    AT my school the administration worries more about small annoying rules than the important issues.

    The most annoying thing they have done as of late is.......

    1.No face painting for basketball games, or any other sporting event, home or away
    2. No costumes for any sporting event.
    3. Don't say chants that cheer "against" the other team.
    4. Don't be to crazy at a game. Either by being 2 loud and crazy or such as running out on the court after the game is completed.
    5. Don't be to loud during basketball practice......if you happen to be practicing in the gymnasium or weight room.(annoying rule that has nothign to do with it but is still stupid)

    I remember when i was little looking at the student section and dreaming of sitting there cuz it looked so fun. Now it seems nobody even cares because we aren't allowed to do anything fun really.
    I'm just wondering if any of this is stupid or is breaking the first ammendment to the constitution. Were any, or are any, of your schools like this?

    the punishment for breaking the rules is a 2 week suspension from going to games and further violations result in ******ed punishments.

    In a year, you won't care anyway. Go to college where everyone just gets drunk in the parking lot, now THAT'S a good sporting event.

    My High School banned Pep Rallies the year before my freshman year. My sister told me it was because people brought silly string and some guys got into a fight.

    And guess what? I didn't care. I was glad to be spared the torture of sitting out on the bleachers in 30-40 degree weather and pretend I gave a damn about the football team.

    If they banned pep rallies along with this, I would bless my school. I honestly don't see why you care.

    School was so much more fun back in the old days. Now it's like a Pink Floyd video.
    Thanks to mini gangsters wannabe's , little shits with guns, and all the other little crime infected dumbasses ,everyone has to pay.


    Oh and Just remember to eat your meat, or you won't get any pudding.
    How do you expect to get any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

    Cuz ya know, some people like going to school sporting events to socialize and cheer on their friends, instead of maybe finding the most depressing news stories on the web.

    I don't have school spirit, so I'm good. And frankly, the risen, IMO your school admins must be total dicks.

    Certainly, me posting various stories on a single internet message board means that I do not socialize and cheer on friends, perhaps I even don't have friends. Especially when people choose to ignore the neutral or positive ones I post, and claim I always post negative ones. Sir, you are indeed a genius, and I see a bright future in store for you.

    oh noes you attacked his internet habits.

    Maybe some of us have passed through high school and realized in the big picture, it really doesn't mean shit if you went to a few extra pep rallies or not.

    With every bite of food, every breath of air, every thrust of dick, in the back of my mind I can't help but think how much sweeter it would be if only I'd tried to feel some actual school spirit all those years ago. As I remember my apathy, the food is tasteless, the air is thick, the dick is numb. But these are the regrets of a lost soul. I have only to die.

    I'm sorry I made a sarcastic post in jest about another poster, I'll try not to it again. I'll leave that to Jux and all the mods who do it oh so well. Now, um, I guess I'll just go back to toyark or TFGD :confused2

    Yes, our admistration is full of dicks. We are allowed to paint our faces up again, thanks to about half the town going in and bitching at our AD and principal. Heck, people how don't even have kids who do the dressing up and shit went in. The most worthless part to me was the reason our pricipal gave. He said we couldn't do it was becasue the dressed up and everything because we wanted to make a show of ourselves and take attention away from the team. What a fuckbag.
