What objects have been thrown at you in anger?

My brother threw the classic Transfromer Mirage at me. We're talking metal, not that plastic crap they try to pawn off on kids as toys these days. It hit me in the head above the eye, I bled fiercely. Jonathon was so upset to see what he had done so I couldn't really get too mad at him.

Head wounds are bleeders. Just ask Michael Peterson, he knows all about head wounds.

I don't recall anything being thrown at me in anger. I haven't thrown anything at someone in anger. However, I shocked my roommate last semester senior year when I threw my hair brush across the room (it landed on the dresser where I was aiming - no where near her) because she had asked me for about the bazillioneth time what she should do about her boyfriend. I had already told her to dump the jerk a bazillion minus one times. I wish I had a picture of her face - she was very shocked.

I had a 4th grader throw a trashcan toward me in P.E. class one time. I suspended him for the trashcan toss and for his use of profanity.

His mom came in to complain and explained that he was a gifted child, and that he was frustrated, and that's why he used the profanity. My response to her was, "Yes, I know that your son is gifted. He used the words 'sh*t' and 'motherf*cker' correctly in a sentence. Still, I must suspend him from school for using those words in my P.E. class."

I can see you calmly saying this, excellent come back! I am surprised the I-RATE mother didn't start cracking up!

I would guess that the mother did not see the humor in CathyCA's statement.

No, she didn't see the humor. She was entirely convinced of her son's brilliance and blamed his outburst on his being too gifted to deal with elementary school.

Her clueless arrogance was astonishing.

That 30 minute parent-teacher conference is 30 minutes of my life that I can't get back, so I'm getting more mileage out of it by posting about it.

I wonder how the kid is doing today. His mother was not doing him any favors.

She must have been from Chapel Hell. Their kids do nothing wrong, it's everyone else's fault. [\sarcasm]

In 6th grade I skillfully sharpened my pencil as best I could. I went back to my desk, sat down, raised it over my head in my best Psycho-Anthony Perkins impersonation ...and on the forward thrust, I immediately thought better of it. As my arm came down, in argument with my mind, I short-stroked it and ended up with my only tattoo. It's a graphite one on the back of my left hand, between the 3rd and 4th knuckles.



I have no exes. I'm lucky that way.
I deserve a few things thrown my way.
