    THE black kid brought a gun to school to shoot his girlfriend for breaking up with him. That really helped to reduce racial stereotypes.

    That was me. Girlfriend and I got pregnant when I was 15 and again at 17. Kept both and got a job. Studied hard and graduated 19th in my class with honors. Ton of negativity from school staff and loss of friends which is still hard to let go of. We did marry the fall after I graduated and after years of poverty things have slowly gotten more stable.

    One of my classmates did the Hitler salute and exclaimed “Heil Hitler” - an expression which is (rightfully) penalized in Germany, where I live.

    The guy was a son of our local police officer.

    He didn’t got expelled, but he had a very stern talk with our school director. I presume that it was made clear to him that if this ever happens again, he’s out. From what I heard last, in the last few years he was really ashamed of what he did when he was younger. I sincerely hope he is doing okay now - he got into the police, and people like him who recognize that being right isn’t cool are needed.

    Coincidentally my school is in Dessau; our city is well-known for producing Zyklon B, a lethal gas used in KZs across Germany, and a “case of sudden self-igniting” of a migrant called Oury Jalloh in a police cell. Obviously all the camera footage of that cell randomly broke down, there was blood found in the dining room and the guy didn’t have anything to lit himself on fire with. But that all obviously is just a coincidence ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Not a good city to do the Hitlers salute in (if there ever was any, which - surprise - doesn’t), tbh.

      I think there’s one city where a Hitler salute would be “good”: Atlantis.

      1. Hitler himself fetishized the myth
      2. Whoever does the salute would drown and disappear.

    Remember a story a teacher told the class where it looked like a student had fallen asleep so she got her friend to try to wake her up but then a pool of blood starting leaking out of her arms

    Turns out she had a nose bleed and went unconscious after trying to hide said nose bleed instead of telling the teacher

    Australia btw

    A day before I got in a guy set fire to the trash in the chapel. So I befriended him immediately!

    Some guy peed in a handdryer. Which is weird but even weirder was that the principal did a 15 min sprach about how the perpetrator has mental problems and needs to seek help. It was really funny.

    So one day a friend of mine came over when we were 14, around 25 years ago. He had a piece of newspaper with him and said : check this shit out. It was a big article about a teacher that had a “relationship” with a student. He made me read the whole thing and it was clearer and clearer that it was our school at the time. Not only that, it was also his girlfriend involved. It was super odd. She was like 13 and he was around 60. I don’t really remember the details, but it was a lot of love letters being sent back and forward.

    I thought this would be the biggest bombshell in the history of bombshells and could only imagine what monday at school would be like. Long story short, she moved away like IMMEDIATELY, and i have no idea whatever happened to the teacher, but as far as i remember nothing really except that he became a teacher at another school, and no one really ever talked about it, but everyone knew. It was quite bizarre

    Not my school, but one nearby. It smelled like gas in chemistry class and some idiot student thought it would be a good joke to flick a lighter. There actually was a gas leak and he set it on fire, injuring himself and a bunch of classmates. I don’t remember if anyone died.

    I heard some stuff that was worse happened after I left (girl brought a knife in her bra, someone turned on the gas in the chem lab) but during my time was the Ketchup Incident.

    I guess the lunch monitors felt that students were taking too much Ketchup at lunch and “wasting” it, so they started monitoring it - two pumps, no more. Well, the guy I had a crush on (funny cool rebel type, in a band, all that) decided to bring Ketchup to school to share. He got in school suspension for some amount of time, and there were kids caring signs, and I remember a few times chanting, “Free (guy’s name)”. He became a folk hero of the oppressed student. They eventually reinstated full Ketchup privileges, and it was all because of him. At least, that’s how I remember it.

    A few years later, dumb ass senior boys glued the sports trophies to the floor of the gym and got in huge trouble.

    We were no longer permitted to go on excursions to the local bird sanctuary because some students derailed the train that runs through the park.

    Kid drank thallium rat poison, in an attempt to commit suicide. Thing is, thallium doesn’t kill you, it just makes you vomit a LOT. So they had to evacuate the classroom because there was a bunch of thallium and vomit everywhere.

    The best part is we weren’t allowed to leave for 2 hours, because this happened at like 10 and they still wanted the day to count for the school year.

      It’s striking to me to know that I was the kind of kid who could have easily ended up in a headline like this. I was not very impeccable with my word at that age, to put it mildly.

    Two girls had beef the first year the school opened. Don’t know if they were fighting over some guy or what, but one cited the other at a bridge downtown. When the other girl got there there was a huge fight, so one girl pulled out a knife and stabbed her in the neck. The victim survived and the other went to jail and we never saw either of them again.
