GettingCrapPastTheRadar
#55739
When advertising on the morning announcements that the cafeteria of this troper's high school would now be selling donuts: "What has a circle AND a hole?"
#55740
This troper was once reading a Science Textbook passage aloud when he accidentally said "Orgasms" as opposed to "Organisms". Thankfully the teacher didn't notice.
#55741
Same troper 2 years later had to write a letter for English, so he wrote it to "Fuh Q".
#55742
This Troper, in English class, managed to pull this off while ending a Round Robin-style story session. The last person had written "WHO WAS I? HANSEL OR GRETEL????" This Troper ended it with "Neither. I was the witch, and this time around, those kids got properly baked." Sadly, nobody got it, because the sentence "Damn they tasted good." was added after to get it past the radar. In retrospect, the addition was far creepier.
#55743
This troper, in middle school, had to make an poster for one of the school's features, so he choose after school suspension (detention). when i put this into an acrynom, it was A.S.S. this made it onto the main hall's wall.
#55744
In music class, we had to write and perform an interview with someone that knew Mozart, and I chose his neighbor. The interview went a little something like this: #QUOTE# Interviewer: Now I understand that Mozart was quite talented. What did you think about him? #QUOTE# Neighbor: Yes, he was pretty good at writing and playing music. In fact, he learned to play the clavichord when he watched his sister play all by himself! #QUOTE# Interviewer: (In suspicious tone) And how do you know this? #QUOTE# Neighbor: Oh, um...I was...babysitting.
#55745
Nobody caught it.
#55746
A friend of this troper was on the editing committee for the (school-wide) posters for their high school's short story competition. Behind the main text was an out-of-focus background of an angled page that was barely readable. Being mid-2005 and soon after the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, you can guess what it might have said. kills Dumbledore. Dumbledore was killed by Snape. Snape is the killer of... etc
#55747
Once, when I helped write and preformed a PuppetShow with my sister for a local talent show, I pitched in a bit about *ahem* "magic potion", that basically turned one of the characters into a drunk TalkativeLoon. This didn't go without notice, however, but I convinced the librarian running it that it was a ParentalBonus that the kids wouldn't get (note that the talent show was aimed at toddlers). This made it into the final product, a personal CrowningMomentOfAwesome for me.
#55748
This trope kind of happened during the morning announcements at This Troper's high school and was {{lampshaded}}. Needless to say that announcements like this at my school tend to be a bit lame. I can't remember what the announcement was actually about: -> Singing Girl on Intercom:Every little thing she does is magic ->Every little thing she do just turns me on! -> Second Girl:Whoa whoa whoa Casey! Don't you think that's a little inappropriate for singing at school?
#55749
A related story: near the end of This Troper's senior year of high school, the first remark made by our title announcer (for the morning announcements) one day was: "Seniors are in the home stretch, and [our news anchors] are at third base." The two anchors happen to be boyfriend and girlfriend. A few of us got it right away. The anchors didn't until someone told them later.
#55750
The one-act play this troper submitted for performance by his school's drama department (and it was accepted!). Highlights included references to heroin and pornography and a mishmash of vagina euphemisms.
#55751
I once got away with saying "Death by Snu-Snu" because ''nobody got the reference''.
#55752
I'm pretty sure that they aren't allowed to punish you for watching shows that can't be shown at school.
#55753
This Troper has taken part in the One Act Play at school every year I've been able. This year we did a peice called "The Pot Boiler" that parodied such productions, complete with a play within a play. Now, the rules specified that we weren't allowed to use weapons (real OR fake). So we got two different types of fake guns for a scene that involved the characters in the play within a play in a stand off (and the ending where we all "shot" the playwrite). About 4-5 toy cap guns (which we painted black) and guns with flags that shot out reading "bang!". We got away with it.
