My teacher, sent me to the principal's office, she was very angry at me. It was weird to me that she told me I needed to go because she always fond of me. The principal was on my side.
I was a teacher's pet type but I did get suspended from school one time in my freshman year at high school.
I ended up hanging out with a guy who liked to smoke a lot of marijuana as well as take shrooms and skip class a lot. He was a bit of a troublemaker but one of the few people who accepted me as a friend being brand new to the school and not understanding much in the way of American culture, fashion, slang, etc.
So one day he was panicked in the hallway and asked me if he could stash his weed in my bookbag. I agreed and helped him.
Yet in the following class, the police entered our classroom combined with drug-sniffing dogs. The teacher asked us to leave the class while leaving all of our belongings in the classroom, so I did.
Then they discovered the drugs I stashed for my friend and asked me if it was mine. So I said yes. The teacher kept saying like, "No no no! He's my very best student. This must all be a mistake. There is a boy he hangs out with who is such a troublemaker. He must be the owner of the drugs." So she looked at me directly in the eyes and said like, "Please tell these officers that they aren't your drugs." Me: "They're mine."
Anyway, I ended up getting suspended. Some people think what I did was extremely foolish but I'm no snitch and I don't betray my friends. Also I enjoyed the suspension actually. It was an in-school suspension and I got to meet a lot of new kids hanging out. They were all troublemakers but actually really nice to me.
They were also extremely lenient to me. Just 2 weeks of in-school suspension given that I was a top student with no criminal record. Also there was this really pretty girl I met in the detention program and we talked a lot. She was a bit of a troublemaker but I really liked her. I was too shy though to ask her out even though she was really flirty.
Nice read... I enjoyed reading this. we are very similar.
I totally would have put the weed inmy underware like johnson did, on the breakfast club, heh
Ok, well, am gonna watch, breakfast club again, tonight. :)
Nice! I've been starting to watch a whole bunch of 80s movies lately. I get very nostalgic. đ
me toođ
LOL. I met a fellow metalhead when I went to detention. I also met a guy who had in school suspension. I met him and his girlfriend the year before that and seen them often. They were nice, I just never got their names. I was in detention for a reason though. I shouldn't have had my devil horns and middle finger up in the air. But I learned my lesson. (sorta.)
breakfast club is hilarious. My sis and I watched it last time we were in Orlando. I just waiting until we go back again. (Probably in two or three months.)
@StudyingAuthor In my case, I was rather new to American culture and even American English (I learned British English) when I went to high school. It was the first time I lived in the US for long periods of time and only went there for vacations before. So I was the dork who didn't understand initially what people even meant when they said things like, "'Sup". Me: "Uhh, hi, how are you?" đ
So I actually got really shy in high school (started getting over it in uni) and just kept my head down and focused on nothing but studying and sports. I had a lot of difficulty making any friends as a result and bounced between cliques.
Sometimes I'd hang out with the nerds being a teacher's pet but I couldn't understand the geeky culture they'd talk about, like I never watched much Star Trek at that point (later I would as an adult, but back then I barely knew about it). So I was confused hanging out with them at recess.
Sometimes I'd hang out with the jocks since I was on the track team and a running back on the football team and could sprint really fast. But they were all really popular and cool people who liked to socialize and party and I was really shy and became the
ubernerd so I didn't always get along with them either.
Then sometimes I'd hang out with the skaters since I've been skateboarding since the age of 7 but they were all into a rebellious sub-culture of skating, when I was just into skating for the sake of learning and landing new tricks and was interested in it more like a jock and even dressed like one. So I didn't fit in there either.
It was actually the stoners and also metalheads who actually accepted me halfway. They didn't seem to mind talking to me a lot even though I only liked some metal (Bathory and Metallica) and didn't smoke weed or do shrooms or anything.
