Monsta. Your comment reminds me of what Kurt Cobain said about the cover shot of Nevermind.

At boarding school to hide the smell of fag smoke in the dorms we used to burn josticks. I got hauled up in front of the house mistress for taking drugs. I found this extremely amusing and laughed in her face. She said "Karinofnine, aren't you afraid of anything?" I said, "Well, I'm certainly not afraid of josticks!".
I was expelled not long after that...

In a maths lesson,
LAD, YES YOU, THE LAD WHO HASNT TURNED ROUND TO SEE WHO IAM SHOUTING AT.
Next minute he came running up behind me, gave me such a thump i shot forward out of the seat, and landed on the lad in front, who then jumped up, and tried topunch me, and hit the
Pychopathteacher insted, oh how we all laughed.Strangely in another maths lesson, different teacher, he hit a lad with a 4 foot plastic board ruler, split his head open, all covered up, and the lad rtransfered to another school,for being disruptive.

"Andrew has a vibrant sense of colour"
Actually Andrew is very colourblind
"Andrew gets good results in tests but could do with being more forthcoming in class and participating more"
Actually Andrew is never in your classes, you just haven't noticed yet.
"Andrew showed an indepth knowledge of the text"
Andrew didn't read the book, but did watch 2/3rds of the film

'If he put as much energy into his school work as he does in to trying to impress his friends, he could do well.'
This was a recurring comment in my school reports and I tend to agree looking back

A direct quote from my maths teacher in my 1983 school report that my wife and i were having a good laugh over earlier this week: "Adrian is capable of producing some very good work. Unfortunately we haven't seen it yet this term". Classic!

We had a useless Biology teacher who couldn't keep control of the class. He eventually decided to leave and work elsewhere.
I actually don't think we gave him much of a hard time and discipline wasn't really that bad, but maybe I was wrong on that because only 9 out of over 100 across four classes in my year passed their O Level later that year.
When he left, he announced to the class that I wouldn't have a "cat in hell's chance" of passing my exam. I was slightly bemused at his personal attack as we had always seemed to get along. It was probably because I didn't feel like my efforts/abilities were ever recognised by him (coz he was so useless at his job) and this definitely affected my attitude in class.
Anyhow, I was one of the 9 who passed.
