Oh, you've got no idea. This is the one that invents at least one new dumb rule per month, only to reppeal it once she's realised that none of the teachers have bothered enforcing it.

Our High School has had about 8 or 10 senior skip days every year, plus everyone decides to do something stupid.

The stupid things often come from management. Like standing on "Tellytubby hill" (as the students know it) and eating as many bananas as possible, or staying until 12 PM with parents permission playing dodgeball in the central courtyard for charity. Today was just weird. My english teacher has said that the staff uniform directives are that staff arent allowed to wear Red shoes, open toed sandels, red socks, and socks with sandals.

Um...
ok, here's the stupidest thing in our school, one teacher decided she wanted to use an online site to have all the students turn their research papers in, (the research paper is the biggest grade of the year) the school has to pay like 300 dollars or something, it rarely works, which she blames the students when the site is down, she says they should have turned it in earlier, it was down for a month and a half. And then, even worse, she also wants a hard copy, plus she tests them for plagerism, which is fine and dandy, but one of my friends got it to say it was 17% plagerized, she had a quote from wikipedia that didn't need to be cited, and another friend got 43% plagerized, he copy and pasted most of his paper, and got away with it. That I think is stupid.

I've been taking a battery of psychiatric tests for my court case lately. What we've determined so far is that I'm not a pedofile, not a serial killer, not a cereal killer either, and would be happy to fix a broken door latch. 800 questions to determine that. Charming.

It took 800 questions, they must be really stupid psychiatrists there, I have no degree and can find all that out in about 30 or 40 questions, plus a lot more information... :roll:

Thats not that bad. One year, some students decided to steal the toilet seats.

Reminds me of pledging my fraternity. We had a scavenger hunt with one particular item on the list being "20 toilet seat covers" Our stupid pledge selves, unaware that they meant those paper toilet covers for use in public restrooms, went and took all the toilet seats out of 2 of the class buildings. The next day, the UConn papers had the article "Large number of toilet seats disappear from Monteith and Arjona Halls, police have no leads" Ooops. We later disposed of them in the pond.

Smart place to put them, the pond, lol. I hope no one does anything stupid this year, that gets annoying when they can't make any good pranks.
