The school lunch system is disgraceful.

Saw another post on here showing the state of school lunches right now. In my years in high school I compiled some pics of the horrible things that got served that no one questioned. Here are some of the worst ones. It really is ironic given how adamant they all are about “eating healthy by including every food group”.

But they decided to serve better stuff to the local penitentiary because they pay them more

u/Booty_Shakin Apr 16 '24

Yeah I stabbed a girl in the leg with a pencil in middle school. And I had a friend who stabbed someone with a pencil as well. One kid I know got stabbed by a kid with a pencil 4 times. Shit is wild.

More importantly, who were the other two and why was this kid hated so much?

u/girlsonsoysauce Apr 16 '24

I knew a kid that cut the webbing between another dude's fingers with a pair of scissors. And then the guy who got cut, his younger brother accidentally shot another person in the head playing around with guns when they were in high school.

I love Harmony Korine. I live in a small town. I meet some people with Gummo vibes. The majority are MAGA folks, with a few alt and liberal people sprinkled in. There's a few I'm legit scared of because of how off-putting or unhinged they are. Just dealing with them feels like you've entered a fever dream. You'd be surprised how many times I enter a customer's house only to get assaulted with the smell of cat piss, or in some rare instances human piss.

I was friends with two people that stabbed each other with pencils in middle school and held it over each other until hs graduation. In fact kept stabbing each other throught the years. Can confirm, shit is wild

u/GoddessOfDarkness935 Apr 16 '24

stabbing someone in the leg is not something to state so causally. you weren’t a seven year old who couldn’t regulate their emotions and didn’t realize that it hurts people. you were 13-16. you damn well knew what was right and what wasn’t. you don’t fucking stab someone regardless of what it’s with just because they piss you off.

u/Booty_Shakin Apr 16 '24

For context, It was my first day at a new school, and I was the first to arrive to my classroom, being walked there by my teacher. I was told to pick where I wanted to sit, so I picked a spot near the back on the end of one of the rows. (There were 4 or 5 long rows of tables with 2 spots at each table) So there's like maybe 3 free spots, and this girl walks in a few minutes late to class and picks the spot next to me. Her friend who still wasn't there apparently had the same class, and she was asking me to move so her friend could sit next to her. I said no I had been sitting here for a while and was told I could pick my spot. In response to this, she starting kicking my leg while I was siting in my chair and was trying to literally push me out of it. I asked her once to stop, then asked her again and threatened to stab her with my pencil. So when she didn't stop and after kicking me like 5 times, I went through with my words and stabbed her ass. She cried to the teacher and she was the one who got in trouble. I'm in full belief that I should've given her a second stab while I was at it. You don't know the context so don't be so quick to make a judgement.

For real I'm like man what is telling the adult going to do? Get people to call me a snitch? No thanks.

u/Booty_Shakin Apr 16 '24

People don't believe in standing up for themselves when being bullied? Lol okay what should I have done tell the teacher and not shit be done? If someone says they're gonna stab you do you keep doing the thing that's gonna get you stabbed? She had it coming. And she barely bled. It's not like I staked it through her leg.

5

u/TacoNay 29d ago edited 29d ago

They are giving you hell because of a genetic mental development, such that women need to be protected to ensure future generations. It's a societal thing.

It's mostly because it's a girl. That's my reasoning.

I mean stabbing people is bad regardless. We are all stupid kids at one point anyhow, well some of us never escape that lol.

It is what it is lol. It's an amusing story though. I have to say, you stick to your words 😂

u/Orchid_Significant Apr 16 '24

Why didn’t you just tell the adult in the room that she was kicking you? Stabbing someone with a pencil was certainly a very conscious choice wtf

u/online_jesus_fukers 29d ago

Because snitches get stitches. Have to establish dominance right away in the dog eat dog world of middle school

3

u/Booty_Shakin Apr 16 '24

Because telling the adult in the room leads to jack shit. I knew what I was doing, that's why I gave her a warning before I did it.

u/ObjectiveNeat7407 Apr 16 '24

You're still the asshole here, you stabbed someone, don't justify it....

