OT:Check marks On The Chalkboard

When I was a kid growing up, they use to put me in a corner wearing a pointed hat.

I think Catholic nuns all use the same universal play book.

Did you get gold stars on your homework too?

Never got check marks or gold stars,but I did get Tag watches,Saab turbos and summer homes.

@Moto-Sister Mary Clements,1982. 1st Holy Communion. Knuckles red n raw.

It was gold stars for me.

The teacher wouldnt let me go to the bathroom so I pissed on the floor

I remember gold stars, and crummy notes pinned to my jean cuffs by the teacher to show my parents.

As I recall, in my youth, it was a stone tablet and chisel! :)

I think that one check meant no recess, two checks was no lunch, and three checks meant detention or the principal's office. I bet that Gawker would know.

4 meant fuck the teacher. :)

Anyone have a teacher they would want to?

I want recess again!

@Clubber-I only wish...

"Anyone have a teacher they would want to?"

Hell no. I had nuns in grade school and ugly old women in public high school

@Moto-I know you had your own version of Sister Mary Clements-Short, Stocky, Mean, and Mean. She'd be a better bouncer than most bouncers.

^^^I went to Catechism for years. I always wondered why we had to say Our Fathers and Hail Mary's so much, when God was already punishing us with the nuns.

@Mikey-Hahahahaha. My Mom taught catechism(7-8 graders). Everytime that my sisters or I fucked up, Mama knew.

Every kid I ever knew that went to catechism said the priest tried to rape them

Not in my diocese. Not on my watch.

Yup, on more than one occasion my checks were not erased daily but weekly.

The school teacher I've been banging off and on mentioned a couple of months back that her school said they couldn't do things like that because a parent complained that it was "publicly humiliating" their child.

Doubt chalkboards exist any more. Actually I can't remember any in high school probably due to being a health/environmental hazard.

They probably just take away your tablet/e-reader during recess now.
