So are school is really strict and last year they had some really bad vandalism done to the scholl so this year they are really cracking down and said that we are not supposed to do a prank(they usually would have had a teacher let us in the building and turn off the alarm but after the vandalism…we all get treated like vandals)
so my friends and i have decided to do a barbecue tailgate type thing in the parking lot after we have gradation practice and are all out of school but while the underclassmen still have class we figured this was harmless enough and would be taking lighthearted
what do you guys think and is there any advise from the older folks about how not to get into trouble for this
My senior year of high school, there were rumors that someone who lived on a farm was plotting to hijack a cow from a pasture next to my school, walk it up the stairs to the second floor of the building. Sounds lame, until you realize cows REALLY don’t like going down stairs, but go up them fairly easily.
It never happened.
Instead, an hour before school ended, everyone who was “in on it” suddenly got up from their seats in the middle of class, and ran and jumped in the swimming pool. There were kids from lots of classes all over the school. It was pretty cool.
Get hold of 3 sheep. Number them 1,2 and 4. Release them in your school grounds. Watch as the three sheep are caught fairly easily, and the search goes on for hours for the elusive sheep number 3.
If you’re going to have BBQs they might have issues about fire safety, have some extinguishers around the place if possible to show that you atleast considered this point.
my friend had a genius prank for last year but we never did it. his plan was to take all the desks out of the class rooms and stack them in a random piled mess in the gym. then we would put full cups of water all over the desks. with this prank, the staff is highly inconvenienced but nothing is vandalized.
why is it that big of deal. you can still understand exactly what they are saying. people are just anal and love being anal and will therefore continue to be anal. society needs to learn to relax and focus on real problems in the world. also, no way of talking is better than another. thats like saying chinese is better than russian and anyone who speaks russian is stupid. i would like to see less criticism on the forums instead of all the complaining about small little details that don’t do anything to anyone except are convenient to the typer.
I think the grammar error he was pointing out was that you used “are” instead of “our”, but that’s besides the piont!
On our last day of secondary school we used shaving foam to draw a huge comedy penis and write “Class of 2005” on the walls outside (nice and sand stone). Turns out that although shaving foam will come off (of course), it doesn’t happen for quite a while! I recommend this 100%. Even if hosed it leaves a white mark which will stay for a good long while.
some awesome sounding ideas people, but i have some more… not deadly, or against any safety regs. Take a bunch of plastic forks, and stick them all in the lawn. You cant mow over them, and theres nothing to pull em out with, except for by hand. Go to your schools courtyard (if you have one), and get a few thousand forks. Or go and buy a bunch of marshmellows, and throw them on the lawns. They’ll melt next rainfall, and be stuck there for a REALLY long time.
Well, it was a joke, of course. Irresistable really, given the topicality of a school-leaver who appears to be virtually illiterate.
More seriously, posters whose English borders on the unintelligible are likely to be misunderstood, which I think you’ll agree is a bad thing. As for it being the Internet, I feel sorry for those readers for whom English is a second language.
Language is our single most unique feature as a species. Writing is probably the most significant invention of all time. It’s a tragedy to see these things regarded as “anal”. Just my 2p.
It’s really about what you’re used to typing. A couple of years ago, a friend bet me that I couldn’t go one week without typing like “ur skool omg y r u so sile” at some point in our conversation. Literally within that week I made a habit of using punctuation and spelling correctly (I still haven’t figured out the grammar part…) that I still type like that now even a couple years down the road. Now when I try to type all text talk (chat speak?)…it takes me forever to write anything. So I disagree with your “It’s easier…etc.” stuff. It’s all about habit.
I heard that as a goat story, almost posted it; good thing I actually read the thread.
A senior prank should be clever, slightly disruptive, and do no permanent damage. Otherwise skip it, you don’t want to be remembered as the class with the lame prank.
I have an idea. You can hide all the lunch tables! That would be pretty sweet.
(Last year, out of boredom and stupidity I would take a lunch table, fold it up, and roll it into a bathroom on a daily basis. Took around a month or two for me to get caught )
Fill the hallways with full cups of water, completely covering the floor.
To prank a specific teacher, completely turn around their desk and all the student desks, reversing the room.
Regarding grammar online:
When you talk to your friends, type however you want.
When you talk in public, type close enough to proper grammar and punctuation that you can be understood, and your posts aren’t hard to read. Not everyone has an easy time deciphering period-less poorly spelled and symbolized versions of the English language. Lastly, if you do choose to type this way, it makes you look childish and uneducated to use poor grammar and symbolized words ( i.e. “OMG i r such kool plx”). I’ve also heard from people that “trash typing” also makes them lose respect for the offender, and devalues what they have to say, if only on a subconscious level. Don’t like it? Too bad, things are the way they are.
This is very important. More so, you don’t want to be the year that ends (as my brother’s did) with one person in intensive care and three in the police cells.
Another classic: bring agricultural machinery to school, a combine harvester and a couple of big tractors can cause havoc. You don’t need to do anything destructive, just them being there is enough.
Guy I was at uni with painted an enormous male genitalia on the roof of one of their school buildings, it couldn’t be seen from the ground at all but an aerial photograph appeared in The Sun newspaper (a national daily paper). It can be seen on google earth, see this screenshot.
I’m a senior and we are going to have a cookout on the last day. We will probably have rootbeer kegs too. I heard a school did that and the cops were called in to give everyone a breathalyzer.
Hmm… I have a few more, that i didnt share thismorning.
1: buy around 1000 bouncy balls, a bucket of 500 costs maybe $25 online. Either dump em in the halls, or hand em out to students during class transition. Thats a whole school full of kids with superballs, Mayhem? Everyone would be bouncing them the whole day, teachers would take SOO many away from kids.
2: let some chickens loose in a courtyard, some kids did that one year, the janitors had to get bb guns and shoot them.
In random thought to dead birds in the court yard… Weve been having a lot of recent dead birds around our school. We have glass hallways, and there are normally dead birds on the ground near the hallways. Yesterday there was a hawk laying on the ground.
You might be able to (if you have a band, and equipment), go set it up on the school, and start playing during a class (get teacher permission to cut class maybe? just for five minutes or so, if the teachers cool with you about things). If it was me, i’d have a small show in our courtyard. That’d be really fun.
