Tell stories of funny things you did or saw in school.

I saw 2 girls get into a fight over one chewing gum too loudly in class and one kid in elementary school got caught staring up a substtitute teache's skirt while in trouble for something else and being forced to sit in front of the class.

Sorry, no funny stories from school. My school memories are more horror stories.

I was bullied most of my life and literally had no friends half the time but I tried to focus on the funny moments to try to forget about the bad.

1. I broke the pencil sharpener sharpening crayons.

2. I tried flooding the toilet. It didn’t work.

3. I accidentally made a mess of my schools library in kindergarten. The librarian saw the mess and started yelling at everyone. No one knew it was me. The next week we had to have a lesson on how to behave in the library.

I’m sure that there are more.

I had a ditzy friend who asked me to cut a shelf for her locker with the dimensions of 8x10". My dad likes to do a lot of woodwork so we cut a shelf for her. When I gave it to her she was quite distraught saying it didn't fit because it was 10x8 and not 8x10. I rotated it a quarter turn and it went right in and she thought I was a miracle worker.
Thanks for this!

I am in the school's jazz band, so its a small class. maybe a dozen kids and my director is a savage. I'm not sure what led to this but I have seen him pursue kids with a yardstick and I am pretty certain he has actually hit a few people, most of it was his laughing at them genuinely running getting scared.. it was all in good fun tho so it doesn't leave the band hall.
Thanks for this!

Well nothing exceptional, just kid stuff. In my country, class always stays in the same room all day long (except for PE and IT lessons). It's teachers who are in a different class every hour.

So we had many funny moments during the breaks in our classroom. Boys throwing out plastic bags with water out of the window, a boy throwing his slipper at the lamp and it fell on my friends shoulder (she wasn't injured). Boys having large fights almost every break (it wasn't anything serious or aggressive, most of them enjoyed it like a game and no one was ever injured).

Then of course when we tried to make our teachers tell stories about something instead of teaching. We had a few teachers who could be easily distracted. So i had a few classmates who always asked silly questions completely unrelated to the subject and the teachers spent the rest of the lesson talking so we didn't have to do exercises. Our physics teacher was especially into UFOs and conspiracy theories. So someone often asked him about the latest crop circles and that meant the official lesson was over 😂😂😂 we could put our calculators away.

They were nice times.

I was often in trouble, and that never really bothered me. I was probably the rowdiest girl in my class, a little Tom-boyish, and was never afraid to say what I wanted.

I think it was third grade (8 years old ?) when my teacher asked me where my homework was, and if I did it. I said it was somewhere in my desk. She yelled at me to find it, so I superficially rooted through my messy desk, which was full of papers. She then became furious and pushed me aside and literally threw my desk onto the floor, crashing, so that all of the many papers flew all over the place. Then she asked me which was my cubby. I pointed to it, and then she threw all of the papers out onto the floor, while roaring. It was a mess! It was like she was possessed by a devil.

I remember just looking at that teacher in astonishment. She ordered me to go to the principal's office. So I went...and I walked into his office and waged a formal complaint against her, telling him about her frequent violence (and screaming), about how she made the most popular boys in the class cry a lot, and how all of the students (except me) were afraid of her.

The principal listened to all of the above, silently. He then looked me in the eye and asked "Did you actually do the homework?"

"No, I didn't!" I responded.

"Well...What I'd like you to do is to go back and ask Mrs. X what she'd like you to do to make up for the homework. You can now go back."

I guess I was satisfied with what he suggested, but really hoped the teacher would get into big trouble. I had it in for her, and she deserved it. I do know that when I returned, she asked me what the principal said, and I told her. I don't recall what she asked me to do in recompense, other than to pick up the papers strewn all around.

I thought homework was optional, up until the event above. Maybe I did start doing a little more of it. My parents never asked about it. They weren't the types to care.