#55754
This troper remembers a sign at a local [=McDonald's=] back around 2002 that seemed to be made of this; with a picture of a girl dressed like a hula dancer...with "I like fries with my shake" written underneath it. I had to resist the urge to crack up; especially since it reminded me of a quote from {{EarthBound}}, which I had been playing a lot around that time. That sign was only up for a few weeks before it was taken down, so somebody working there probably caught the meaning and pulled the sign.
#55755
This troper's friend drew a blonde boy on a poster for an assignment in class. When I asked her what I should write and she said, "Take this boy's innocence away". I wanted to write it down because of the obvious implications and how in the book we read to go with the assignment, dealt with loss of innocence.
#55756
In 7th Grade, this troper included a reference to a French Tickler in a story he wrote. The teacher didn't catch it.
#55757
For anyone else who doesn't get it, that's a type of condom.
#55758
Earlier this year, the school had a special event where the Newboys (You're a Jerk) performed. During said event, there was a dance contest for who can do the best Jerk dance called the "Jerk Off." Yeah. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't believe me.
#55759
A similar contest happened at my school one day between me (a theater smart kid) and the resident casanova, except minus new boys and school-funded, but we still called it a jerkoff
#55760
In this troper's homeroom there was a 'special' African-American kid who always danced and jerked in homeroom. I hit on this girl he also liked so he challenged me to a danceoff. I told him I didn't want to jerk off with him in the middle of homeroom and the teacher didn't say anything. Needless to say everyone was shocked at my joke.
#55761
This troper's friend once told him about a project he did in class. The project required creating a product and then selling it. He created a line of salad dressings. The names were along the lines of "Yo Momma's Sweet Sauce","Yo Brotha's Ranch Sauce" etc. The teacher never caught on, despite the muffled giggles.
#55762
Recently this troper pulled one off while playing a card game, one of her classmate was being a show off an winning every game, half way through the second game she insulted him by saying, Stop playing with your "Deck" except when she said Deck it came out as "DICK" in everyones minds leading to lots of blushing and laughter, after a short pause this troper finished by adding "of cards."
#55763
This troper's Language teacher is the absolute master of this. Perhaps the most hilarious innuendo he ever made was simply pointing out ''Shakespeare's'' innuendo in ''Romeo and Juliet''. "She will not ope her lap to... saint seducing gold", anyone?
#55764
Two examples: My teacher actually ''spelled out'' the word FUCK in one occasion, and me and a friend got away with talking about rape in front of a teacher.
#55765
This troper had a science teacher who also was good at this. Once we were studying hydroelectricity when he pulled up a picture of a dam only to yell loudly "This is one DAM picture!" Of course when he said he was obviously saying damn. The whole entire class burst into laughter.
#55766
This tropette's social studies teacher did almost the exact same thing when we learned about the Hoover Dam. Actually, he did it twice: once he said that "...they had to move the DAM thing," and another time "Daaaaaaam!" Heck, he even said that his Secret Service codename would be Jackhammer, and his brother would be...Jackass! I guess you had to be there, but it was like our class' own CrowningMomentofFunny.
#55767
In school, a friend and I were writing a childrens' book for a competition. I decided to name a brand in the story "Reckuf Foods". For other reasons, the project never saw completion.
#55768
In this troper's geometry class the learned about the un-shortcut for triangles Angle-Side-Side or SSA or ASS. This troper always wrote it as "ASS".
#55769
Associative property, anyone? Once my math teacher mess up and taught us to use Assoc instead of...you know what.
#55770
Oh ''man'', don't get me started on this. Once, in sixth grade, we were learning abot the associative property in math class, and our teacher used this to help us remember: #QUOTE# Teacher: Let's say that Bryce and Elise wanted to associate with each other one day. The next, Bryce might want to associate with Rachel, or Elise might want to associate with Devin.
#55771
This troper and his friends almost fainted right there.
#55772
This troper was to write an educational comic book over agnosticism. That's got potiental as is, but the ten characters involved share one house with five rooms. Do the math. It didn't go without acknowledgement by the teacher and doubletakes from classmates though. (I didn't draw anything... naughty!)
