In school did you...

Our old Science teacher used to have the dubious pleasure of my class shouting "Happy Birthday" at her (and occasionally letting off poppers / throwing all contents of pencil cases in the air, banging desks, stomping feet etc. this happened every day for a year and a half. then we started moving all the lockers at the back of the class up about two feet and seeing how many people could hide behind them before we got rumbled. The poor woman was what you could call weak willed, so there were only ten lads left sitting down before she let on that she knew. I hope she isnt in an asylum now. I really do.
PS. I have a B. Sc. and I still had to check three times to see if I spelled science correctly in this post.

Throwing peoples bags out the windows when you were in a second floor classroom

used to have a really small maths teacher and we used to always put his calculator, books and pens at the top of the whiteboard where he couldnt reach

when someone was swinging kicking the chair so they fell

switching places when the teacher wasnt looking

drawing penises on everyones books

throwing stuff

penis game where you after say penis louder than the last person

thumbtacks on peoples chairs

spraying water on peopes chairs just as they were about to sit down

asking the teacher ridiculous unreleated questions

over laughing for about 5 minutes whenever a teacher made a joke

pretending to be foreign when a substitute came in

fart gas cans

getting the whole class to start humming a tune

whenever someone asked something stupid or did something stupid everyone giving him loads ****in pencils,rulers and copys at him

so many, good times school

kicking out the metal sides of chairs so that they'd be jammed under the desks and couldn't get out (works great if someone comes in late and their chair is wedged in under the desk

wrapping a full roll of masking tape around someone's bag and sticking it to the desk.

getting a portable loudspeaker, placing it out a window and shouting random stuff....

locking the room at lunchtime and pretending not to hear anyone at the door

placing an empty bottle upright in a really small corridor. Line the corridor with about 20 people each side, all stand still and silent and when someone comes along and knocks the bottle, start beating them

throwing wet tissue paper at people from high vantage points.

turning chairs and desks around in opposit direction to whiteboard during class.

shouting out random bad language when there was a sub teacher in. Someone would then whisper to the teacher, that the guy has tourette's

throwing the retort stands out the window during science class

Piste · 24-10-2006 09:57PM

Haha you're all demons! In second year we used to play the bollocks game quite a bit, and also havnig competitions to see who could stay standinmg the longest, it was fun thinking up excuses not to sit down.

In first year German someone once decided that it was the teacher;s birthday, so we all sang happy birthday and some girl presented her with bar of chocolate as a present and the teacher just sat there like "wtf...?"

BlueSpiral · 24-10-2006 10:00PM

Putting naughty pictures up on the back windows of our small school bus so other drivers could have a peek. Oh man, it was hiliarious until someone accidently let them slip out the open window.

And the pumpkin carving day, what a wonderful 2 classes. My friend ended up stuffing 20 pumpkin seeds in his mouth at the same time, running across the room and nearly throwing up in the bin, olny to reply "again again!".

Kolodny · 24-10-2006 10:11PM

Wetting paper towels in the toilets and firing them at walls, windows, ceilings and classmates. Funny until I missed my mate's head and hit the deputy principal in the face with one as she walked past the girls' toilets. Then it was even funnier! (until my mother was informed at least)

bluto63 · 24-10-2006 10:21PM

There was of course the penis game.

Then we always draw willys on each others collar, making sure to do it real gently so they don't notice.

When someone gets up to put something in the bin or to talk to the teacher, take their bag and hide it somewhere in the room, or turn it inside out.

While waiting outside the room for class we all lined up along the sides on the corridor and started pushing everone who walked by.

Hanging someones bag out the window on the second floor, just about hanging on that if they opened the window it would fall out.

Shouting as many body parts as you can out loud for the teacher(I'm sure you know what ones I'm talking about;) )

When the teacher turned around to the board we used to move our desks slowly up into a tight circle around him, getting moved back only to do it al again.

Drawing willys on EVERYTHING possible.

how could i forget bag-inverse? it's great fun!