@StudyingAuthor The other were the black kids who sort of formed a clique of their own. They also halfway accepted me and I hung out with them a lot at recess, although they gave me the nickname of "Jackie Chan" being Asian and for some other reasons which get really long-winded but they thought I was a martial artist (I wasn't and kept telling them that). đ
I enjoyed Breakfast Club but had some difficulty relating to it as a result since I just didn't really understand the cliques and normal struggles of being in high school as the type who just sort of kept my head down and focused on studying and training.
Wow, that nickname is lowkey racist. I always was in the clique with all the boys that told sexual jokes. So if I had a cheeto and said to my friend that's a long one, my friend would say that's what she said. LOL.
The only other metalhead I knew was my closest friend. We constantly debated on our favorite bands.
I think Love Doctor Brad Quit or heâs not talking to us anymore. Asked a new question & nothing.
@Static_In_The_Attic LOL. guyanswersgirls broke him yesterday.
@StudyingAuthor Brad is definitely giving us the silent treatment & he didnât answer my most recent question. I guess Iâll have to ask his cousin Alexa.
@StudyingAuthor We had a lot of those "That's what she said" jokes as well in a variety of the cliques as well as lots of Beavis & Butthead and South Park imitations. Butthead; "Uhh... huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu. She said 'long'." Beavis: "Eheheheheheheeeheee. Yeah, yeah! Need TP for my bunghole!" That was the ultimate lowbrow humor popular in my day is to do Beavis & Butthead impressions of everything.
On racism, this is a controversial thought that sometimes gets me into trouble but I really think people have made too light of the concept of racism. I don't think toying with cultural stereotypes should be considered in that category. It might be a bit insensitive, a bit ignorant, but there was no malice when the kids called me "Jackie Chan" or asked me if I liked rice or any of that. They even became terms of endearment. I think people have become oversensitive to the point where they can't tell the difference between humor and malice.
Real racism is malicious and genuinely cruel. For example, once while I was walking back to my hotel at night in Los Angeles, some group of jackasses blasting music in their car slowed down and shouted, "Go back to your own country, asshole!" and drove off. That's racist as I see it; it has genuine hostility and cruelty behind it. Still not worth getting deeply upset about since that would just make them succeed in their goal, but I really think American culture has become too sensitive when they can't distinguish this type of case from friendly banter and humor between people.
@StudyingAuthor But I also think it's counter-productive to be outraged. For example, if I was outraged being called "Jackie Chan" and told a teacher or something, those kids who were friendly to me would likely have ceased to be friendly at all, and instead of talking to me, would probably have started talking about me instead. So I don't think that's working towards a society where people can cooperate and get along with a wider variety of people. Instead I think we have to work towards becoming thick-skinned and learn to tell a joke which means no harm (however poor) from something actually intended to do so.
Yeah, I see your point.
@Static_In_The_Attic We should celebrate!
I fought back the bullies using violence. My parents got a bad letter from school.
I only regret not causing more damage.
were on your side?
were your parents, on your side?
that's good that your parents were on your side, too bad it didn't stop, completly
they will always remember

I was accused of stealing another bxitchâs bookbag⌠when she actually grabbed min instead during dismissal because when I went to grab âmyâ bag, the one appearing to be mine, I was grabbing the only one there looking like mine and after further discussion it was concluded we made a mix up, but it was her fault for taking the wrong one. She clearly had one of the two and saw I had one and simply accused me.
Luckily both our moms⌠luckily my mom put MY name in my bag lol 😆
For all I care her mother was stupid as her, as was that teacher or got to level 300 anger. To add: she also got slapped by a parent for pushing the son of that parent into a wall, and was fired. That same teacher lol.
Crazy⌠crazy days.
Mine*
That sucks
Correcting my math teacher when she got the math problem wrong she got an attitude about it. I explained that she had just written something wrong. She got more mad and told me I don't know what I am talking about I am a student and not a teacher. Told me to go the principles office. I figured fuck it I'm in trouble anyways may as well make it real trouble. Told her "just because you are too much of a dumb cunt to realize you wrote something wrong doesn't mean everyone else is too dumb to see it." Got suspended but my parents tore her a new asshole when they saw the problem and that it was indeed wrong.
