Horrible things you were called at school

Graces7

Dear Lord what utter cruelty. I was teased a lot and called Aspro for my then surname but we were not cruel like those you have endured,

We had a lad in school called Albert; mentally disabled and with a twisted face, but he was never ridiculed or teased. Teachers used to warn us that if we pulled faces we would end up like Albert.

Such were the 1940s in the rural UK

Oh not in front of him! PLEASE! Albert drifted round the school, simply being looked after in an informal way and frankly he would not have understood that anyway. We all knew who Albert was and looked out for him. No idea how old he was or what happened to him. Those were less formal days and no one would have made fun of him.

WHIP IT!

Can people just f*ck off with the "Oh my goodness, how could you say that to a child??" bullsh*t?! What exactly were you expecting to find in a thread entitled 'horrible things you were called at school'??

Kids are cruel. Years ago they were crueller. Hence the stories. These days, kids get a sidewards look from a classmate and it's off to therapy with them.

Less faux outrage, a lot less lectures - more hilarious stories of kids with dead parents, please...

Another young lad called Chernobyl because he was such a disaster. Thicko could barely spell. Dropped out before the inter-cert. Even a couple of the teachers called him Chernobyl!

Sounds like you were one of these bullies

not from me, I genuinely find some of these stories heartbreaking!

the title didn't say 'funny things you were called'. it says HORRIBLE things.
I know they are being said by kids, but they are being said TO kids too. I don't find much humour in that

WHIP IT!

That 'Bruce' story was some funny sh*t

One of the weirder ones was that we used to spell our names backward.

Only one ever worked.

There was another guy in our class in secondary who had a massive pair of man tits.

His name "dolly" dempsey

I was bullied for a few years, but the cunts didn't have the decency to give me a nickname. Disappointing. There was a Japanese exchange student in my class for a while and everyone called him 'Horse' because his name sounded like 'Shergar'. And there was a female teacher called 'Lurch' because she was at least 6ft and had short hair. Oh and people called the vice principal 'Schlong' because his first name was Dick.

I was called goofy and then other names like ginger, redser, carrot top all cos of my hair colour. Goofy was the only one that bothered. Got braces when 24 and even now I still don’t really smile in photos......it doesn’t come naturally/easily to me cos I never smiled from a young age but I love my straight teeth 😬

Johnny Tuesday because I missed 2 Monday’s in a row, once.
Also called stretch, because I was quite tall whilst quite young.

These are both cool nicknames

Went to School with a fella called Toffee, his surname was Highland. I also played football with a chap called sewerage as he had terrible acne and his face was like a scutter fart.
