Laxative sugar cubes
Way back when (ok, so 5 years ago) when I was in year 10 at school (gosh time flies), it was a biology lesson, and we were making ethanol/alcohol, and as you know, yeast needs sugar to work, now to avoid us eating the sugar cubes, (because as we know, all schoolkids love sugar), the school used the ones that have laxatives in them for the old people who can't shit.

There was a kid in our class, who was the butt of all jokes, although in fairness he complained too much, and blamed everything on me (including blaming someone throwing a pen at him on me, when I was on holiday in Scotland hahah!), so he had this coming...

we sneakily pocketed some of the sugar cubes and at lunch time put them into his drink. Three hours later, just seeing him leap out of his chair and try to calmly excuse himself to go to the toilet, and then leg it down the hallway was fantastic.

He came back with a bright red face, ahh, good times, good times

Oh come on
Rather than just buying the occasional box of sugar cubes the school keeps a special stash of laxative-dosed ones?

MUST. TRY. HARDER.

Um
Schools don't have the cash to buy extra 'laxative' sugar cubes.

Health and Safety (we all love that!) dictates that you wouldn't be able to use something laced with kids just in case some fool decided to eat some.

C- Could do better.

Agreed.
1) There are laws against introducing a noxious substance into foodstuffs without the consumer's knowledge. "Noxious" can mean any drug or component that you're not aware of. To wit;

"24. Whosoever shall unlawfully and maliciously administer to or cause to be administered to or taken by any other person any poison or other destructive or noxious thing, with intent to injure, aggrieve, or annoy such person, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and being convicted thereof shall be liable ... to be kept in penal servitude .... "

(Offences Against the Person Act 1861)

2) Any school that was prepared to pay money for laxatives probably wouldn't be too concerned about a few peenies for lost sugar cubes.

Thus - SHENANEGANS, sir.

Indeed.
Badly parsed, too...
