Get the plaid-collar worker mug.A shit school that is supposed to be good but is full of snakes, snitches and wanna be roadmen. The teachers act like they are on crack and get off on giving students detentions. The headteacher has an ankle fetish because he cares more about what socks your wearing than your education. Year 7ns think they are hard, year 8s act depressed, year 9ns are slags, year 10ns are boring and year 11ns are actually depressed. Welcome to 5 years of hell and retarded cunts :)
