I threw a paper dart

In a moment of mischief I threw a paper dart to my friend which contained a note with sassy remarks on it. Unfortunately it was intercepted by the teacher who sent me to the office with his own note. When I returned I found that sitting on those hard chairs was somewhat of a problem!

@Alfred22 And did it? I presume the answer will be yes.

@AbbeyP A rather clear memory, especially if it is a time you forgot and plopped right down, only to be well reminded as you regretted not lowering your bottom gently!

Quite the challenge to sit still.

@donnar738 Sitting still was impossible but you could keep the squirming down and social pressure required you to do so. Everyone watched you sit down the first time after you returned.

Yes, those chairs are horrible. They should invest in better quality for the tender bottoms of young children.

We called them paper airplanes but I suspect they were the same. I once circulated a written version of an anatomically incorrect limerick. It was in my handwriting so no denying authorship. Big consequences were threatened but none was actually implemented. The warning sufficed to prevent a repetition ever (by me, that is).

I am not surprised.

Back then, every student's worst fear at school was being sent to the office for a meeting with the PriEducation.ncipal and the Board of Education.

You never through a real paper dart unless there's a needle in it a tiny one

Was the principal/paddler male or female?
