    Classmate secretly ate 3 packets of chivers jelly from his schoolbag

    Remember Wham bars?

    Friends of mine used to have competitions to see how many they could stuff in their mouth in the middle of class without getting caught. Obviously if you’re asked a question with three of them cementing your jaws together, you’re pretty goosed.

    Bart Simpson, in that episode of the Simpsons where he does the exact same thing. Season 2 Episode 14. :rolleyes:

    Must have been post watershed if he wrote “c***s” in the episode.

    Or, maybe he didn’t do the “exact same thing”. So take your smug little rollyeyes and see will they fit up your hole.

    Get used to it guys. Language changes. Oxford English Dictionary has recognised this usage since 2011.

    They’ve little to be at.

    I recall an incident from 2nd year. We had a surprise visit from a priest in Religion Class one day. I think this particular priest must have been a regional RE coordinator or something because I remember he came across as quite surly, taking no attitude from anyone.

    Anyway in a previous religion class I was bored so I doodled a drawing of a cowboy with 2 massive dongs holding them like guns shooting jizz everywhere while shouting "YEE HAWW!" at the back of my Religion copy. The priest decided to go around to each person one by one to inspect our copies. I was terrified that he would spot the drawing on my copy and that I would be suspended or expelled as I didn't have the time to scribble it out or erase it. He picked up my copy, flicked through the pages and put it back down, moving onto the guy behind me. Myself and my friend just looked at each other and I breathed a huge sigh of relief.

    Also during our Xmas exams that year I was having a torrid time throughout the German exam. My nerves got the better of me and brought about a rather bad spell of flatulence. There was a hole at the back of the plastic chair so I just silently farted through that for the entire exam. My poor classmate behind me got the full brunt of it and he gave me a right bollocking over it after the exam. The same nervous spell of flatulence came upon me one day when our Maths teacher announced a surprise exam and I just let off an absolute thunder ripper in the middle of the class. I just shrivelled up in embarrassment while the class laughed a d the teacher looked at me in disgust. Luckily she called off the exam until the following week so my nerves returned to normal.

    Yeh that's bollox, if he was a year behind that makes him 11 max. No 11 year old could do that to a 19 year old unless he was about 20 stone and sat on him.

    Guy in my class in primary school could handle many adults, he was huge and an animal to fight, it's possible nineteen year old might have been small and weak

    There was a guy in my primary school class who was huge. At the age of 12 he was 6ft tall and 16st, he could have easily passed for 18. He was also the reason our class won the 6th class tug o war competition on the school sports day back in 1992 in The Brother's Field in Limerick.

    Back in the old days it was next to impossible to sack a teacher. Short of actually murdering a pupil like, they were almost untouchable.
    I wonder is it still like that nowadays.

    I've older brothers who went to the Christian Brothers secondary in the late 70s. One got a hiding from a teacher so bad that my ma found out. She went berserk, up to the school, and the principal. The principal explained that there was little he could do without a formal complaint, and that as most parents in the school were in the civil service, they didn't want to rock the boat. My dad was not in the service, the complaint went in. Teacher was gone.

    Some great stories, and some grim stories.

    This guy wasn't heavy but was made of iron ,played midfield for under fourteens when he was eleven, terrified the opposition

    Curiously he hardly grew any taller past fourteen

    Went to a country school. In 6th year myself and a few other friends drove to school. One friend of mine drove a jeep and the head teacher asked would he bring benches back over to the girls school across the road (we went to an all boys school). We loaded up the benches at 2pm and went across to the girls school. Dropped off the benches. one of the lads is fairly hairy so before leaving we decided we'd do an honorary lap of the school with the other friend sticking his hairy árse out the window at anyone who could see it.

    Another thing we used do was pick up 1st and 2nd years and leave them at the other side of town so they'd be late coming back from lunch.

    On wet days a pool of water would gather just before the turn into the school. We'd drive through it at speed and try soak as my people as possible. After 1 or 2 tries a lot of them would get wise to what's going on.

    So you and your friends picked up young boys at lunch ? Got it
