Construction: Monday, August 6th, all day

[needsaparrot]

Safety First signs still prominently displayed, the construction site is looking more and more like a building undergoing some renovations, and less like, well, a construction site. Today there's a small section of the school to work on that just needs roofing applied.

"Make the shingles jokes now; get 'em out of your system," Xander advises, pointing out the stacks of same, buckets of tar, and -- wait for it -- goggles and gloves.

Potpourri - Monday 8/6/2007 - Danger Shop

[motherboy-bluth.livejournal.com]

Buster had handwavily omg told the students to head to the Danger Shop this morning for class. When they arrived they would see that it was set up as an obstacle course with a Legends of the Hidden Temple Aztec tomb theme. Complete with a giant bust of Olmec, an Aztec god. Buster was standing at the beginning of the course in his army fatigues. When everyone had arrived he began to speak.

Announcements [Monday Mid Morning]

[umbitch.livejournal.com]

"Since it appears that none of you can follow even the simplest rule, I've deduced that you all are either as unintelligent as rocks or the rules, thus far, have been too lenient," were the words that greeted the students early this Monday morning.

"I, personally, would like to think it's the second option but I'm beginning to wonder if the failings of the previous principal, the lack of experience the core of teachers seems to have and the shoddy classes that are being taught don't contribute to the first option."

Now, she giggled, amused at herself. "Due to the heinous and obvious rule breaking done over the weekend after I issued my second educational decree, I would like to see the following people in my office: Dean Winchester, Seely Booth, Annette Hargrove, Inara Serra, and Tori Hanson."

There was a pause and then, "And now, rocks, I mean, students, of course, do have a pleasant day."

[Feel free to react! I'm going to try and punish all those that broke rules this weekend but work is busy today so it might take me a few days to get everyone. Those that were called, if you can't make it, don't worry. I just randomly picked from the PW post those that wanted evil to be done.]

[Creatures of Nature - 5th Period, 8/06]

[whathasbeenlost.livejournal.com]

When the class had filed into the room, D had several tables, each laid out with an egg, each one in a box and swaddled in a blanket for warmth. The room itself, in fact, was overly warm as well, though it didn't seem to bother D any.

"Today we will be looking at dragons," he said. "Or, more correctly, we will be looking at several types of creature which are likely to be called 'dragon', though the name may not be wholly correct in each instance.

"For this exercise, you will split into groups, each with an egg, and then deduce which type of 'dragon' comes out of it." D gestured to where each table had a stack of books on it. "Those will help you to figure it out, as long as you look carefully. Please be very gentle, but know that dragons, even small ones, can bite."

[OOC: Split up into groups of three, if you please. The egg will begin to hatch as soon as someone touches them and each comment will give a clue as to what type it is. OCD is coming up.

ETA: Commuting home now, will respond to tags ASAP upon getting home. HOME NOW.]

Sex Edder #5, Monday, Period 3

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

When the class assembled today, they'd find Gavin, not GOB, at the head of the area. Not that Gavin looks particularly pleased to be there or particularly comfortable about being up there in the first place.

"Um. GOB had a...sexual educational emergency," he stuttered, looking around, "and told me to teach the class. Of course, he didn't tell me what to teach so I'm not even sure what everyone knows and doesn't know."

He paused and looked around. "I'd say we could all just kiss each other to go against that kriffing headmaster but I don't know if we can do that in class. Can we do that in class? Is kissing allowed?"

And then, an idea hit him. "I know! We can all tell what we think GOB's first sexual experience was like! Go wild, go insane, make stuff up! Come on, he can teach us all manner of weird things so we can teach back!"

Library [08/06]

[likethegun]

Sam was still feeling very pissed off about Umbridge's announcement when he went to open the library in the morning.

