He beat the s**t out of the disabled kid ( who was well loved by everyone and told dad jokes). The problem was that kid got a brain bleed and almost died, so he went to prison for attempted manslaughter. What did disabled kid do to deserve this? Allegedly, he told a somewhat flirty joke to the popular guy's sister (who was 1 grade below us). I think it was along the of "if you were a desert , you'd be a cutie pie" kind of joke. His parents don't even visit him in prison.

Took pictures of himself getting head from the football coaches daughter and slipped a copy under the coaches office door as revenge for some slight against him.


He was one of the top football players.


He was dumb enough to think the coaches daughter wouldn’t say who it was in the picture. Of course she told, and of course he knew, and of course he was kicked off the team. Few months of disciplinary actions after because he sort of spiraled and he was sent to one of those schools for people with difficulty functioning in normal schools.


I don’t know if it ruined his life, but it ruined his trajectory and he wound up dropping out of the local community college instead of going off to Florida State like he had planned.

They poured some chemicals on the football field to spell out our graduation year for a senior prank. It killed the grass and ruined the soil under it.

The grass and soil on a football field are specific and expensive. It cost 10s of thousands of dollars to repair it on such short notice.

The school wanted to be lenient. However, the insurance company required them to get the police involved to cover the claim. So they were arrested.

Four of them in a car. Driver going *very* fast on an expressway late at night. Lost control of the vehicle and flipped it, ejecting three of them not wearing a seatbelt. Driver got rolled over by the car and was killed instantly, second was killed from the injuries, third had severe brain damage and requires assistance until his dying day. One passenger was wearing a seatbelt and left with minor injuries except the trauma of watching two of his friends die and one of his friends become severely disabled.

edit: many of you have asked where this was. it was upstate ny, i dont remember the year but at least 15 years ago. given how many of you asked where it was, or shared similar stories, i think the overall theme here is: **wear the seatbelt every time**.

I had a friend who was a straight A student, everyone loved him and he came from a good middle class family. His day was a solicitor, I think. Never put a foot out of line.

One day he came in and set off half a dozen smoke bombs in maths class. Turns out his dad was part of the sealed knot, an English civil war reenactment society. The smoke bombs were used by his dad to simulate the smoke from cannons.

He was quickly suspended and then sent for private schooling. Never seen a turn around as quick. Apparently they are dangerous and his dad had signed something to say they were in a secure location. Not something you should steal, smuggle into secondary school and throw at the maths teacher because you forgot your homework.

Not dumb, actually one of the smartest people I've ever met, just not what we expected from him. He was absolutely brilliant and got shipped off to a special academy for genius kids for the last year or two of high school. The pressure broke him and he died homeless on the sidewalk in his early 30's.

Edit to clarify since I typed this too quickly: The special school isn't what messed him up, it was the intense pressure on him to succeed. The man spent his life constantly being told he had to keep going further and try harder and that he was going to change the world. That's a lot to put on someone, especially a kid.

Back circa 2006-07 when smart phones and sending nudes were relatively newish, a well liked popular girl in her junior year had everything going for her. She was involved in practically every extracurricular, sport, cheer leading, etc.. She wasn't a bully like the stereotypical "popular" trope, and actually talked to everyone. She even tried to get me to come out of my shell when I was a sophomore going through my goth phase.

However, she sent a topless picture of herself to her boyfriend. The boyfriend sent it to all of his friends, and said friends sent it to their friends. This was a small high school of about 400 students, so news spread like fire. She was humiliated and her parents forced her to home school through her senior year. I never heard about what happened to her after that, but it was sad to see her fall from such a height. Also, considering the legal grey area surrounding minors sending other minors nudes at the time, I'm not sure if she or her boyfriend were ever prosecuted for distribution of CP or revenge porn.

Sitting on railings. Just don't do it.

I know one girl who I went to high school with who was sitting on someone's deck railing at a party. Fell backwards, broke her back, is in a wheelchair to this day.

Another kid was sitting on the railing at a Skytrain station (Vancouver's subway that is largely on elevated track), fell backwards a full story onto concrete and died, right in front of his girlfriend. Just one second chatting happily to his loved one, the next second he's gone, the next second he's dead.

It seems like such a dumb little thing, but it's so not worth it to sit on a railing.

My mom went to school with a popular kid who was DUI and crashed with another popular and generally more well liked kid. The passenger was badly hurt, the driver only superficially. He didn't want to get caught so left, leaving the passenger to die on the side of the road. It was later determined that he would have absolutely lived if the driver called 911. He was still alive for hours.

Driver got caught anyway. I think he's out and still lives in the small town he grew up in, and it's a "no one talks about it, but everyone knows" kind of situation. He has no real social life bc of it.

Not the dumbest by any means. Most of the popular kids I went to school with are living their best lives now.

I did go to school with a popular kid in the year above me who tried to break up an argument outside of the pub. Punched to the ground, kicked repeatedly in the head like a football, never made it out of the coma.

It made national headlines, moreso because it involved underage drinkers and exposed a scandal of city centre pubs not checking ID.

He got hammered at 19 and rammed his car into a pole going 60ish, flinging his body from the car and dying on impact.

I hear our high school reunions are still very weird, as we had the one big "reunion" the year after graduation at his funeral.

He was way cooler than me, but because the system sorted Gen Ed and APs by last name, we became friends from having so many classes we hated together.

But he got on with everyone, and everyone showed up to say goodbye.

This guy was super confident and would party out, so when he was around 18, he had several girls in tow. But some years later he was still that same teenager personality, but now in his 20s, the girls were no longer impressed, so he did what probably made sense to him; started hitting on grossly underage girls instead, buying them beer and apparently had sex with one of them.

When it came out, no one was super impressed. Especially the judge.
