Bet
For a dare i once ate a whole bulb of garlic. It was just before our English lesson which was with Miss Wilson the only fit teacher in the entire school and subject of many adolescent fantasies when someone dared me to eat it. Being young, gullible and eager to impress my fellow class mates i scoffed the raw cloves down with relish* never thinking of the devastating consequences of my actions. It didn't taste too bad actually but jesus the smell! The teacher and anyone else who got within ten feet of me recoiled in horror for about a week after ingesting it as i seemed to have pure garlic puree sweating from every pore. It really wasn't worth the brief moment of glory it garnered me and was soon supplanted when Ian Trennon stacked a load of wires and crocodile clips together in a physics lesson and plugged it into a transformer to see what happened.

I also wrote the entire lyrics of West End Girls onto a tech drawing desk along with "Rooster smells" and "Adolf Hitler European Tour 1939-45" Strangely they made me scrub the lyrics but left the other graffiti. Maybe teachers weren't 80's electronica fans

*No actual relish was consumed in this story

Length? It took the entire desk up
