    now that the last day of school is rapidly approaching, i take it that the leaving certs are all planning to wreak their respective schools.
    However as my father refuses to lend me the angle grinder so that puts a damper on my plans.
    And now i need ideas.....

    Help would be greatly required.

    (and i dont want to be arrested in the process)

    I dont think my school does it...although I'm sure some ideas could be broached. TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY :D

    [i thought this was gonna be about Monty Python.]

    Our school will just be the usual stink bomb/chewing gum in locks/flooding toilets/throwing eggs and flour, just the usual crap.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 4,436 Mod ✭✭✭✭Suaimhneach


    I said it to some people in school today, they just thought I was mad. Ah well. Guess it will be another year to do it. I'm more interested in gettin the teachers hammered on graduation night!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Roller Toaster


    We've had a streaker the last two years, I'm pretty sure this year will be no different.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,596 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    I did this last year, and it went down well:

    If you're school has drinking fountains, taps or whatever, buy a big bag of water balloons and place them beside the taps.

    Let nature, and immature students, take its course. :)

    Ah, amateurs :)
    Memorable ones from my school have been the release of birds, snakes and grasshoppers in to the school corridors, the burning of a profanity in to the grass using the same chemical that Bart uses in the Simpsons episode and the piéce de resistance being the lifting of a teachers car and placing it in a really awkward position in which it would be impossible to drive out of. Like the small buggy in Austin Powers when he gets it trapped between the two walls and keeps going forward and back.

    There is a school quite near me where someone got up to the water tank and added some Potassium Permanganate (KMNO4) to the water in the tank. Lovely purple colour in the water for aaaages.

    Heh.

    Last week, a letter of warning came home with each of our Mock Report cards (something along the lines of no pranks or the consequences could be serious).

    Today, we got two teddy bears from a room, formed a large circle in the centre of the yard and pretended there was a big fight going on (we were shouting and roaring and ****.) Vice Principal (the guy with the power) came out and rammed his way through the circle to find Minnie Mouse on top of Generic Teddy, and everyone around roaring abuse and laughing at him.

    Other pranks yet to be carried out are erection of a Bloody crucifix in a nearby pitch, facing the school, and random graffiti.

    ah thats brilliant. something always happens at our school, cars are always moved.
    last year the gates were locked with a mother of a chain and all the buses were stuck inside. It was gas, but the princible and all , well most of the teachers saw the funny side.
    taking the bars out of the cattle grid was my idea, but it takes too long and theyll have an eye out around the gates this year.
    so far all thats known for certain is that were coming back to the school after the afters of the grad mass with 30 euro worth of tissue... i knoow, fairly pathetic.

    Com'n people! We need ideas!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    Iv been on to people in my eyar for two weeks now and all the lazy ****es just couldnt be arsed!!!
    So i wished a curse on them all.

    But so far weve got planned...
    1.making slanderous and humours "election" posters of our principal to be distributed amongst the school.
    2.dishwasher tablets in the toilets.
    3.locking the gates at mid-night, therefore nobody can get in which i think is funnier.
    4.on monday morning were gonna try to squeeze all the sixth years into the sixth year toilets....theyre fairly small you see.
    5.and the big one....were gonna "hijack" a sheep, bring it back to the school, dress it in a school jumper and let it loose in the school.

    Constructive criticism and recommendations welcome.

    I'd love to know how you're going to restrain a sheep long enough to put a jumper on it, without a "Him and Mr Simpson split a case of malt liquor" *thud* "Hello, that sounds like a pig falling over" situation, as funny as finding a drugged sheep dressed in school uniform in the school would be.

    Sheep on the green and chickens in the study hall. We're a school in the city but there are a few farmers that'll be willing to help. Ooh and fish in the ventilation system.

    Ummmm... they clean them? I think they mean washing up liquid or something with lots of bubbles/foam.


  • Subscribers Posts: 9,716 ✭✭✭CuLT


    Hmm, ysterday was my last day.

