All the computers at my highschool had a shared drive anyone could access. Someone put an executable for a Tron-style multiplayer game in that drive and it caused a craze where, at any given time, half the school computers were being used by students to play this Tron game with each other over LAN instead of studying.
I may have been the one who put the executable on the drive to play with my friends. I may have also been banned from using the school computers for the rest of the semester because of it.
Lol. Brings back memories of all-nighters playing Doom in the computer labs. IT used to delete it from all of the desktops and we would just ftp it back again.
I was a computer lab assistant from 10th-12th grade. My senior year I skipped most of my classes to play Doom or Descent with the other computer lab assistants.
We used our schools network for playing Diablo II
That definitely happened more than once in a couple of the schools I went to. One teacher didn’t care and let a bunch of kids play games in the lab during class. I don’t think a lot of them did so well on their grades in that class.
Yup, we did the same with CS 1.6
Lordy this one is so specific I’ll probably doxx myself with it, lol.
Small town college in a pretty red (enough) state, one store in town to buy any groceries unless you have a car and can get to the bigger stores in the next town. Black kid gets tackled fleeing the shop by the son of the shop owners, initial wave of gossip blames racial profiling by the white owners and the students start boycotting the business. College itself gets involved and stops purchasing food for the dining halls (baked goods, etc.) from the shop, severely cutting into their business margins. Turns out the kid was actually shoplifting, and if I remember correctly was shoplifting alcohol while underage, and it becomes a huge fiasco (as if it wasn’t already) with the police getting involved and I think the business sued the college. Not positive how it ended as it mostly happened right when I was graduating.
There were news articles about it online as it got to be a pretty huge deal with the lawsuits and everything. Partly posting this to see how many other people from there at that time are on here (I suspect more than a few).
Edited to add - turns out there’s an entire wikipedia article about this, so have fun anyone who searches for this lmao.
Oberlin?
Yup, that’s the one!
‘Kid’ as in minor, or as in under the legal age to purchase alcohol in your shithole country?
Because that certainly affects where I place the blame
A girl my year was killed by a serial killer. It was pretty surreal.
not related in any way to your comment, but your username…
When you’re doing an inspection down there, do you have to really fight the urge to say “hello there!“ ?
I fought with your father in the cervix wars
A girl my year was almost killed by a crazy homeless guy while walking to school. She got stabbed 17 times, if I remember correctly, including once in the neck.
She survived. Didn’t take that trail to school anymore after she’d healed up.
Another girl died in a go-kart accident. Not like, hook a lawn mower motor to a frame go-kart, but a racing kart where she raced in a league. She went straight into a wall, and her heart dislodged inside her chest. Nothing obviously wrong with her, just instantly dead.
One of the special needs kids got naked in the bathroom, took a shit on the floor and rubbed it all over the walls and himself before strolling the halls ass naked and covered in his own shit. It was a wild scene, man.
There was a similar kid in my school who had a thing for pooping right on center court in the gym. He’d try to escape his supervisors to do it. One time was in the middle of my gym class during a floor hockey game. It was…something.
Same kid used to have seizures: he’d go stiff and fall over. Sometimes he landed head first. The sound of a human head hitting a concrete floor with no attempt to soften the blow haunts me to this day. You could hear it halfway across the school…
In high school some kids stole a school bus, trashed the inside and peed all over the back. Left their beer bottles and cigarette butts all over. Tore up a bunch of the seats, burned some of them. Crashed it into a ditch at some point but managed to keep going. They did at least park it back where they got it from tho. Whole big shit show the next morning. They had the entire high school in the gym, threatening to suspend and charge whoever did it. The thing was everybody already figured out who it was when most of the boys and girls basketball team didn’t show up that morning. In the end they only got community service with a fine and were supposed to be suspended but that got canceled because they made it to state and apparently state basketball is more important than their punishment. One kid just sold a cow and covered the fine for all of them. Three of them had just gotten in trouble the year before for stealing a car and rolling it, two of them almost died but apparently they didn’t learn anything that time either.
Where did the kid get a cow that he could sell?
The school calfeteria.
I know some of the food is undercooked but this is getting ridiculous.
He had some magic beans lying about that he traded for it.
