. if you bring back a snake to base, because it bit you- please.. PLEASE make sure its dead before you bring it here!"
if I were a marine, I would be one to do this but not out of just following the orders to the letter but instead because it's somewhat pointless to just kill something. All you need is a bucket or container that's big enough and has a lid...if you managed to catch it after getting bit
On the first day of 1st grade and when recess started, we were all running towards the big kid playground (kindergarteners had a playground for them only) my friend Kevin slipped and fell under the stairs and started to cry immediately. I still laugh at that. That was 8 years ago
1:37 You know, if people are 5 minutes late all the time, there's a very strong possibility that, you know, *you're just not giving people enough time to get from class to class.* Plus, whoever had the bright idea of banning the use of lockers was an idiot: At eight classes a day, and each book weighing around 5 lbs, that's 40 lbs of books, plus notebooks, pens, etc, so you're demanding that students lug 50 lbs worth of stuff all day long, including to lunch.
When and why did backpacks become the only acceptable way to carry your books? In my school everybody just did their own thing... satchels, tote bags, whatever you chose.
Melkior Wiseman Half correct but needs elaboration. Let me explain: You’re right, they don’t hire the undead, And you’re right, the sergeants naturally look like that. But the reality is, they _naturally_ look like that because they have _become_ undead...
The one story reminded me of my great great grandpa, who had actually served coincidentally. My mom and her brothers were on a walk with their grandpa and came across a rattlesnake. This badass grandpa strode forward, grabbed it behind the head, and snapped the vertebrae right behind the skull, killing it instantly.
Basically 3 strikes your out fighting/ bullying wise Kicker? You had to tell the person to stop hitting/ picking on you or it didnt count So if you were a quiet kid or the bully knocked the wind out of you they could keep hurting you Then a really big bully started picking on this quiet kid and the guy just attacked him hitting him right in the face repeatididly guy was on the ground guy just kept going until a teacher finally pulled him off When asked why he kept going he said the guy never told him to stop Rule over
That’s a better rule than what we have here. What we have here at our school is a “zero-tolerance fighting rule”. So a bully can beat the hell out of you, and you are suspended. Because in the rule, “being involved in a fight in any way shape or form will inevitably end up in the same punishment as the one who engaged the fight”. Even if you didn’t fight back or even defend yourself, you’ll be punished. We still have the rule.
Lemme just list some of the STUPID rules in my school: -Students aren't allowed to carry their phone (teachers take them if they see them) -No bathroom break first or last 10 minutes of class with a 3 minute transition time -No lockers between classes only in the morning or afternoon. And no backpacks - No jackets -No holes in jeans above your knees THEY LITERALLY MAKE KIDS PUT ZAXBY'S STICKERS ON STUDENT'S JEAND -No drawing on yourself, even if it's just a note to self they have the "right" to write you up
They stopped letting us bring our backpacks into 7th hour. They abandoned it the week it was implemented because 700 students trying to get to their lockers, a good chunk of them having lockers on the other side of the building from their 7th hour, at the same time was chaos.
We had a "no shorts allowed" policy. Of course, gym class was the exception. I think the school feared "daisy duke shorts" when they were popular- in the 1980s and 1990s. Girls were allowed to wear skirts that were fingertip length (i.e., arms to the side. If it went above the fingertips, you would have to wear shitty sweat pants). Anyway, my entire school- the males anyway- colluded to wear kilts on the same day. We did this for a month. The school met with the seniors and the student government to address the problem. We suggested the ban on shorts be lifted. The school said that they can't do that, as it may offend all 3 of the amish students- no that isn't exaggerated. We came to a compromise. Knee length, which meant it had to touch the knee. Girls hated that. But they got to wear skirts. Edit: the year this happened was 2014, when I was a senior.
"may offend" wtf? there is a separation of church and state for a reason. If it offends them, they will probably not be able to go out in public and "offend" could be used the same way against amish clothing and practices...what lunacy
@@nathanielbass771 Keep in mind, small town school in a city where the Amish live in several pockets. The policies were created by some stuck up prick when the school was built in the 1970s. Since the rule got repealed, there have been no more amish attendance.
My school told the girls we weren’t allowed to wear makeup, earrings or paint out nails. The next day, my boyfriend and his friends showed up in makeup, stuck on earring and painted their nails rainbow 😹😹
"Teeny tiny rural school, 600 kids in grades 7-12"....my school was 300 people between K-12, including staff, some years the preschool was even held at the school.
5:01 that happened at my sisters school, but honestly nobody cared and were actually relieved. My sis was stabbed with a pencil one time so she was okay with the new rule aswell
Zero Tolerance Policies on fighting. Hadn’t had it happen but it always ends up with the victim severely injuring the bully, and justify it by saying, “I would’ve gotten suspended anyways, so better to make it worth it.”
