Bell

A hollow shaped object that makes a sound ‘ring’ or ‘ding’ when hit by a simple stick, sphere, or cube.

Can be either electronic or manually operated.

The bell usually is ignored by many Teachers, who consider it as not a mean of dismissal. Unlike the teacher’s opinion, the bell actually is used in school for either dismissal, or fire drills, a student pleasure.
Bell: rings

Teachers: The bell doesn’t dismiss you, I do.

Students: fuck my life already....

Bell

A little city located in the L.A. County of California, which recently has been surrounded by corruption and drama. Trying to get back on its feet with new elected officials because the ex mayor is currently awaiting trial because he screwed residents over a million dollars. The other city officials are not exempt, they're scum as well. Glad that city has new elected officials and is cleaning up with a new mayor. Also home to the Bell High School Eagles. We've got a bunch of burger joints as well. And Bell is heavily populated with a bunch of Hispanics and Arabs.
Random Guy 1: Dude, Maywood is so much better than Bell.
Random Guy 2: Oh stfu, your crappy city was involved in corruption as well.
Random Guy 1: Oh shit, that's right. My bad.
Random Guy 2: At least Bell is cleaner and a better looking city than Cudahy and Maywood combined.