#55773
This troper's 2010 high school performance of ''OnceUponAMattress'' featured the men slapping their female partners' butts during "Opening For a Princess", and were in turn kneed in the crotch. One or two of the girls let their guy actually slap them instead of faking it.
#55774
Does that mean they ''really'' got kneed in the crotch?
#55775
This troper went to a family festival where a performer was doing random stunts (juggling fire, etc). While doing this however, he makes many jokes that only older people will fully appreciate. The most triumphant example of this trope happened when he made a joke about gay sex. Then he lampshaded it: "If your kids get that joke, you only have yourself to blame". Oh how I love Toronto.
#55776
My dad comes from Maryland, and my grandpa still lives there. We visit him after Christmas. It might help to say that Maryland is known for its crustacean delights, a fact that I regularly exploit for the sake of crab jokes.
#55777
A case I was privy to(well, might not be as much this as What Was The Radar Thinking In The First Place): My dad's girlfriend has a daughter in elementary school. According to the girlfriend, there exists a copy (in the school library) of The Flaxen-Haired Girl whose artwork was done... in an archaic fashion, sans AnimeAnatomy. They had since checked it out before she (again, the girlfriend) noticed and (last time I checked) made plans to call them out on it.
#55778
This Troper had a teacher that asked who bought their vibrator to school when ever a cell phone went off
#55779
This Troper works for a company where she is required to follow up on documentation for various purposes. She takes great pleasure in typing the date, followed by "fu documents" in the status screen. At least one co-worker has gotten a good laugh from it.
#55780
This Troper has a friend who had to do a presentation on some sort of invention for our engineering class. His choice? The Shake Weight. Our teacher didn't notice.
#55781
Subverted. A friend of a friend once did a fully serious, A+ standard project on bulimia in school, but decided to close with the line, ''"Bulimia: all the taste and none of the calories"''. She might have gotten suspended (hence the subversion), but damn all if it wasn't her {{Crowning Moment of Funny}}.
#55782
This tropette's 7th grade social studies teacher taught us an acronym, RAPPS. When writing it in parenthesis, he stopped for a minute and laughed. The class looked at the board and saw he'd written "(RAP," which (the way he wrote it) kind of looked like "crap."
#55783
This troper found RuleThirtyFour in effect on {{Google}} ''on moderate safesearch'' when searching for pics of a manga character. Not just one pic, but quite a few. Granted I should have added the name of the manga since most of it wasn't what I was looking for, but ''still''. Then I got curious, switched to ''strict safesearch and there's still a bunch of it''.
#55784
This Troper to, got FUUUUUU- comics about Minecraft, while looking for pictures about a fantasy story we needed to write. Same with a YAOI FANGIRLS pic.
#55785
This troper remembers a few jokes back in Highschool. One being Refering to C.A.P.P (Career and personal Planning) to Career Reform and Personal Planning.
#55786
Slight subversion. in the third grade, my class was singing a song about Ohio, that included hand signs demonstrating, the questionable lyric being "with two o's and hi in the middle", being represented with the hands being formed to make two o's, and then waving in between where you made the o's. The boys had to sing to the girls, I forgot what to do, and accidentally doing the universal hand sign for sex.(me not knowing what it was at the time till years later.) Needless to say, the teacher covered her mouth, and any girl in the class who knew what I was doing had gasped. I didn't get suspended, on the basis that I had no clue what it meant.
#55787
This troper's religion class recently started Sex Ed (go figure) and we got a quiz in the first lesson so the teacher could gauge our level of knowledge. The questions were all pretty simple reproductive stuff, so the troper's group decided they might as well have some fun with it. Answers included:
#55788
''What is another name for the male orgasm?'' -- Money shot (struck out and replaced with "Ejaculation")
#55789
''At what stage of the menstrual cycle is a woman ovulating?'' -- Day 14 (try not to get "day" and "age" mixed up)
#55790
''What part of a woman's body is the penis inserted into during reproduction?'' -- Optional (struck out) Even better was the teacher bursting out laughing while she corrected ours.
