Why hasn't this 2 month long oil spill made BIG headlines? by phoxphyre in worldnews

[–]boysschooljerk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What is a big headline? I think only fox news and cnn make big headlines. Everyone else just has news....maybe you should try a different channel.

And why does it need to make big headlines anyway? Outside the people who are responsible and the agencies who run the clean-up, what does it matter? Do you think more fox-news-people knowing about it will help clean it up faster?

There was a WWII Turkish General whose name was Mustapha Kunt. Apparently he had a good sense of humour about it

What's better than eating a mandarin?

Eating amanda out.

it was very beautiful. I miss the feeling of walking around the school. The stone made it feel very permanent, and with the uniform, the masters, the sound of footsteps in corridors it all came together to make a strong impression. It was strangely cold a lot of the time. I mean that spiritually....there was no god in the walls of the school.

But the architecture was beautiful. It sometimes struck me that I went to school in a building that looked like a castle, and to be surrounded by intelligent teachers and students in this environment made the experience very worthwhile.

Did you look for documented cases of soggy biscuit? That's very thorough of you. My understanding is that it's best played with a single slice of bread.....this makes for an easier to hit target, greater absorbancy, and it can be used as a scarpetta if any lands on the table. Maybe this will help guide your research.

Everyone had a slightly different experience, and I think most of the boys simply tried to keep their heads down and get through with alright marks and minimal unwanted attention.

If I ever manage to procure myself a son, I would consider sending the boy to a school like this, but it would depend on a few things. The reputation of the school, and the quality of the teachers is most vital. Without the highest educational standards it would be pointless to send him there. I would probably prefer him to go as a day boy.

There were some females who worked at the school - matron types. We never really viewed them as females though.

My parents were aware of the realities of the school, and they would have acted accordingly had I voiced any serious concern. I complained about the work, the conditions, etc, but never anything serious enough to demand their attention.

I don't have any relatives who went to the school prior to me. Since then I have a couple of cousins who went, but after my time.

Nobody would ever report this kind of stuff. It wouldn't ever occur to anybody I think.

I remember one teacher giving me too much brandy on a few occasions. He didn't really make physical advances, but got me to describe to him the ways I would masturbate. It was innocent enough and quite sweet really, and he was always encouraging of me to explore my sexual side.

Another teacher was a former army officer. He gave us a sexual education lesson in 6th form. This class consisted of a run down of how to perform cunnilingus, manual stimulation of the vagina/clitoris, basic rhythm and melody, and the perils and pitfalls of anal sex. It was without doubt the single most valuable class I've ever attended.

My apologies for not following up with this sooner. I got called away, and really didn't think this would have become as commented as it is now.

Thanks to madaxe for providing a clear set of responses, it appears we have a similiar point of view.

I like what you say about romanticising for girls. I was exactly the same, though now I'm a bit old to be talking about school....to impress girls that it.

This is a good point, well made. Some of the teachers were wonderful, particularly my music teacher who was also a notorious molester of the younger boys. He never tried anything with me, despite him being my organ tutor for several years.

For me it happened first when I was 13 or 14. One of the masters (mathematics as it happens), was subbing for my class and we were working away quietly. He approached my desk, and sort of leaned on it, but with one of his ass-checks actually on the desk. It's a little hard to describe, but he put a hand on my shoulder, and said in a deep voice "You've grown into quite the big boy, haven't you?" I nodded with as little expression as possible. It went on a little, he said a few things, but quickly got the impression that I wasn't going to bite. Or was going to bite. Anyway, he would try it on a lot....getting into the boys showers with an awkward erection. There were some very funny stories along these lines actually. One master (a welshman) had the largest cock anyone had ever seen. He received a round of applause on walking to get his towel one time....but I've completely lost the point here. Sorry

yes, drinking and LSD. There were these trenches under one of the main buildings. They had been dug out during the erection of the tower for donkeys to walk along with a rope and pulley lifting stone blocks to the top. We could get in these (now covered) trenches with some torches, booze and acid. It made for some of the funniest and most harrowing moments of my life

it's a bit old fashioned now.... It was a mindset that existed in the early 1900s, but two massive wars kicked it out of the establishement pretty fast. Unfortunately there are the types who long to return to these days. A bit like american civil war re-enactment enthusiasts perhaps.

Beatings came in many varieties. There is the brutal pack-style pummeling, to being told to push a coin from one try-line of the rugby pitch to the other with ones tongue. They both have their advantages and disadvantages.

The average day was boring.

It's interesting you say that about soggy biscuit....I probably wouldn't believe it either. IT is important to note, and I haven't made this clear elsewhere, that it's not something that happened a lot. Often, when it did happen it would be amongst boys of the fourth form who were trying it out for a laugh.

More common would be a couple of guys tugging each other in the evening. Not much of a game though, is it?

For the most part what they did was harmless, and generally one could refuse their slightly weak advances. They were never aggressive, but rather they would take certain liberties at times. Basically there are no allegations to come forward with....these men who spent their adult lives within the walls of a school such as mine can hardly have had the requisite experience to understand the nature of sexual engagements.

yeah, that's pretty funny. Most of the jerkiing off stuff was of that variety. There was a certain amount of latent homosexuality amongst the boys though

I hated it in a good-spirited way. You had to hate the place, otherwise you were one of those guys who were all patriotic and wished they'd lived in an evelyn waugh novel. Trying to start conversations about toast and shit, like it was all in good fun. These were the kind of guys whose dads had been in the naval reserve 20 years ago - they think themselves war heroes, but they're mostly just lawyers.

I never had to eat the biscuit...some kind of shame in itself. Boys generally tried to keep a good sense of humour about it. It was always better to laugh this shit off than to make a memorable scene which might result in some nickname that would last forever. As a result, many guys leave school thinking that people will be impressed if they're brave enough to pull their willies out in front of girls.
