Boy glues self to bed to avoid school

ztoical

story here

Creative but if he really wanted to stay off school he should have glue his whole body to the bed

Anyone try anything similar to get off school or work?

I used to be very stealth like and put lots of effort it , change of clothes , know exact timings of everyone going/coming in house , perfected mother and fathers hand writing for notes .... then i got lazy and just started locking my bedroom door , once parents where used to that (used excuse that i wanted to keep little brother out) then it was a case of locking door from inside and staying in bed.

Sometimes I hope that the bus crashes on the way to work. I'd welcome a few minor injuries if it meant a day or two in bed watching cartoons. I'm 23. Oh boy.

I used to sometimes lock myself in the jacks to avoid going to primary school.

And now that I'm in college things have changed, I go every day but just don't bother with attending lectures... I'm screwed!

Teenage boys gluing themselves to their beds is hardly a new phenomenon ... don't think it ever earned me time off school, though!

Next: teacher glues boy to desk as detention.

whenever my firends are sick and dont feel like coming out im always the one who volunteers to go up and hang around with them for a while.

my secret hope is that i'll catch their illness and it will get me a few days off.what im startin to worry about is hanging around with a few with different ilnesses.is it possible for me to catch them all and create some sort of super virus??? lol

That feeling never goes away (crosses fingers). If theres ever a re-run of 'kolchak the night stalker' on daytime telly I am calling in sick for a month. The only reason I have not done that so far is to avoid judge judy.

Jesus, all the effort of pretending to be stuck to the bed while those people try pry you off, FFS you think he'd just remember to use a sock like most lads rather than risk his mum walking in when he has a handful and having to slap it down on the nearest surface before she can see.:D

saying you have the runs with absolutly no shame is my prefered method of getting off things

I did try glueing myself to a wall before. It didn't work.

I once felt like a day in bed watching cartoons when I was around six or seven. Anyone know the Funday Times? Kiddie freebee in the Sunday times. It once had a School Survival Kit which included fake spots. Basically just dark red paper dots. I cut these out and glued them on my face pretending to have measles. My mother was highly amused as I'd already had the MMR shot a couple of years before. She humoured me for a bit although I was so bloody amateurish about it.

She mentioned offhand that they might be spreading to my chest so I stuck two little spots onto my chest and all. I had hid the scissors and glue under my rug which she duely found.

She brought me into school and had agood laugh about it with my teacher who gave me an ear bashing in front of all the other little tykes.

I put my forehead against the radiator plenty of times for a "temperature", also a bit of white make-up to make myself look pale!!!

I overheard some teachers talking about this in the staff room today. One of them was saying that there are times that she wished she could stay in bed, but wouldn't go that far. This was followed by a silence. I don't think many agreed with her!

I only ever got off school twice, both times for valid reasons. I think I missed out.

:eek: how is that even possible?

i remember when i was 5 though i flatly refused to go in one day. they eventually tricked me into going in ( i was only 5, it wasn't hard. i cant even remember what was promised to me). i was really pissed off for all of 30 minutes too.

by the end of my school days i had gotten so fed up of the place i just took days off at random. i was stubborn enough no one ever really bothered with me. even the teachers were happier. i think i had gone about 4 to 6 weeks without having set foot in my school (even skipped the graduation thingy) by the time the leaving cert came around, even then i don't think i had spent a full day in there since after the mocks.

looking back it's amazing to think I'm a third level student now. oh well.

i wholeheartedly commend that lads efforts. still, he should have glued a bit more of himself.

if i felt like a day i got dressed in the uniform and headed out as normal but i never arrived to my destonation, used to have some fishing gear stashed away in de Jacko, LOL, and spend the whole day fishing.
Anyone else here know "de Jacko"??

Well I was sick last week for the first time in about 12 years (since I was ten), and my mother never really believed me if I pretended so I didn't bother. (In fact, when I told her I was sick last week she told me I wasn't until I showed her the prescription for antibiotics!) She was always very disappointed that I missed those two days, which were for Confirmations I think.