#55791
This troper's Spanish teacher in 5th grade once read aloud a Spanish sentence which translated loosely as "Oh Fernando, I am so happy!" but was said in a voice that sounded rather... odd. HilarityEnsues.
#55792
This troper's 8th grade history teacher would often have FunWithAcronyms to help us take notes. While explaining the Boston Massacre he wrote, "British soldiers '''f'''ire '''u'''pon '''c'''olonists '''k'''illing several". The entire class started laughing and the teacher hastily erased it once he realized his mistake.
#55793
This troper's high school history teacher did a lot of this. #QUOTE# -They froze Japan's AAAAAASSSSSSSS...etts. Hah, you guys thought I was going to say asses. #QUOTE# -Teenagers liked the car because it gave them more privacy. Since the car industry was booming,all related industries were booming; the steel industry,glass,leather...the condom industry...Just checking if you guys were awake! And, looking through the quotes she has saved, found another from a biology teacher. #QUOTE# -For example, you and breed a horse and a mule to make an ass, but you cannot breed two asses to make another ass. Although it happens far too much in our society. *pause* Never mind.
#55794
My best friend has been learning Spanish and German just so he can insult people in front of his teachers.
#55795
This troper had an 11th grade English teacher way back in 2001 who was a few months from retirement. He didn't censor his mouth, he showed us R-rated movies without permission slips - his excuse? "What's the worst they can do, FIRE ME?".
#55796
The absolute most triumphant example of his non-censoredness was when he told the rambunctious class to quiet down, and two boys in the corner ignored him. He went right over to them and said "This is one of those things that Joe Jacobs is not supposed to say, but GOD DAMNIT, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!" The class had been deathly silent during that outburst, but we all erupted into uncontrollable laughter afterwards except for the two who had been admonished.
#55797
Played straight with a teacher and subverted by this troper when a classmate insulted this troper in a poster for a mock-election and the teacher didn't realize it until this troper told him to look up the word 'menarche' in a dictionary. Aparently the other student and this troper (Both male) were the only two in the class who knew what the word meant.
#55798
Another example from this troper's high school was a morning announcement reminding the students about crazy sock day. The reminder started with the phrase "Rock out with your socks out!" Our teacher had no idea what it was a reference to.
#55799
This is the Assoc Troper from above. A week ago, in my social studies project about surviving the Sahara desert back then, I snuck in this little jewel: "During a sandstorm, use your camel (for protection).
#55800
This troper had a friend in high school who had a school hoodie with her first initial and last name printed on the back. It read: "P. Ness". It turned out she had gotten it printed with the first-initial-last-name format rather than the more typical last-name-only for ''exactly this reason.''
#55801
It has become a RunningGag at my school that one of our English teachers sees phallic imagery everywhere. That said, he's also one of the most interesting instructors at the school, and when he ''does'' bring up sexual overtones in a work... He's quite tactful, if funny, and mostly spot-on. However, he's put crap past the radar on other fronts numerous times, in particular when he played the copy of Swans' ''Cop'' I'd given him during homeroom. Why no-one noticed the gut-wrenching industrial noise pouring out of his computer speakers (complete with obscene lyrics) at quarter to 8 in the morning, I'll never know... My former American History teacher actually played this one ''far'' straighter, however; JerkWithAHeartOfGold barely covers it, he was just ''warped''. The man managed to keep his job while making morbid jokes about juvenile cancer, mainly because he ran the school's cancer research charity. So, ''yeah''.
#55802
This troper was riding with her co-workers last night to go out to dinner, and we're driving behind this car with a custom plate trying to figure out what XESTTUB stands for. Test tube, maybe? Then one of the guys realizes what it reads ''backwards'' and we start cracking up, partly at the audacity of the guy who got '''that''' past the censors at the DMV!
