Boy suspended for erection essay

2002-05-14 23:25:34+02 by Shawn 1 comments

  1. Class is given assignment to write an essay on the subject "How does your body betray you?"
  2. Boy writes story about a boy who is embarrassed when he is called to the front of the class while he happens to be sporting wood
  3. Boy is suspended from school for writing "sexually offensive" essay.

What the heck did they expect the kids to write about, with a topic like that??

There was a Beavis & Butthead episode like this. Van Driesen assigned them to do an oral report (heh heh) on a scientific phenomenon of their choosing, and they chose "The Mystery of Morning Wood."

I always find it reassuring when life imitates Beavis & Butthead.