    There wasn't any real "fight the man" stuff. We all went out last night though :)

    I'd say most of the institute - most of its talent anyway - were in Q-bar last night, was great craic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,265 ✭✭✭Seifer


    You put washing up liquid (dishwasher tablet) in the cistern then when some flushes it, whole loada bubbles!
    I haven't been in school for a week so I dunno what's going on. Might go in on monday to see...

    So dishwasher tablets are a no, no? How much washing up liquid should one use?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭smelly girl


    what if we put a few boxs in one toilet?

    I've only done it with the washing up liquid, I just put the (dishwasher tablets) in to refer to what they were talking about in the explanation.

    Yeah but how much liquid do i have to use in each cistern?

    As long as you dont buy the really cheap stuff "quix" and all that, you should be allright with about 1/3 of the small fairy liquid sized bottles for each cistern, and a full bottle for the urinal cistern. If you're really determined, and have time, get a deoderant can lid (just some deep, plastic cup-shaped thing that will hold liquid) and fill it with blue food colouring, tie it around where the water pumps into the cistern and fill it with colouring. When it's flushed, the bubbles will blue and it stains everything as long as you put enough in. If it's the teachers toilets I'd advise using the bubbles, food colourings, and about 2kgs of caustic soda. If you were a real pro, you could mix concentrated hydrocholric acid into the liquid soap. The last one may be a bit *too much* trouble though.

    Or buy some gillette, stick it in the freezer, cut open the cans and place the frozen shaving foam in various locations.

    Not sure of that actually works, it's a bit of an urban legend.

    Yeah, that doesnt work at all. It expands a bit, but only slightly - it's more hassle than its worth tbh. Fairly hard to cut through the frozen metal and the results don't really match the effort.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    I feel sorry for the janitor... Target the principle and teachers *cough* cars *cough*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭smelly girl


    yeah, they always end up pickin up all the **** we leave behind.
    Some of the lads are promising to lock the gates tomorrow because noone will suspect it.
    Goob****es are gonna get us in crap.

    They gave us the "don't do anything you'll regret from now untill the end of the year or else we'll give you a bad reference" speech today. Little do they know it's only going to encourage people to thrash the place...

    I have a plan for gettin about seven people into my focus and going mad. 2 in the boot of course
    target = sancta maria
    amunition = eggs
    outcome = rolling around breaking are h*oles laughin

    I think that an air horn might be in order for the last day in school. Scare the sh*t out of a few people. twill be well funny


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,265 ✭✭✭Seifer


    We got that about a week ago after one two many stink bombs.
    The best thing to do with those is leave it under the leg of a desk at the end of a class. You leave and the next person that sits on the desk will break the bomb.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    UPDATE....yesterday we took all the batteries out of every clock in the school, t'was a great prank in my opinion, thinking about the confusion but before the mayhem could ensue the principal decidedto ruin the fun and ordered all the clocks to be taken down.

    So i filled the cisterns of the 6th year toilets with dishwasher tablets, and washing up liquid in the urinal cistern. No-one flushed the toilets but the toilets are now off limits to all, a guy was told this while he tried to get in and was stopped by the principeal....he caught a glimpse only to see two janitors in there on ladders mopping up the bubbly floor.

    He took us on...and he failed.

    Also, for all thos interested, we had to abandon the sheep in school jumper plan because our "Driver" backed out.

    Theres still time so all and any suggestions are still welcome.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29 Stevie G


    when i was i school we stopped the clocks and screwed with the class bell that rings at the end of every class. we made it so that it went of every 20 min,s and we had 2 hours of lunch! that take alot of planning and can go very wrong we also let chickens roam the halls of the school and locked one of ourselves in wit the pa system mayham and sh!ty fm followed we were told to go home and never come back how bad finished school a day early!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,225 ✭✭✭JackKelly


    I'd say most of the institute

    on our second last day of school a friend of mine mooned through the window at the vice principal as she was teaching a class of firstyears.
    the bitch didnt see the funny side and viewed the cctv videos to see who it was and suspended him for the last day of school.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 751 ✭✭✭SeanPuddin


    today after school, we collected all the comfy spongey teachers chairs, while all the borders were eating there dinner. We found an attic, with a ventilator in there, and nobody ever goes in there. We stashed all 27 chairs up there, and laughed our asses off at the thought! We're finished on wednesday week (26th), but we couldn't resist the temptation!

