They stole all the clocks, some kid even stole a printer...

Evidently ticktock is acting up again. This time it's devious licks. Scoundrels (middle schoolers) have been poaching anything that'll fit in their backpacks and then doing vids to show off their ill gotten booty. I got kids in 2 different middle schools and they both said there's not a stapler to be found, no soap or soap dispensers in the bathrooms, hell they're even missing entire urinals and stall doors. What'll these kids think of next to amuse themselves?

someone should go slap some parents around, not to hard to figure out who the shitheads are.

disclaimer: I know that stealing is wrong. Knew it then, know it know. I even feel badly about it.

This is nothing new. When I was in 8th grade, I had this social studies teacher who was just fucking awful (he was eventually fired). So what did I do? I stole his teacher ID. Left the lanyard it was hanging from on his desk. Took his trashcan. Took his stapler. Took his globe. His was my last class of the day so it was fairly easy to make a hasty exit and fall into the wave of students in the hallway unnoticed. I always ended up returning his shit in some fashion, typically leaving it in the middle of the hallway outside his door, except for that ID. I still have that thing somewhere.

And yeah, motherfuckers would steal anything. None of the stalls in the boys bathroom on our hall had doors on them. The paper towel dispensers were torn off the wall. Ceiling squares would disappear. A stand-up bass disappeared from the orchestra room my 7th grade year.

Middle school truly is the wild west.

ETA for context for the people in back.

Road signs, school supplies, all sorts of stuff. I think it has always happened. Kids really are dumb these days. Why would you post the evidence of it online?

I participated once. We had a school bus driver that played the worst music and we always asked him to change it. He told us that if we wanted to pick the music, we should drive ourselves. He wasn't a pleasant person. One night I slipped into the bus yard, found his bus, and removed all the speakers out of it and put them in a box behind the maintenance shed. It was a solo job and I never told a soul. Growing up in a small town, I bet those speakers are still in that box surrounded by weeds behind the maintenance shed decades later and that bus still has empty speaker holes. I still don't feel guilty about it...I didn't really remove them from the property and that guy's music really did suck.

Please tell me his taste in music included copious amounts of the Eagles.

**JayPowHound** · 09-15-2021, 03:57 PM

Overheard kids talking about missing soap dispensers at our HS today. Didn't know what they were referencing until this...

wtf.

The fucking Eagles man. I didn't hate the Eagles before meeting this bus driver. And this fucker only had four tapes. Beach Boys Greatest Hits, Los Lobos and Tom Jones were the other three.

So that's why bathroom stuff always has the weird screws.

Who do you think started this Tiktok thing? Big screw.

**ötzi** · 09-15-2021, 06:07 PM

Well back in my day we didn't steal stuff from school.

No, we wrecked it and left it right there.

Exactly. Why would you steal a typewriter when you could just throw it out of the third story window?

We had a liquor store in our parking lot in high school. Every Tuesday the delivery driver from the Coors distributor would pull up at 8:20 am, roll a dolly full of beer inside, and shoot the shit with the owner while we cleared out half his truck in to our cars. Took a long time before he started locking the doors.

In Jr High I hired a kid to steal me an Ohaus Triple Beam from the lab for 20 bucks and traded it for a 1/4 lb of something called Gold Colombian.

Was it a dial o gram? Mine was and was $$$$ no moving weights around. Dial in desired weight, toss on material and wait for it to balance.

We had a class in high school that was right after lunch. One of my buddies was in love with one of our classmates. Everytime we went to McDonalds something from the restaurant would end up on her desk before she’d walk in.

Napkin dispensers. Trays. Soda cups. Food (not often, but sometimes). Condiment dispensers. Etc. Like a love offering.

She was both not impressed and impressed.

The most notable was when she came in and her desk/chair thing was gone, replaced by a McDonalds chair. Since the desk was gone, gone, she had no choice but to sit in the McDonalds chair for the entire class.

Was taught by my favorite teacher of all time. He was super smart, insanely demanding, and stoic. Dude never blinked.

The whole thing was pretty legendary.

That's hilarious! Do you know who was doing it or did they manage to stay totally anonymous?

It’s going on at my kids HS and all over SF too. Every random thing they can get their hands on is getting snagged. The more pointless the better lol

Oh yeah, everyone knew. Including the teacher. She sitting in the front row in a MickyDs chair with no desk as class starts, and he doesn't acknowledge it in anyway, just starts teaching. Though I swear I saw him laugh to himself as he turned around to write on the chalkboard...