That same teacher often sent me out into the hallway when I was "bad". I never found that to be a punishment at all, because I'd go out and just dance down the hallways, to imagined music. Time would pass in this joyful reverie, until she'd open the door for me to return. She knew the hallway never taught me a lesson. Nor did being put in the corner, because I liked being there, especially if it was behind the coat and cubby section. There I would hide as if in a fort...daydreaming.

I actually don't remember her being as violent, or even screaming, after the above incident. Maybe the principal did say something to her about her behavior.

no but i had no friends as well. my stories were things i overheard or saw, just listen sometimes. you'll be surprised what you'll hear. and that's obviously not funny but like, the dude who called me a suicidal satanist for listening to metal and wearing black even though I had a massive cross on my shirt and was raised, Christian was pretty funny lol such creative nicknames, bullies weren't discreet with me, they had no shame and straight-up would just say my name.

perhaps my favorite one is sitting in assembly and the head master telling the school that he wants some people to come up to the front and tell the school what they are greatful.

so: their's all the usual ones- greatful for the teachers, the friends, the lessons, the experiences,

then rebecca (a kid who was in my class), walked right to the front and said- my favorite thing about school is that eventually I'm going to get out of here!

it stopped assembly because everyone was laughing so hard and the headmaster was shocked

my music teacher smelled terrible, and she was just the start

I always think of the teachers who shouldn't have been teachers. I live in a relatively small town and some teachers were awful at teaching and/or dealing with kids. one P.E teacher yelled at me hardcore for walking on a balance beam ( a sturdy little beam 12 inches high max with mats beneath in case we fall) without her holding my hand... I was 14. she gave me a panic attack because I was dealing with a lot of problems at home as well and she yelled at me about "this generation of snowflakes" while I was scratching my hand till I almost bled trying not to cry in public. I don't do that anymore luckily. I have too many scars on my hand from hitting my hand on the oven while baking as-is lol. she should have stayed retired. she was so mean.

on a lighter note, my government teacher asked "is it against the 1st amendment to teach atheism and homosexuality? the whole class internally facepalmed. yes, it is, atheism is a religion ( she said it was a lack of religion so it wasn't valid) and how in the world do you "teach homosexuality"?

taking a book from the library, which was clearly not mine, taking off the label, and making it mine by replacing it with my name (it eventually fell apart)

also snapping the geography cd so that none of my class could learn about rainforests

made me quite popular because no one liked learning about them

I was known as the good kid in school. One day, I had to finish some assignments, so I ended up skipping my Spanish class to do them. My friends from the class teased me about it, because they couldn't believe a goody two shoes like me would ever skip class. It was funny.

one of my teachers (when I was very little) had a goody draw, and the idea was, do something good in class, get something out the draw (usually candy)

one day I just raded the goody draw and baught bags of candy home for at least 5/6 nights

funny thing is this teacher never noticed, because even though he filled it up every week, he never checked to see what was their

I had a friend at school that liked to do prank phone calls (and where possible, involve me too)

we got in trouble a few times from the resulting calls (mainly from his mother)

when I got older I realised that actually I didn't like him much and poured water on all his belongings

In 4th grade I went to school not feeling good. I tried to ignore it since I often got anxiety stomach aches. I ate some Campbell’s tomato soup and an ice cream bar for lunch. Around 1 I suddenly said to the teacher “I don’t feel good!” I then projectile vomited all over myself, the garbage can, and the floor. The teacher was so freaked out. I spent the next 2 days at home sick.

I also threw up at school in 5th grade. I felt sick when I got there and tried to push through. Around 10 or so I made a scene and said to the teacher “I don’t feel good” and I think I was about to throw up in the classroom but that teacher was nice and she encouraged me to go to the bathroom. This was in front of the whole class. I then went into the hallway and doubled over and dry heaved onto the janitors shoes. Who said “uh oh! You better go to the bathroom!” Then I went into the bathroom and there was a girl there and I puked and when I came out she was gone. I went to the nurse and overheard the janitor saying there wasn’t any mess and I left for the day. I came back to school the next day but my stomach was still queasy. I made it through the day.