Pie for Beginners - Week 5 - Monday 2nd period

[konoha-flash.livejournal.com]

“Good morning every one,” Yondaime smiled from the front of the class, showing no sign what so ever that he was worried about Deadpool being gone all weekend. “I hope everyone is feeling well and had a good week. Today we’re going to be moving away from normal dessert pies into the realm of savory dinner pies. The easiest I’ve found is called quiche, a French dinner pie that’s typically made with egg and cheese. What I’ve found though is that you can toss just about whatever you’d like into it as long as they are things that go together normally.” The grimace on his face said that he’d made some rather… noxious combinations over the weekend. “Typically that quiche is not considered ‘manly’ and so there was a time where quiche was only eaten by women. Which to me is just weird, but who knows. If you guys share your quiches fill me in on who takes more, men or women.” It really was just odd, food was food after all.

“So I’ve got a bunch of moddibleingredients on the table up front, grab what you want and work with a partner please for a great combination and I don’t care if you partner boy, girl, turtle or whatever. Also,” he added. “Please don’t forget that next week is when I want you each to bring in your own original pie recipe for us all to try. So have at it, and try not to burn the place down.”

How to be a Comic Book Superhero (Monday, outside the Kwik Stop)

[silent-robert.livejournal.com]

Jay and Silent Bob were bickering loudly as they lounged in front of the Kwik Stop.

"Look, Lunchbox, it says right fucking here that you're the sidekick and I'm the fucking hero! I'm Morris Day, you're the fucking Time!"

Bob shook his head emphatically, taking the magazine from Jay and shoving it at the nearest student. Ignoring Jay's repetitive and profanity-laced list of why Silent Bob (or Bluntman) was, according to the article, the sidekick in this dynamic duo, he turned to his ever-present whiteboard and wrote 'QUALITIES OF A GOOD SIDEKICK'.

Following the discussion, the whiteboard was cleared to provide that week's homework assignment.

'FIND AND TRAIN A SIDEKICK. May be useful in final class in two weeks.'

[[Major thanks to the_merriest, who reminded me that today is, in fact, Monday. While the article talks about Jay and Silent Bob (they're number, like 34 or something), the Fandom version is about Bluntman and Chronic. Yes? Yes.

ETA: I forgot the homework assignment. Yes, sidekicks will be welcome in the final workshop, coordinate with whoever you recruit whether or not they would like to take part.

OCD up, play away!]]

Dealing With Stupid People [Tuesday, August 7, 2nd period]

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

"Today, in a shocking change of pace, we'll deal with even more stupid people," Josh said, waving his hand around the Danger Shop at the simulated Yellow Line Metro stop.

"The combination of just waking up, not wanting to be going to work, not paying attention and being an idiot tourist combine to give Washington, DC some of the most ridiculous morning commutes in the country. You have two choices: You can get on the Metro," he waved his hand over his shoulder towards the station, "where you will have to get yourself a Metro pass, go in the correct direction, transfer through Metro Center, one of the scariest places at 8:15 in the morning known to man, and make your way from there to the Red Line and Farragut North. Which is by the White House and therefore awesome. If you screw up and end up at Farragut West, I will mock you. On this commute, you will encounter tour gaggles of idiot middle schoolers, women with baby carriages who won't move towards the center of the car, and people without enough coffee to be paying attention. You are not allowed to scream or throw things unless they really, really deserve it."

"Or! You can get in one of these handy cars--" he pointed to the provided cars, "get onto I-395, go across the 14th Street Bridge and try to find parking near the White House without getting run over by an illegal cab driver, cut off by someone who thinks merging is a sign of weakness, or exiting at the wrong spot and end up in a giant Pentagon parking lot. At which point I will also mock you."

He clapped his hands together. "Work in teams of two--that gets you into the High Occupancy Vehicle lane on the highway and makes for more entertainment on the Metro. First team to the fake White House gets a real White House tour from me this weekend."

He clapped his hands together. "Don't just stand there like you've wandered off the Greyhound from South Dakota! Move!"

Redemption: What A Crock [Period 6, Monday]

[sideburnsofwar.livejournal.com]

After the class assembled in the Danger Shop, Ares addressed them. "Now, one of the many things you'll come across in your journey for redemption is old enemies who won't believe in your change of heart. So today we're going to see how you, and your sidekicks, handle meeting up with an old enemy who still bears a grudge."

"So, let's do this."
