high school

A place where (in theory, for all of you super seniors) you are supposed to spend 4 years of your life and get a nice education, whether it be in academics, social, etc.

considering the 15 pages of people giving cliche definitions of "prep" and "goth" i just felt the need to say i have either missed a memo or went to a high school that wasn't actually based off of a cheesy high school movie. yeah, kids dressed into some of those categories at my old high school but there were no designated places where different stereotypes ate, and as for cliques, lottss of kids were into multiple "groups".

i dunno, maybe i went to a fairy tale high school? i just don't understand what all of the bitching was about. and drama? if you don't hang around people who are into drama...your life WON'T actually be like a wannabe episode of laguna beach, surprise surprise.
Immature High schooler: Look at the nerd in the khakis and button up shirt and glasses. Bet he's a virgin.

Person who happens to be friends with both him and the immature high schooler: Actually he's cool, we went to a Lamb of God concert last week then he helped me fix my Ipod

Shall I resort to over-used phrases?

Don't judge a book by its cover, things are never as they seem, it's always darkest before the dawn (that one refers to highschool in general, in case you are having a shitty time)

High School

1. An experience very similar to being damned to hell, except that you are actually allowed and encouraged to leave after four years and there is a chance that you will not be on fire the entire time. Also for some strange reason that has yet to be determined, there are some moments during your time there where you actually won't hate absolutely everything.
You go into high school knowing that you will be subjecting yourself to pain and suffering and you rationalize it by telling yourself that all of that pain and suffering will be worth it by the time it is over because then you won't have to deal with it anymore. No one understands why we do this.

High School

The place where you become the person that you've sworn you would never become.
I remember when you said that you would never smoke pot, go out to parties and fuck every gut that you meet. Guess you went to high school.

High School

A detention center formerly used to torture POWs during war to extract information, their use was outlawed by the Geneva Convention of 1929 as a war crime. After 1864, and the closure of these facilities, the torturers, also known as "teachers," often remained inside, due to the fact that they were now social outcasts as a result of their work. Sadistic parents often used them to punish their children. The punishment's popularity grew until the 1960's when the punishment became so widespread that many parents began to falsely believe it was mandatory to send their children to these facilities on a daily basis. The UN is still trying to root out all of these illegal facilities, however the popularly held belief that they are a necessary component of creating a functional society has greatly hindered their efforts to remove the illegal facilities.
"If you don't tell us what we want to know, we'll send you to the High School. And we both know you don't want us to do that."

"A detaining power may not coerce information to be given by afore mentioned prisoners through the use of physical or mental torture, including, but not limited to, physical abuse of the prisoner, detaining a prisoner at a High School, physically harming their families, detaining families at a High School, the use of toxic substances on prisoners, etc."

high school

1. A place that supposedly teaches you and prepares you for adulthood.

2. Absolute hell

3. Where all of your confidence, self worth and self esteem go straight down the toilet.
High Schooler - Dude why don't they teaches us necessary things in high school like how to get a credit card and how to pay your taxes and all that shit? Instead they ask us 'where is x'
High Schooler 2 - I dunno dude. What a shithole.

High School

According with Bowling For Soup, a period in your life that never ends, where everyone is obsessed with dumb things like sex, money, look, and trends
The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys
Who's kinda cute and who's just a mess
And you still don't have the right look
And you don't have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
High school never ends