GerryRyan · 24-10-2006 10:30PM

One of the girls that was in the school 2 years ago had a really old Mini Cooper, really light, could be picked up by about 4-5 lads. Oh the fun we had.

We'd park two cars fairly tight together and turn her car sideways in between them, or just put it in akward places for her to find. Many a lunch break wasted

Naikon · 24-10-2006 10:35PM

Geography classes were never taken seriously.
When people were asked questions like
"name a cereal grown in Ireland", People would reply with "eh...rice krispies sir?"
When the teacher was describing rock formations, people would reply with the usual "would those huge cracks be filled with a clear substance sir?
I cant remember the others, but it was worth it just to see the expression on his face:D

Once in Religion, I had a shoe which would creek loudly when moving the sole.
It drove the R.E teacher demented.
The religion teacher asked me why moses talked to a burning bush, with which i replied "the use of narcotic substances can have strange effects on the mind, dont you agree?" Stuff like that.
That tourettes gag was commen also.
Turning desks and chairs in the west facing direction was commen in R.E

The Subs also called out names like "hugh jass" for instance.
Riots involving tennisballs were quite regular.
A few bangers were blown INSIDE the school on a few occassions aswell.

fish-head · 24-10-2006 10:35PM

Mexican bollocks was a one of my favourites, I'm sure you can guess what it entails..

bright · 24-10-2006 10:39PM

breaking into a round of applause everytime our irish teacher turned around to write something on the board.-she got sick of it quickly...

if a teacher drops a pen....god help them -''wheey!'' ''knock on!''

smemon · 24-10-2006 10:57PM

how could if forget...

the best one is when someone comes to the door or the teacher has to leave for a few mins and leaves the class unattended.

AOOOOOOOOOOOOO!BANG BANG BANG YEOOOOOOOOOO!!... basically screaming and shouting, going mad, banging tables, kicking radiators, throwing anything to hand...

and then everything turns to silence as soon as the teacher comes back

also, the mexican wave was a hit in our class

Every so soften we would all do a quick wave.

and another one... anytime an opportunity would arise, say if in english we had to make storm noises when acting out King Lear... everyone would go OTT and start going mad with stupid sounds like sheep 'baaaaa's etc...

Splinter · 24-10-2006 11:08PM

we had this horrible tendency to borrow phones and change them so they said silent but infact were set to as loud as possible...then ring them mid class, drop this one teacher nuts...eveentually she started making us hand in phones..so we all bought the foam doggy toys...we had to rip one in half and burn it cause she thought it was one of them transforming phones...

phantom_lord · 25-10-2006 12:01AM

i miss school

I remember at one stage everyone used to have an elastic band and shoot papers at people. In a class as soon as the teacher would turn their back the room was filled with projectiles, and then the teacher would turn back and it was as if nothing had happened...

the_syco · 25-10-2006 12:27AM

One of the funnist things: ask the teacher could you go to the toilet, go out of the classroom, run around, and walk by the window. Class fun. Esp trying to get back in when they installed the automatic locking doors (Colaiste Chairain). Esp when someone saw you go out locked it:mad::D

redzerdrog · 25-10-2006 12:42AM

while the teacher was talking to someone outside the classroom door the whole class climbed out the window we tought it was hillarious at the time but got in serious trouble....

What about substitute teachers passing around the roll sheet for us to write our names on?

"eh....John Smith, thats you? Paddy Enright, right you so....eh....Tupac Shakur?...which one of ye young lads is Tupac?":D

Somehow it was only when the substitutes were in did Tupac and his mates Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Johhny Knoxville and all the rest show up.

Yeah we still do that I remember sitting up the front of one of the classes with my mates and the sub teacher came in and handed me a sheet and said write down who is in. That day we had Ray Charles, Homer Sexual, tupac shakur, Biggie Smalls, Puff Daddy, Puff the magic dragon, Brad pitt and Stevie Wonder. Their was a few more just cant think of them. Great laugh we had that day.

greenkittie · 25-10-2006 09:47AM

Now i see why my parents always tell me never to be a teacher. Children are horrible, teachers are people too, i can't believe you people still haven't got over this dehumanized view of them. I went to a posh girls school and nothing like that ever happened, we all got on with the teachers well and it was a really nice relaxed environment.

