..but it might resemble aspects of lacrosse.
I'm not going to name names, but a rumour has been circulating Big House that a veritable panoply of fishboning botnets accounts may be in existence.
I shall say no more.
I am going to turn out the lights, for ten seconds and I expect to see all
the fishbone botnets accounts on my desk when I turn the lights back on.

I think I heard something scuttle under the fridge... |
|
| |
If the boy concerned doesn't step forward it'll be triple PE for the whole class, with extra cold showers. |
|

Our headmaster (also our Anglican priest) once
threatened that he would not eat until the thieves
who took the bell from the school chapel owned up. |
|
| |
No-one did and he didn't lose any weight so we
concluded he was not only a blackmailer but a liar,
too. |
|
| |
Your old headmaster - that was a truly crap threat, straight out of the Popular Front for Judea (Suicide Squad) manual.. |
|
| |
In the HB context...I'd think having a cat strapped to your face, when the only tool to remove it is a howitzer and the borg is the one doing the aiming, would prove a deterrent to most people.. |
|
| |
Cool! Another bone as well! |
|
| |
Right! Extra runny,cold tapioca for a week.. |
|
| |
That really, really hideous cheap bacon, apparently cooked in the heart of the sun, with partly-cooked liver is a watery liquid alleged to be gravy.. |
|
| |
Whatever happened to bacon rashers with white
bone fragments? |
|
| |
//bacon rashers with white bone fragments |
|

forgotten about that bit.. |
|
| |
Right, Triple R.E. and doing the the school play, ok who's going to be Nanki-Poo? |
|
| |
This sounds like something out of 'The Wall'. Are British
schools really still like this, or are you being Pythonesque? |
|
| |
In the States there are shootings, in the UK we have to make do with staging Gilbert and Sullivan light operettas. |
|
| |
One of these results in greater, longer lasting trauma. |
|
| |
I want names. Names of those doing this so that [po]
can yell at them. |
|
| |
One's called Gilbert and the other one is Sullivan, I suspect a ouija board might be needed for the shouting... |
|
| |
<wonders if it is possible to telesales the dead with a ouija board?> |
|
| |
There's a reason that "Pythonesque" is the way it
is,
isn't there, [Morrison minor]? |
|
| |
Hmm, boy? Speak up! Let's hear what you have to
say, [Morrison minor]! I can't hear you!
Don't hide your light under a bushel, lad, lest it go
out, hmm? |
|
| |
<Fuck, I hated masters pulling this shit on us when
I was at boarding school. Still feeling the mental
anguish of being publicly humiliated by some
unassailable, tenured twat with a drippy nose and
sunken chest.> |
|
| |
A lawyer can mess up you life temporarily, a really naff teacher has a longer lasting effect. Currently working on i-ouija board for a spot of cold-calling.. |
|
| |
It's funny, I went back to the old school in my late
20s, for an old boys' reunion. The teachers who tried
so hard to lord it over us were short, balding,
paunchy, ineffectual pricks and nowhere near as
intimidating as they seemed when I was 12-17 years
old. |
|
| |
I even had the pleasure of bankrupting one of them,
about 12 years ago. |
|
| |
The simple pleasures in life..I remember not getting shot by a cheesemonger in Egypt, if that counts? |
|
| |
Someone's got a mean streak. Yeesh. |
|
| |
Never said I didn't, mate. |
|
| |
Surprised nobody tried a "quantifying mean streaks" post yet, and what would the system of measurements be? |
|
| |
There was a pretty good Radiolab episode the other day on how many traits are shared between some successful leaders / CEOs and psychopaths, using a psychopathy test they developed in the 80's.

//....once threatened that he would not eat until the thieves who took the bell from the school chapel owned up// Maybe he took it himself. In this way he could satisfy all outcomes. ie he keeps the bell, he confesses, and he eats. |
|
| |
Nope. We knew who had stolen it, because we had
hidden it in the pool maintenance shed. |
|
| |
//did the shit hit the fan |
|
| |
Perhaps the cotton balls were there to mop that up afterwards, some kind of pre-emptive and yet recursive cleaning strategy... |
|
| |
That sort of behaviour is either bullying if it's done to
everyone or bastardisation if it's done to an
individual, [21Q]. Either way, it epitomises a lot of
what's wrong with military culture. |
|
| |
In training, I disagree. It foments the concept that things
will turn against you for no reason whatsoever, and that
the error or misfortune of one soldier effects the entire
unit as a whole. In battle, things turn to shit through
random happenstance and the only way to deal with it is
by everybody acting as one. This seemingly petty
overeaction and arbitrarily sanctioned discipline in basic
training is a way to mentally and emotionally prepare fresh
recruits for such hardship without getting anyone killed. |
|
| |
In routine military domesticity, or when overdone in
training, yes, it's bullying. |
|
| |
<wonders if he should delete the post before the fishbones reach critical mass and/or event horizon> |
|
| |
<stops wondering about that and wonders why HB has never been DDOS'd by anonymous..suspicious...> |
|
| |
And the sub-par IQs of military basic training recruits
are supposed to be able to draw a distinction
between conditioning and abuse? Is it warm under
that flat rock, [Alter] |
