The Weird Kid In ClassThere was a kid in my class who stood up every day and told everyone he had new shoes. This went on for weeks, and we all thought him nuts. Then, one day, he stood up and told us a long story about why his family were moving to another part of the country, and how excited he was. The next thing we heard was that he'd died in a plane crash.
Let's hear about the weird kid in your class...

My old French teacherWas full of these stories. The best ones she used to tell involved some school in London in the eighties. It was a bit of a backwards school, and there were a load of skinheads. Once they locked her in a cupboard for the entire lesson, but the best story was about a kid I'll call Peter (as I forget his name)
Apparently this kid was a bit weird and all the skinheads took great delight in tormenting him to see what reaction they'd get out of him. One day they tormented him so much (I think my French teacher had given up trying to control them through fear of being locked in cupboards again, or through cruel amusement probably) that he hid under a table and started crying. Eventually the teacher stopped laughing long enough to try to get him to come out and as he moved his hand away from his face an absolutely massive bogey string attached itself from the hand to the nose. On seeing this Peter's face was an absolute picture of pure terror and he started screaming, which somehow made it longer.
Hmm. It was funny when she told it anyway. Probably the accompanying actions.
