I'll bet it was for making lewd and obscene phone calls to the front office. ;)

I got suspended twice for flipping out on dumbasses. It hasn't happened in like 6 years, though.

I was suspended a lot. I even had an inschool suspension because I guess a regualr suspension was like a reward for me. But then the inschool suspension was too because the teacher was nice and let me do my own thing. They returned me back to my regualr classroom though.

No... it was a lot worse. Suffice it to say that when I hear something in the news about an otherwise quiet kid who did something bizarre, I understand.

I was expelled for bringing in a copy of Masters of the Universe. Apparently, owning that film is a criminal offense. :(

I didn't care enough about school to do anything to get me into trouble (except disregading classwork)

to tell you the truth I'm still not sure how I graduated, even six years after the fact

I had to be taken out of school three times in my first two years of elementary school.
I'm still not sure how I graduated thirty years after the fact! :!: 8O

I've been given detention and suspension countless times. I've lost count of the numbers of times I'd have to see the principle. In addition, I've been expelled from all of the public and private schools in the area. It was all for trivial BS easily attributed to AS, with the exception of fighting.

Why, yes, yes it is.

At least it's not a capital offense, though - that would be Ishtar.

My uncle is still on Death Row for buying a ticket to that movie. :(
