Done in one.

I don't get it.

How does limiting permitted organized school activities prevent unpermitted organized school activities?

Petit_Merdeux: I don't get it.

There was a movie called Animal House that was made in the late 70s which was purported to be about college life during the mid 1960s. In one scene, one of the characters takes a creme filled donut and crams it into his mouth causing his cheeks to expand. He asks "guess what I am" and then uses his fists to punch himself in both cheeks causing the creme filling to come flying out of his mouth. He then says he was a zit.

The reason he says this is because if you squeeze a zit, also known as a pimple, you will get a discharge of white material coming out at high speed, much like the character when he caused the creme filling to come out.

The relevance of the headline stems from the fact that the scene in the movie preceded a food fight and since the article is about a food fight at a school, the submitter thought they would be funny by referencing it, not realizing that the movie may not have been seen by everyone.

For some reason I always thought it was mashed potatoes.

Make the kids clean it up. I might sound old, but it's only fair.

//am old

The students can earn some of those activities back by being on good behavior.

OK then, the headline...not so much.

I don't know what the hell it is...doesn't look like a donut or potatoes...

Subby, I got the Animal House reference but honestly, as a new parent, the first thing I could think of was:



"Can you Guess What I am? Quack Quack! I'm pretending to be... a duck!" Quack with me. Quack Quack!"

It was mashed potatoes.

There is no one left on this planet that has not seen this movie.

Previous scene he rolls the mashed pots into a ball.

/feeling old atm

"John Blutowski you are a P-I-G pig!"

I've never had mashed potato come out of a popped zit. It always tastes much worse.

For some reason I always thought it was mashed potatoes.

That's because it was. It's spherical appearance was due to it being scooped with an ice cream scooper-like device frequently used to ensure consistent distribution of cafeteria food.

Man. Having to explain the classics just sucks the life out of teh funnay...

Here's the scene for any heathens that missed it.

/"You've got your milk, too. Can I just massage your thighs while you eat, then?"

field trips to Six Flags and Great America


WTF?

Why are they taking kids on field trips to amusement parks?

Are there no museums?

I think I know how to reform our education system.

I'm not sure what the Six Flags are like out in California, but missing out on a trip to the one here in Maryland isn't exactly a punishment.


/it was mashed potatoes
//stuffs a donut into his mouth earlier in the scene too

"Not great?!???..."

[/points at self]

Awwwww c'mon- the only kids that should get in trouble are the ones that blocked the doors.

/We had a food fight at my elementary school. Our only punishment was that we had to stay after school later that week and help the custodians, since they had cleaned up our mess.

//ELEMENTARY students are bringing drugs and guns to school and the administrators are freaking out about a food fight?!?! Geez.

Twas purée de pommes de terre.

As for my comment, he said "Get it?" right after the "I'm a zit"

I was just providing a hypothetical answer because one was never given in the film.

My kids (12 and 13) just had to watch that movie and they were just cracking up all thru it.

Next up for them, The Blues Brothers.

Loved John Belushi in everything

You have obviously never eaten mashed potatoes at a school cafeteria.


/that's not a bad thing

micah1701: Subby, I got the Animal House reference but honestly, as a new parent, the first thing I could think of was:

(pic of Scout the dog)

"Can you Guess What I am? Quack Quack! I'm pretending to be... a duck!" Quack with me. Quack Quack!"

Oh my God my boyfriend's niece has one of those things and it's so creepy! The little songs they sing where they incorporate (poorly) the child's name? That's hilarious! How old's your kiddo?

So wait: this was planned by the students on FACEBOOK and yet the staff did nothing about it?

So I guess spoiled kids doing kid stuff is shocking to detached and oblivious parents and teachers.

Since when do school kids get to go to amusement parks anyway on a school outing?

So much derp in this story.

Rrrrrrrr...those things...I hate you...but I'll play along.

Watch as fark becomes a mommy blog.

maddogdelta: "John Blutowski you are a P-I-G pig!"


Actually the quote goes like this... "That boy is a P-I-G pig."

and Babs Jansen said it.

Generation_D: Watch as fark becomes a mommy blog.

Oh wow! I know, right? Who would think that people with kids would be more likely to comment on a story about kids? What are the odds?!

/not a parent

Petit_Merdeux: I don't get it.

People still haven't seen Animal House?

Happy Hours: field trips to Six Flags and Great America

"And the Union workhouses?" demanded Scrooge. "Are they still in operation?"

basemetal: appropriate (new window)



So Gary Dell'Abate is not his real name?

You guys are missing out on living in space, it's farking great!

For some reason I read that in this guys voice.



/in the world

BTW, When at Universal don't bother to ask for "Babs." I tried, they had no idea what I was talking about. I'm old.

Well, it's sorta funny. But I don't think it the sort of headline that's gonna be pulling a lot of people in.

FTFA: "They are concerned, not just about the cost of clean up, which reached into the hundreds of dollars, but the safety of students."

Into the hundreds of dollars? Crap that's enough to cancel pretty much all after school activities right there. And no number 2 pencils for any one. And safety of the students? How can you hurt some one in a food fight? Are they afraid that there were people with sever peanut allergies being affected?

FTA: They are concerned, not just about the cost of clean up, which reached into the hundreds of dollars,

The horror!

Hahaha. Dammit! I got distracted by watching the video that CatJumpJohn posted.

has anyone referenced Animal House food fight scene yet? if not, this totally reminds me of Animal House food fight scene!

Phil Herup: Actually the quote goes like this... "That boy is a P-I-G pig."

You must be a blast at parties.

Bathia_Mapes: Phil may be a politics tab troll, but in this case he's 100% correct about what Babs Jansen says in the movie.


My point was, when I say, "Come up and see me sometime" and some one else says, "I'm sorry, but the proper quote is, 'Why don't you come up sometime 'n see me?'" I just look at them while thinking "Loser!"