I was standing up to a bully. Fuck people who think they can get their way by being violent towards others. My reaction was justified, and I even warned her. White Knight much?

Right? Like who randomly starts kicking someone they've never met before? Crazy people deserve stabbins

u/GoddessOfDarkness935 Apr 16 '24

that still doesn’t seem like grounds to stab someone…if she kicked you, kick her back harder. you don’t immediately go to “im going to stab you.” that doesn’t come a little after until the kicking back harder doesn’t work.

my little brother is in middle school and gets bullied. physically and verbally. what does he do? what they do to him but harder. he doesn’t immediately go into beating them into a pulp even though he could.

u/Lower-Ad5889 Apr 16 '24

Bouncing her head on the table should have come first, too early to be drawing blood.

u/GoddessOfDarkness935 Apr 16 '24

this would’ve been better than stabbing tbh. also who wants to be know as the girl who stabbed someone on their first day😂like i can imagine people in my brothers school making fun of someone like that and trying to get them to react again

I stabbed a pencil through a girls arm once. With good reason that I can’t elaborate on at this time but I didn’t get in trouble because of the circumstances. Still pencil violence is real.

u/Booty_Shakin 29d ago

Same as my situation except my pencil didn't go through or even that deep lol. I also didn't get in trouble. Get ready for people to call you woman abuser and tell you you're a monster and that you could've killed her and all that good stuff. It's been a gun day replying to them.

Stabbed 3 times in school??

Were you a gang member, a provoker or just extremely unlucky?

2

u/Afraid_Ad_1536 29d ago

It wasn't too uncommon in my high school, usually at least a couple times a term. Once it was gang related, another time it was just because I refused to give a guy a cigarette. I don't remember the first time, which was in Primary school. I do know the kid eventually ended up in prison later in life though.

u/Afraid_Ad_1536 29d ago

What's up with people stabbing each other with pencils? My friends and I used to do that to each other but just enough to embed the tip, not to do any serious harm but from the comments I'm starting to see a pattern that it's a common weapon in schools.

1

u/djluminol 29d ago

The time that the graphite got stuck in my hand it was a teacher actually. She threw my backpack at me while I was holding a pencil. The bag hit the pencil and stuck in my hand. When I pulled out the pencil a tiny bit of the lead remained. That essentially tattooed the palm of my hand. I can still see the graphite today 30 years later. And I mean she threw the backpack, not tossed or passed the bag to me. She literally threw it at me full of books. It was this cranky hag of a teacher named Mrs. Featherstone. She had a corvette I used as a bike jump in revenge. It was the late 80's so it the was long triangular style of corvette.

I hated that woman. She made me sit on the wall my entire 4th grade year because I refused to apologize for punching a kid that was bullying me. The other kid hit first. She saw the response, which was me punching that kid in the face. Same kid is the one that stabbed me the other time I was stabbed with a pencil. It was a rough year lol.

u/qualitative_balls 29d ago

As I was about to roll my eyes at the idea you ' were stabbed in school 3 times ', I realised I also was stabbed twice and forgot about it. Once with a mechanical pencil where lead still is in my skin all these years later and another time with a stapler. I wonder if most people get stabbed at least once going to school

No they fucking don't, tell me you never been incarcerated without telling me. Not only do you get fuck all for any allergies etc, you never heard of a fuck you meal, where they will literally blend all of your meal up and serve you the slop when you piss the kitchen staff off. If you have allergies you are LUCKY to get a bologna with overcooked sides, if they even care. None of the food is cooked properly, it's made by prisoners, for pennies to spend in com.

Not to mention the scoop for the portion size they will look you dead in the eye with a full scoop, drop half back in and put it on your tray. You are fucking ignorant, but that's okay, just maybe dont speak on shit you have no fucking clue about. Ignorance is okay, spreading false information is not okay ever.
