Cool shit that happens at school.
I have been inspired by one of my recent plans for direct action protest against a certain bastard to create this thread. What are you cool experiences of school? Gang war, terrorism, drug deals, buying Playboy from your Math teacher, anything.

My French teacher's completely insane, I think he wants to get himself fired. This morning when we were supposedly learning French grammar he started talking about how he hates the Deputy Head and how she was trying to teach him to talk in an "Orcadian" dialect and how she resembles a bread-and-butter pudding. He also told as a story about the time he got in trouble for writing on a kid's report card that they were "fairly shite" at French (his exact wording), and that the management team explained to the parents that "he's a foreigner, he doesn't know what he's saying". He must think of himself as like the male Jean Brodie or something.
Yeah, not so much cool shit happens around these parts.

After graduation, I used to get packs of Marlboros from K-Mart for less than $2.50 a pack, and then go to the high school at lunch and sell them for $5 a pack. More than 100% profit! Hooray, supply & demand!

A few years ago some seniors boobytrapped the panes of the ceiling. Now everytime the janitors need to change a light, soda cans, textbooks, or dirty gym clothes fall from the sky...

The only cool thing that happens at school is that the Janitor listens to Alien Sex Fiend on his Ipod. But that's about it really.

We put someone in the ceiling (lured him up there with empty promises) and left him there till he promised to fuck off and let us use the computers in peace.
The prospect of jumping out of the ceiling onto the pile of upturned chairs with all their pointy legs seemed to teach him the value of letting other people read, talk, study or listen to music in peace.
Note- nonviolent solution. We'd have let him down sooner or later anyway. We didn't force him up there, at no point did anyone attempt to physically harm him. Just contain him.

By the time the school found out who did it, they had already graduated, and so got no punishment it. It was a horrible thing to do.
When I was a freshman I was hit on the head by a three year old open bottle of coke from the ceiling. It had mold in it, and I, being allergic to penicillin, broke out in hives.

It doesn't classify as 'cool' then, damn.
Hopefully on Monday I can put what I'm planning in this thread.

A concierge at my school listens to cool music? And we put ' meatspin ' as the computer teacher's home page.

Apparently when I was still in high school, one of the teachers had entered the cafeteria during a lunch period with a cactus plant and got completely undressed. I wouldn't label it as being cool, but it's uncommon.

My highschool, an American international school in a Muslim country, got a great slew of fake bomb threats over the years. It all started when my sister was about to get drug tested (for which she was going to be positive for the second or third time, and consequently expelled. Really stupid drug rules) and made a desperate plead to her friend to get everyone out of the school before it happened. Her awesome friend, an Egyptian with a great accent, called the first bomb threat in with expert realism. Everyone was convinced, the bomb squad was called, and after being evacuated we all got to go home early. Awesome day for everyone involved, though we were a tad disappointed not getting to see the school crumble in a ball of flames.
That first time was when I was in 8th grade. Every year after that we'd get another bomb threat (or two, or three), all copycats, often around exam time. Massive investigations went into every one of them, chaos and panic ensued with some, and all the while I knew it all started with my dear sister's drug habits.

Lool, that's labeled not as cool, but as a sex offense.

One time I walked into the men's room and saw two kids smoking a joint. I ran away, and made myself wait till I got home because I didn't want to get the drugs in me.
Boy, was I awesome back then.

Our bomb threats were a bit less fun, mainly because they always seemed to happen in the winter and so we would have to sit out in the football stadium till the bomb squad had swept the building...mind you the bomb squad was coming from about half an hour away so we had to sit on our asses for a while.
On the plus side most of the teachers were pretty cool, and the old principle would make skanky looking girls who broke the dress code wear a trash bag all day (mind you he wasn't a hard ass about it and our dress code was pretty lenient so the girls really did look like turbo sluts). That guy was so well loved that when he died even though he was retired for about a year they held two memorial services, one of which was specifically for the students, I think about 3,000 of us went.

Nothing really happens, just the usual small town school drama. Wanna be gangsters trying to act hardcore, students complaining about teachers "abusing" their authority, the "fun" stuff.

This happened at a call center I used to work at, really all it was was people just leaving bomb threat notes around so that we could get evacuated and miss out on an hour of work.
I think the coolest thing we did in highschool was stick gummy bears to the ceiling in grade 8, they are still there to this day. Actually in grade twelve one of them fell and shattered.
We did occasionally walk out of the school in protest of something or other, but normally it was more in the spirit of wanting to skip off rather than the actual cause. The stupidest reasons were a few times it was because a student found out they had scabies, and a lot of people walked out because apparently they were afraid they were going to get it. The most worthy cause was when there was a huge strike province wide, a lot of our school's office secreties and custodians were members of NAPE, so we went out in the snow with them one day to show our support. Normally thought it was a very sadly apathetic bunch, me and a friend were always trying to get activist groups going, most notably Students For A Free Tibet, but aside from agreeing to sign whatever petitions we had no one cared, we had three members including myself. Most people never even heard of Tibet before.

We have art shows and poetry readings once a month, and ridiculously frequent fire drills. Just because we are in California does not mean we will spontaneously combust. I was at school early the other day to get my Latin homework done, and the fire bell rang. I was forced to go out to the soccer field even though I didn't have a first period. Obviously I didn't get my homework done. For such a paranoid country, American schools don't get many bomb threats. Though someone did attempt to light the school on fire last year. Somewhat tellingly of the American educational system, the boy attempted to start the blaze on the side of the one remaining brick building on campus. He failed (of course) but it got us all out of school for the rest of the week while they interrogated people.

One time, I'm 90% sure a reasonably young and hot teacher was flirting with me. I think she fluttered her eyelashes a little while touching my arm and telling me I was her best student. She used to wear the hottest high heels.
That's about the coolest experience I ever had at school, most of it sucked.

How people react to well-known fearness and unknown fearness ?
Set them up with the situation 'victims' know what would happen and the one that completely lost.
We moved Jesus statue off and have one guy dress like him.
See what would people do if the guy move or something pretty much 'alive'.
The result didn't tell a thing. Not quite impressive.
