Balls banned from school

Balls have been banned from all girls schools for ages, nothing new.
 
the whole snowball fight in the schoolyard thing, funny that you mention that. . .

back when i was in 4th grade, a kid at my grade school who was in grade six got a snowball in the head so hard that it caused him to fall to the ground, head first. his head struck the ground and he fell into a coma. he almost died, but came out of it, albeit with permanent brain damage.

true story
 
Let's just close the schools, save the tax dollars, sell the properties.
Give every kid a computer, i'm sure with all the technology today, they can arrange some serious conference type interface system with file sharing etc....
Everyone can stay safely at home, no risk of an accident on the school bus, no bullies, no peanuts, no religious issues, no bad influences, and most importantly, NO BALLS!

I hope the doomsday prediction for 2012 is accurate, save us all from the stupidity of the future.... :banghead:
 
This is just too much. I wonder what's next?
 
If i didnt grow up learning lessongs from bumbs, scrapes and bruises I probably would not have the self preservation instincts that keep me from cleaning my chain with the bike running and cutting my finger off. :rolleyes:

True that! Maybe if that kid who climbed off the railing at Niagara really know what a waterfall can do she would have had 2nd thoughts.


But anyway, I say we ban hockey. That schnit kills:

<<irony>>
 
Used to have a decent arm as a teen (complete mess now but I digress) another kid tried to catch a toss during dodgeball and got knocked the fug out.

Guess what? He grew up just fine.

There's a venturi effect (a guy by the name of Daniel Bernoulli did a whole principle on it) at the edge of the gorge that most people don't know about or understand. It literally pulls you towards the edge of the cliff.

What does venturi effect gotta do with a kid stepping over the barrier to take a pic :D
The place were barricaded for a reason
 
Somebody should tell that principal that smoking the combination of meth and crack makes a principal make stupid decisions :shock:
 
Christ on a stick, what's next? Banning the Lord's Prayer and the singing of the national anthem in the mornings?

Oh, wait...


I think no longer teaching "the lord's prayer" in public schools was a good thing. they can recite it as often as they want in the Xian schools. if you're going to indoctrinate the kids with one religion's prayer, all religion's prayer's should be taught, the hebrew and islamic prayers shouldn't be an issue, they worship the same god as the Xians. I have no issue with schools allowing a space for children to pray to their respective god(s) but it should be kept to before/after school and during recess/lunch breaks and not take away important time from academic learning. How would you like your kids to learn a few pagan rituals whether it be praying to zeus, praying for the spirit of the animals they will eat at lunch or sacrificing a rubber chicken to the tech support gods so their computers don't crash.

Are you also upset with the lack of creationism being taught in science class when the theory of evolution is taught? I learned in religion class (I was educated in a catholic school) that while most of the old testament is considered an accounting of the hebrew people until the birth of christ that the book of genesis was made up and written after some of the books that follow it. same teacher also taught us about the theory of evolution.

with the separation of church and state being indoctrinated into a religion has no place in our public schools. Freedom of religion includes freedom from religion.
 
OMFG

The highlight of our school day was playing red as*. Line people up against the wall and whip a tennis ball at them as hard as we could to see who would wimp out or which guy would cry when he got a shot in the crotch. I cry for the future.
I think I was in grade 5 when this was banned; Grade 2 when snowball fights were banned; Grade 8 when beyblades were banned. The only thing that was never banned were crazy bones. Even YuGiOh & Pokemon eventually got banned 'cause people started playing for keeps and people kept getting butthurt.

The only thing we always got away with was tackle soccer in the winter - we'd have lookouts for the teacher on schoolyard duty. Good times. :(

I wonder what kids do for fun nowadays

Bullpoop! That's turbulent flow there, not laminar, and you know it! Next thing you'll be telling us is that there's a hydraulic jump at the railing. Pfft!