I have pointed that out to teachers before too. I think everyone shouldjust get G. E. D's
a G. E. D
It was a long time ago, in 7th grade, I went to a Catholic school and our 7th grade nun was probably the most disliked teacher in the school. One of the girls decided to get the entire class to play a prank on the nun. When the clock struck 9am, we all bent over to tie our shoes. The nun went ballistic. For some unknown reason, (maybe because I was near the front of the class and she saw me first) she thought I was behind it and sent me to the principal's office. The principal (a very popular nun) knew it wasn't me, but had to "support" the nun, so she kept me out of class for 30 minutes before sending me back.
that sucks but, am glad she believed 'you'
Okay- when I was in 3rd grade the classroom was next to the principals office. Te teacher said she had to leave for a few minutes and we were to be quiet and stay seated. So I get up and start drawing on the blackboard. All of a sudden I feel a big hand on my shoulder. It was Mr. Murphy the principal. He dragged me into his office. He had an 18 inch ruler with a brass strip in the middle for extra heft. He told me to stick out my hand and he gave me a dozen good whacks on the back of my hand. This was what was known as a rat tan.
Fast forward ten or 12 years and I am with a friend that was engaged to my college roomate. I was at her house and I was talking to her father. He asked me where I grew up and I told him the town. He asked me if I knew John Murphy. It turns out that his college roommate was my elementary school principal. I did not tell him about the rat tan.
I don't believe that nuns doing that.
I would draw on the chalkboards as well
nuns shouldn't do that, is what I meant
Happened to everyone, for the smallest thngs, not sure if that happens now.
Never.
I was the only student allowed to do what I wanted to do.
Because I was winning all the competitions and helped my school get a good name, I was an A student and breaking rules were forgiven.
Also, If I broke rules, it was mainly to stand by my classmates.
Because if teachers heard I was involved too, they wouldnât be punished.
Because they were with me.
So often times, I have saved them by saying I was the one who was by their side when they were breaking rules.
It saved one of my classmate from being expelledâŚ
And he was always very thankful to me and still messages me fondly telling me he loved me.
I started a fan club in high school & my friends & I put I up a few hundred signs throughout the halls. Long story short I got called to the principals office, he wasnât happy & threatened to expel me because the signs were advertising. In my quick defense I stated that there wasnât anything in the student handbook about advertising or starting your own fan club. The principal left the room, came back & said you can go back to class but before you do you have to remove all the signs & so I did, somewhat.
I always got sent to the principal's office for a reason. The funniest time is when I was getting on the bus and had my middle finger up and my devil horns up. I got 2 days in detention after that. But I never got sent to her office that often, I was mainly in the counselor's office every other day. But I did get accused of death threats to my friends.
Throwing snowballs. Also for calling a classmate stupid for scoring on our own goal in gym class.
what or who did you throw, snowballs at?
throwing snowballs is nothing. now blowing paper spit balls through a straw, on someones hair, they get away with it
Ran the wood shop teachers head through the band saw?
what happened?
@SandandWaves Only kidding, if that happened I would still be in prison!
That's what I thought. :)
I just wanted to ask, to see if you accidentally did it.
Behind closed doors he repeatedly agreed with me back then.
Once he said "You must understand that I need to do my job".
We were kind of allies - but for society it would have been unwise to show it openly :)
I bet so much accusations go unchecked and handled wrongly in schools. Kids need lawyers too lol
Apologies that happened to you, then.
Right on! Sounds like an A-1 mom :]
once by mistake
the girl they wanted was named Lily meanwhile my name is Laly
so the principal got me instead of her
lol!!! Something about a Wine Bottle I had Brought... Cannot Recall more. xxoo
I was never sent to the principal's office. 😆
Most often, standing up for myself when someone else decided to start a fight with me!
I had nothing to do with that kid getting pushed out the window.
It was sent to the vice principals office many times and it was always for fighting
Protecting girls or.. ?
did the beating, make the bullies, stop?
Surprisingly, it never happened.
I remember getting sent but I forget why
I farted in class once and got suspended
