Every year this stuff happens on the senior's last day, with different pranks+gags that go too far. First, the seniors put out tents and threw toilet paper all over a small tree. While I was looking at this, and walking at the same time, so I acsidentally tripped and ended out with a bloody knee on the concrete. Next, the seniors made water balloons and threw them all over the inside of the high school building, geting some girls enormus project messed up. Then, one of the seniors pulled the fire alarm, cutting the time we had to take an english test. THEN, every year at the end of the day, ALL of the seniors SCREAM UNCONTROLABLLY and HONK their car horns for 10 MINUTES STRAIT!!! AND, to top it all off, it was BLOODY STINKIN HOT, which resulted in us getting out at 12:45 But it doesn't compare to what they did a few weeks ago, when they took spray paint and painted 208 and marijuana plants all over the high school walls. They had to sand blast the building to get it all off, thus making the desicion to cut the school's budget. I say they should be punished BIG TIME!
RRRGH! How dare high school seniors celebrate their graduation! That's unheard of! If we do not punish these high school seniors, what will the children think?!
It takes taxpayer dollars to undo the damage that some of these pranks do. When it takes sandblasters to clean it up, it's not celebrating, it's vandalism.
Hehe, the senior prank here this year all the senior guys dressed up as spanish bull runners and ran through this assembly thing we were having like maniacs, jumping over people, running through groups of staff, etc. Originally, they were going to crash the track meet we were having, but somebody squealed to the staff so that didn't work out (but oh man seeing them run around the track with all the other schools going WTF would've been hilarious). DN
Our school sucked. We did nothing. Talk about lame. People were even too chicken to skip out on senior skip day. wtf.
I don't care what we do on the last day, I believe any thing's fair except the major stuff like major injury or major vandalization. I wish they had fun stuff like that on the last day of middle school
Lame. Buddy of mine showed up at 8:00 in the morning, completely drunk, and had to be escorted out by the police. Another guy was on acid. We all ditched after lunch.
Ah...senior pranks, wow..has it been that long since I have been in High School... Only problem was, it was 2002, and the whole Sept 11th thing was hitting stuff hard with security...so what does some of my fellow seniors decide to do...call in a bomb threat...real F*cking brilliant. Pretend that someone was trying to kill people in the school. I swear, that day I was thinking, wow, I am a senior and this is the senior prank? That is why you don't let idiots make the senior prank idea. A few years prior, they came up with a brilliant one though. We had video taped school news stuff which they played during lunch. So the seniors had switched the tape with Porn! BAH HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Another year, a group of them had rented a goat from a petting zoo, in which they put on top of the building somehow... And even before that, a group of seniors stole the Bob's Bigboy "Bigboy" from the local Bigboy's.
You make it sound like they brought some AK's and SMG's to school. Be thankful it was just toilet paper.
at least they did something for their graduation...my class had plans, but we were bloody lazy so nothing really happened... stupid lazy kids...
Our senior class prank was to park one of the new VW Bugs in the middle of the main intersection/hallway of the school. Everyone had to climb over and around it to get to class. Senior pranks = awesome + entertaining. Good on them for celebrating GTFO of 18+ years of education.
During my senior year, a group of teens let loose 99 mice and crickets. It was very funny to see the teachers scream around in terror at seeing a little white lab mice running into the room.
I remember some of the pranks they pulled back when I was in school: Playing the Imperial March whenever the Headmaster walked into the main hall. Putting a comedy drumroll / cymbal whenever the chaplain / economics teacher made a bad joke in one of his speeches. Hiding fish around the school - okay, that one went too far. There were six fish, four were found. One more eventually turned up over a month later in a light fitting. I don't want to know what became of the last one. "Kidnapping" the deputy headmaster then issuing an ever-increasing list of demands for his safe return - this one lost a lot of the fun when it turned out he'd been in on the joke and they were all, in fact, having drinks in a local pub and having a great laugh coming up with more demands. That one was tame due to the whole fish thing. I've also heard stories of how someone once almost broke their neck hanging a gigantic "for sale" banner on the side of one of the bigger buildings, and of the old tradition of breaking into the school clocktower to sign your name on the inside of the bell.
You tripping and falling down was not their fault, it was yours for not looking where you were going. The fire alarm prank should be grounds for punishment as I'm pretty sure that's against the law. If they're spraypainting 208 on the walls, they probably shouldn't be graduating until they learn what year it is.
We had a short news program where the two student reporters would read notices or upcoming games or what not before Channel One in the morning during Homeroom. for our last week, we made up the news stuff. as Editor in Chief of the school paper, i got to do one of these programs and I did a version of Good Morning Vietnam for like 9 minutes. made fun of everything and everybody i could and it was awesome. School pranks were done, but we kept it reasonable. ever seen a parade in a school? we got a bass drum, snare and 5 kids playing kazoos march dpwn the halls. oh the fun.
When I was at college, all the PCs had the same wallpaper image showing the college logo, taken from our very insecure network server. Someone switched the pic for porn on the last day some ten years ago.
A) Posting cops will help prevent vandalism. B) Perhaps the seniors know which version of 'strait' and 'straight' to use, and thus their exuberance.
We had the usual toilet papering trees and stuff. They guys doing the main stuff (the night before) had included some chalk body outlines on the floor that they were forced to remove. It was always more about the 'Charity Day Assembly' which we had to coincide with Red Nose day over here ( a huge charity thing every 2 years). Thankfully our last year fell in line with one of those. For the schoo lassembly the finalyear takes over and does everything, taking the ever loving piss out of every staffmember they can. That was truely awesome, would decribe it, but unless you knew the teachers,would be pretty pointless!...
Harmless pranks are ok, but when it costs money to clean up after them is where the line is crossed. Those who did it should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. If they aren't found, I say cancel the graduation ceremony. That will get those responsible found out really fast.
