If you don’t have a crazy (and probably weird af) story about your high school, then did you even go to high school? Honestly, putting a bunch of teens together every day in a building is sure to be the catalyst of a ton of strange shit, and I’m saying this from a place of experience — my high school was as wild as the rest.
So when Twitter user and Buzzfeed writer Katie Notopoulos asked her followers what “the incident” at their high school was, let’s just say that people had a lot to say.

As their senior prank, members of the class above me rappelled off the roof to remove the “a”, “n”, and “m” from the giant letters spelling out “RANUM HIGH” on the front of our building. It took days for the school to coordinate the removal of the remaining ones.

13. The “unapooper” smeared feces all over the bathrooms