    I'll keep ye posted, wether or not there is secret cameras in our school!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 751 ✭✭✭SeanPuddin


    another classic:

    get a black bag and put a fair bit of talcum powder in it.

    now wait til someone goes into a small toilet/room, i mean small enough

    stuff the opening of the bag under the door completely.

    fill the bag with air (lift it up)

    jump on it!

    you'll be confronted with a ghost and one white room!


    an absolute classic for the teachers/staff toilet, believe me!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭orangerooster


    Two lads in my school put dishwasher liquid in a cistern(only bubbled a bit!) but the coup de grace was the green food colouring that has the water in one of the toilets gone a deep green.They also made a load of posters saying "Wednesday is the day" with two sinister eyes on it.I heard teachers and students asking whats happening Wednesday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,012 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    whats the best sort of colouring to use in a toilet cistern? Is there any fabric dye in tablet form? I'm going to try the washing up liquid with colouring, but I dont want to use a liquid dye because It'll be used up after a few goes. How many flushes will the washing up liquid do before its cleaned up? and if I dump a full bottle of fairy liquid into the cistern, will it overflow when flushed? I'd love to put a different colour dye in each of the six stalls and flood the whole jaxx with different coloured bubbles.

    another idea, would be to take the lid off the cistern of a toilet, break off the orange ball, put the lid back on and leave very fast. If the orange ball is broken off the cistern will overflow and flood the place until someone holds a bar up in the toilet or turns off the water.

    I was examining my own toilet at home and if you look at your own one, you'll see that theres a bar with an orange ball on it. The ball floats and pushes the bar up, which in turn pushes a button, to stop refilling the toilet. On my model, theres a nut on the bar to adjust the water flow. If you screw it a bit, water will start to trickle into the cistern slowly (or fast, depending on how much you screw it) If you went into the jaxx, just before the school closes and screwed it a little bit, water will flow out the whole night. It may take an hour or two before it comes out of the actual cistern, so nobody would know until the next morning, by which time, the damage would be done.:p Open up your own toilet at home to see what I'm on about.

    not terribly funny.

    i got a roll of magnesium tape and wrapped it around all the trees that kind of form a walkway near our school, and lit it up. Great flare of bright light just dashed down the avenue for a split second

    Where would you get magnesium tape that long?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,946 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    Indeed and would you not have to sand a hell of a lot of it in order to keep the flare going fully and not being stopped by the MgO already formed on the tape?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,327 ✭✭✭NeoSlicerZ


    *In Troy McClure voice*
    Does your school have a septic tank?
    If so, throw 2 sticks of potassium down the toilet today! and watch all the **** blowing up

    lol. You've been watching too much tv. Mg doesn't burn that easily and the whole roll certainly wouldn't go up in a split second.

    It's a sad, sad day when leaving certs resort to fantasing about magnesium tape. Perhaps you should lay off the chemistry revision for awhile?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Healio


    all those quetioning the dishwasher tabs, you have to put the fairy and the tabs then the whole thing fuzzes up.

    as for our school we have a clamper to clamo the principal and a stripper booked for the vice principal, for when she does the final speech.

    others we have planned are the natural locked gates, eggs and flour, water. another one is get old record sleeves, take out the record, then fill the sleeve with shaving foam, go into a toilet, place open side under door facing the victim and stamp on the back.

    we couldnt get hold of sheep but wer writin something in the grass with weed killer, and building a pyrimid with all the desks in our gym/sports hall


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭subway_ie

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    No exaggeration here, brand spanking new roll, courtesy of the chemistry store room. Maybe not a split second, but quick enough. was well pleased.
