PE Lessons
For some they may have been the highlight of the school week, but all we remember is a never-ending series of punishments involving inappropriate nudity and climbing up ropes until you wet yourself.
Tell us about your PE lessons and the psychotics who taught them.

Who the hell decided this was a good idea?
Anyway, this school's mouthbreathing knuckledragger decided to give us a reason to try harder. So one good mark every time you came back in a faster time than before. Some people figured out that you'd improve if you tried hard. Me, I decided that my digital watch had a stopwatch for a reason. So, gimp it round like a dying albatross the first week for a baseline, then aim for a few seconds quicker next time, and so on and on.
Worked, too.
Next year, summer term, same challenge. So, same strategy. I did wonder if they'd catch on - but this *is* PE teachers we're talking about. I got away with it again.
(Still, I needed those good marks, as I had a shedload of bad marks to offset)
Edit: damn, forgot the length joke. I never seem to manage to pull that one off...
