Not so much fighting as war.
We had a kind of cold war at our school which lasted about two weeks and during which the destructive capabilities of our armaments escalated alarmingly.

We started off flicking paper clips at each other off rubber bands. If you fold the paper clip out so that there is only one curve, then make a bow out of the rubber band and your thumb and forefinger, you can make a fairly lethal weapon with it. It would raise small welts on peoples' arms or backs.
Bu the middle of the next week we had discovered increasingly better ammunition, the best of which were these heavy u-shaped nails with a spike on either end. They would chip chunks of plaster off walls and i managed to sink one about two centimetres into a chipboard. I'm fairly confident that had the threat not been adequate, and it had escalated to full on war with these, our lives would have been forfeit.
A few weeks later, after complaints by parents had caused a classroom pocket search, the teachers were quite alarmed at the savage nature of these weapons, and a couple of us were threatened with suspension should we be caught with them again.

A few weeks later, we were more interested in "chair mines". This would involve the covert placing of one or more drawing pins onto someone's seat just as they were about to sit down.
They was also outlawed by the powers that be after i placed one on Jesse's seat when we were in drama class, and were in the middle of acting out a scene to the rest of the class. Our poor drama teacher, who was a very nice young lady, was visibly disturbed that kids would do such horrible things to one another.
