Yeah, I have finals next week.

If I get 50% on my English final I'll still have an A- in the class.

Someone in one of my classes apparently thought Stephen Hawking was "famous for being stupid".

My God. Please tell me they were joking.

Please tell me everyone either laughed their ass off or just looked at him funny after that.

I mean, how can that seriously go through a person's mind?

Your teacher should have said, "No, but now you are."

Last week, the school's administrator came in and observed our gym class. As reward for not getting him fired, our gym teacher bought us pizza today! :mrgreen:

...What is your gym teacher hiding that could potentially get him fired, Zumi? :P

Are you saying it's wrong to talk to a bag of Skittles? Because if so, I'm going to need to rethink a lot of things. :P

What he's hiding is that he doesn't teach us anything, lets us do whatever we want as long as we're playing the sport we're supposed to be learning, and curves all our test grades so that we don't fail. :P

Today, in P.E., we started basketball scrimmages. I had the ball and was being guarded and attempted a behind-the-back bounce pass. I thought I was going to fail but it was surprisingly a perfect pass. It was sooooooooo smooth!

PE is so different now. Back in my day we played war ball, which was just a more violent name for dodge ball. Before we picked teams one day in class, the PE teacher pulled me and another athlete aside and told us we would get bonus points for face shots on a specific kid he didn't like. The kid was a filthy little jerk full of insults, probably two-years too old for our grade, who hardly ever showed up for class. His nickname was the Grisly Gopher. We didn't like him either so we gave it to him pretty good. But the story gets better (worse?).

Later in the year we played football. Same situation, PE teacher pulled us aside, made my friend and I captains, and said we would get an A+ for the year if we took out the Gopher. "A+ for you both if you take out ________. I'll tell you why later. Trust me. You will be glad you did." Those were his exact words. We were getting an A+ anyway, but whatever. The Gopher was the last pick and ended up on the other team. On the first play of the game, my friend gives me a wink and lobs a pass in the Gopher's direction. I timed it perfectly. Just as the balls hits the Gopher in the shoulder, I plow through him at full speed and knock him 10 feet into a chain link fence. I could hear the PE teacher laughing behind us as the Gopher writhed in a ball of pain, his leg pinned under the fence. After a minute he stood up and limped to the gym. I thought for sure I was going to get a call to the Principal's office. It never happened, and we never saw the Grisly Gopher again. During the next week or so, random teachers and faculty members would come up to me and say, "Hey, I hear you took out _______! Way to go!" Or, "Let me shake your hand! You know what I'm talking about! Nice work!" It was unsettling because I felt guilty for dishing out that cheap shot, and here were all these adults, these protectors of children, who seemed overjoyed by the result. But it also dawned on me that there must have been a good reason. I was right.

On the last day of PE, my teacher pulled me aside and told me about the Gopher. He was a convicted pedophile in another state, and was under investigation for additional offenses here in our hometown. He would hide in the bushes and prey on grade school boys who were walking home from school. The teachers were aware of this and fought like hell to keep the kid out of our school but they were unsuccessful. The day I knocked the crap out of him was the last day he ever showed up at school. I heard a few years after graduation that the Gopher is serving a life term in prison.

I love dodgeball in our P.E.! Probably because I'm like the only person in my class that plays baseball.

They still let you guys play? With those little cherry balls? I thought that game was banned. Cool . . .

Yeah, we play with foam balls. So it really doesn't hurt, unless you're pegged, by me or two other guys with "The Little Orangey."

I remember the good times in middle school of playing "The Bomb". Pretty much dodgeball but if you catch a certain-colored ball your whole team is back in. So intense.

Not sure what high school P.E. has in store for me..

For us, if you hit the backboard of the basketball hoop everybody comes back in.
