What's your bucket list?

I did in elementary school.

I did in China, but not when we came here. I think I mentioned before Mommy still has my last uniform I wore in China. That is some serious hoarding.

Anybody where a uniform to school?

I did until the 5th grade;....then I got thrown out of Catholic school.  ac_biggrin

Haha, that's why my parents never put me in the Catholic system when we came here.

The rotten smelly nuns don't like it when you beat the fuck out of their pet favorites.



They don't like it at all.

By the time I got to Catholic school, beating on kids was seriously frowned upon.  I was a suck up so I never got the beats.  I did see a kid get strapped to his desk and another got picked up by a teacher who put his head in a garbage can.



The nuns, although grumpy, were old and harmless for the most part.  You sure didn't fuck with them though.



I actually got transferred from public school because of a principal who had it out for me.  I once brought an industrial first aid book to school and got sent home for bringing in pornography.  That guy was a lying sack of shit who made my life hell and some 20 years later, I helped get him fired from my kids' school.  It was something I crossed off my bucket list in fact.

Some of the old school nuns really were, especially if the didn't like you or if you had a learning disability, like me. AND the really old ones..... smelled like ass



The only saving grace was that the school I went to had a lot of lay teachers because the ancient nuns were retiring or dying faster than they could replace them.

I don't think of nuns as a growth profession.

It was frowned upon when I went to school as well. In fact the school policy was no corporal punishment at all but they lied. They also had no problem threatening kids with physical harm or using humiliation as a punishment for minor infractions or if you were unlucky enough to have difficulty keeping up academically. I can remember on more than one occasion being called stupid or dumb and being made an example of in front of the class. Add that to being the fat unpopular kid and my life was a fucking hell.

I kind of liked knowing what I was going to wear every day and that it was the same as everyone else.

I remember those who did not keep up academically were not treated kindly by teachers.  Us kids couldn't have cared less who was stupid or not.  We also had really small class sizes which made the learning environment much better IMHO.  My class was rife with bullies though and no, I was not one of them. (A classmate of mine ended up going to jail for 11 years for kidnapping and sodomizing a woman with a liquour bottle.)



We really only had one nun who taught us religion.  We'd get priests in training in to teach as well and we tortured the shit out of them.  We had one named Bart.  He had Coke bottle glasses and we didn't give him an inch.  He did become a priest in spite of us.  Our head priest wasn't a man you fucked with.  We had another priest named John who would come and visit.  He was kind and wore Jesus sandals.  We all loved him.  We also loved our Monsignor who was also gentle and kind.  We didn't have any kiddy diddler types, or at least none that have come to light.  



That said, my grade 7 teacher got fired years after I left for supervising grade 7 girls changing who were taking too long.  He got fired and I don't know what became of him after that.  He wasn't a priest or anything.

You're stupid, you're dumb, and I've made more than one example of you in front of the forum.



And you're as popular as a dysentry sufferer in a two man submarine.

I'm not opposed to the idea of uniforms.