Ashamed to say that someone in my classed p*ssed in the wastepaper basket in class once (rough school).

We did the humming thing too in my school... It must be universal.

Other stuff we used to do was take turns to shout totally random words, insisting on calling teachers by their first names and every time we answered a question make sure to drop their name in, throwing a ball around the class every time a teacher turned to write something on the black board, trying to get paper spit-balls into the Super Ser gas heaters in the prefab block and more I can't think of.

Our worst stunt (which we did regularly) was in 6th year. Once a week we had double French, one class either side of the morning break. Our teacher was more interested in making sure he got his cup of coffee, than making sure we left the room. This meant that we had the classroom to ourselves for twenty minutes. It all started innocently enough, rearranging the desks and the like. Then we got into the habit of kidnapping a first year (not usually the same one) and making him sit at a desk at the back to see if our teacher would notice on his return. Then we took to tying them to the desk. One day, the teacher left his locker open and we tied up a first year in the locker. He didn't make a sound for the whole class and we left at the end of the class saying nothing. Our teacher told us the next day that he only discovered the lad when he went to get something from the locker at lunchtime.

I'll see you all in hell!

Dyr · 25-10-2006 10:47AM

Be interesting to see if anyone here spots the school...

One of our secondary teachers was nicknamed (among other things) "burt". He was a bit of a gargler and often fell asleep in class or nipped out for a quick smoke etc, generally not the brightest muinteoir ye'd meet

Anywhoo anytime the whole school was assembled for some important notice or some such guff, a clatter of teachers would be present. If burt was among them a student would inevitaby exclaim "burt!" in a muppets voice. Another exclamation would follow and another until the burt call had spread thru the assembly like wildfire. Teachers would be dispatched into the ranks to quell the disturbances but as soon as it quietened down another squawk of burt would ring out and we'd be back to square one.

Meanwhile Burt would stand there looking somewhat sheepish

greenkittie · 25-10-2006 10:53AM

You people seriously sicken me, i can't believe you think its funny that you acted in this manner. Imagine if you had to face that happening from the people you work with every day in work, would it be funny then?

ryaner77 · 25-10-2006 11:03AM

In art class when the teacher was doing her rounds and helping people with their paintings we would flick little lines of paint down her back. It was beautiful , she was so paronoid that she would try and catch us by turning around really quickly and the whole class would burst out laughing !!!! We ruined so many jumpers on that poor woman .

azezil · 25-10-2006 11:16AM

Our poor geography teacher used to be torchered, guys used to openly taking the piss out of him in class, the final straw was when we took all the starters out of all the lights, he cried... I felt bad about it at the time, but now I just laugh! hahahaha pussy

Hahaha we used to do that too, used to crack the teachers up, they would nearly be in tears. we used to say "Oooooooh yaaaaaaaaaaa" every time they'd explain something, then someone else would do it.

In art class I used to draw dirty pictures on other people's paper when they'd go to the toilet

I was pretty good at art. i used to use a really dark pencil or pen so they wouldnt be able to erase it fully.

JungleBunny · 25-10-2006 11:43AM

Oh man they are soo funny!

A teacher we had used to like a piggy snorting noise anytime he got really angry and frustrated... of course we would make that noise at him anytime he walked into class or even just down the corridor!
We also used to flick our fountain-pens at his back, so that a huge splatter of ink would go onto his jumper/jacket. He never noticed!

When his classes became too boring or we had just had enough we would just get up and walk out. If he questioned us, the girls would just say that it was that time of month

and he would go bright red and let us go... It was constantly that time of month for a few of us!!!

Of course the bollow game was played whenever we could too

Hmm, looking back we were terrible to that one teacher! But he deserved it! No other teacher got treated liek that!

In school did you...