Oh, there were plenty. There was the student with the Confederate flag in his dorm window. There was the underage student doing a nude bondage show in a residence hallway for cigarette money. There was the underground newspaper stolen by the editors of the official newspaper. There was apparently a naked bus driver at one point but I don’t know the details. There was a staff member caught in the shower with a student — caught by the staff member’s brand-new wife, who was also on staff. There was the student pirating movies, making DVDs, and selling them to staff.
Christ
Man seeing that first point listed here is kinda surreal to see. Because my highschool was in a bumbfuck nowhere yeeyee ass town there were confederate flags everywhere and fake wannabe southerners in cowboy hats (this is a very north state lol) literally the first thing you’d see upon entering the town was one of those flags flying on the right side (tho it slowly got destroyed by the weather until it was taken down thankfully)
Oh, those are from different institutions. That one wasn’t even in the South; it was in New England. Dude was trolling; years before “right-wing troll” was a paid online job.
Omg I cannot with non-american conservatives 💀can’t even use the “southern pride” excuse at that point lmao(edit: bozo forgot geography)New England is in America.
I’m so fucking stupid ignore me lakddff ⚰️🚶
The Tenni-bator. A guy would approach the tennis courts from the woods in a trench coat and beat his meat to tennis practice. Male or female, if I remember correctly. When they’d try to catch him, he’d disappear into the woods. I don’t think he was ever caught.
“New balls, please”
In grade school, “that incident” was we would spin the merry-go-round as fast as we could.
Well, a dude flew off of it, hit the tree, and tore his sack.
OH NO
In high school, we had three former students who returned as teachers. They quickly moved in together. For the next three years, they were dogged by rumors that they held keggers and house parties with a young crowd, students included. One day, one of the teachers abruptly left, and stopped associating with the other two at work (school). Pretty soon, the remaining two teachers were accused of having “affairs” with students, at least one of whom was underage.
That dude went to jail! The other two left for nearby schools.
One kid broke into another kid’s house with a knife and murdered the whole family.
You win.
I went to a boarding school for the blind. The high school and elementary schools were connected by a long hallway. I was 19 and so had a bit more freedom to do things the others were not allowed. One of the thing I liked doing was hanging out with the elementary principles admin assistant. She was 22 and we really liked each other. You can fill in the rest I’m sure. They couldn’t do anything about it, but they really tried. She eventually quit but would come back and pick me up to go to her place. Got asked once where I was going everyday by a dorm manager. Told them the truth, this guy was an older biker, drove a Harley and wore a leather jacket. The kids loved him cause he wasn’t an ass and let us get away with a lot of stuff. He thought it was hilarious. I was told by others multiple times that it was inappropriate. The year after I graduated they added a rule to the bylaws that said no students could date or have any other relationships with school staff.
ADMIN: DO YOU REALIZE THIS IS INAPPROPRIATE!?
Op: I don’t see the problem.
I must have just been blind to any issues.

Who hasn’t sucked off their plugs one or twice?
Does eating your plug out count?
Why the hell not?
Give them a glass-bottomed boat while you’re at it for all I care.
Was the Dean the local drug dealer?
There were a few for my high school, but one I was there for was when I was sitting in the bus when suddenly everything went quiet (highly unusual). I looked behind myself and everyone was covering their ears, then the smell of gunpowder hit my nose. Some dumb fuck lit a firecracker and tossed it into the middle lane (wtvr it was called) when the bus was driving between the lake and the train tracks. Thank GOD it was a dud. Anyways, I brought this up to the principle and teachers the next day and seemingly no one gave a shit ?? Goes to show how garbage my school was lol
For my college, I can’t give specifics but it’d have to be the murders. Very tragic and sad incident
Sorry, what was that last part? You trailed off.
I didn’t want to dox my college because it became a pretty huge deal (however you’ll probably know with this comment admittedly) but there was a mass murder killing a couple students one night, I think the guy got caught but it was a devastating time. Not to mention subsequently getting the emails from my college stating a murder happened and then following it up with several murders actually was scary
My high school made national news when half the senior class made the nazi salute in the class photo.
Not my high school, but our closest rival.
Rancho Bernardo High School Broomstick Incident
There was also a bomb threat during my freshman year that turned out to be nothing, but it was like right after the Columbine shooting so everyone lost their minds.