#55803
This troper's friends in sixth grade had to make a list of words and give it to the teacher, who read it aloud. The list was "Sofa; King; Re; Todd; Did." Say it out loud a few times. Also, her eighth grade Core class had to write and perform brief plays involving the American revolution. One group got away with making a British soldier say to someone "You filthy wanker!".
#55804
Incidentally, this troper recalls a very similar meme to the crap-passing PINGAS that circulated his Middle School for a while. The play, ''You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown'' closes with a song called "Happiness," which is based upon the Charles Schultz Peanuts book, ''Happiness is a Warm Puppy''. The musical director cut the singers off during a rehearsal to tell them that their singing was not audible enough. She said to them, "Guys, you need to project your voice more, because I can't hear the '''ha-''' part; I can only hear the '''-piness'''". She realized her mistake about a half second later, and howls of laughter ensued. From then on, it quickly became a schoolwide gag to sing the song in such an altered form, with resulting lyrics like "Penis is playing the drum in your own school band, and penis is walking hand in hand." It's even funnier if you try to envision it.
#55805
This tropette is a member of a moderately popular Warrior Cats RPing website, which is supposed to be for all ages. She and a friend had characters, the tropette's from a real Clan and the friend's from a rogue one, who had to have a "forbidden love" for a site plot, but out of sheer boredom, the two made a thread about the tropette's character sneaking off to see the friend's. The thread ended when they were in the friend's character's den, ''sharing a nest.'' It actually ended there because the friend was up really late and, since he wasn't bored anymore, he decided that was a good place to stop. But the tropette took advantage of it and made a thread about her character returning to her Clan, and went on about "she had only gone to see him, she hadn't meant for all...''that'' to happen..." and "thinking of it made her heart pound faster and her legs grow weak," and "she was surprised at herself that she hadn't been able to sleep much in (rogue Clan) anyway...". The tropette was basically constantly making references about "what they had done." The staff didn't catch the hints (and if they did, they probably thought they were too subtle to be noticed by little kids and ignored them), but a staffer would have definitely caught it if it was part of the plot for the tropette's character to have found out she was pregnant later (the thread about sneaking off and all wasn't an important or designated part of the plotline).
#55806
A bunch of girls from my parallel class got away with singing "And all that jazz" from {{Chicago}} at a concert at our school. In ''straps ''. And the (female) music teacher who actually coached them got away, too. You should know, that I`m at a German school, which is attended by students from ''ten'' to about 18. Well, even if someone didn`t know what the text was about, because he didn`t understand english properly... the performance was rather ... suggestive.
#55807
This troper wrote a first person SchoolgirlLesbians drabble for school, and her friends thought it was from a male point of view since it didn't show any hints of a female protagonist. She hasn't told them yet.
#55808
This Troper managed to sneak a gay character into an English short story by mentioning a boyfriend for him. Not only did the teacher not notice, she actually asked for a copy to show other people. Success.
#55809
This other troper has a similar story. I'm a BYU student. For my creative writing class, I wrote a play about two gay guys who fall in love and get kicked out of BYU. The teacher loved it and talked in depth about it in class. Though this is more of a case of RefugeInAudacity and my teacher being awesome.
#55810
This troper's old school was made of this. Since what I was typing was reaching a rather hefty paragraph, I'll put it into bullets:
#55811
The school system's main branch was that of the Cass schools, and the students have made sure that you'd be hard pressed to find a picture posted in any of the halls in which students wearing spirit-wear didn't accidentally cover up the first letter. Most of the books and music stands with the name of the school on them have been similarly defaced.
#55812
My eighth-grade English teacher managed to make a few jokes that flew over half of the class's heads-- I recall asking him once why he used longer sentences for grammar practice as the year went by, and he made a rather blatant sexual metaphor (the exact wording of which I don't exactly remember, unfortunately, but it left the more GenreSavvy students in stitches).
#55813
The very young, sweet band teacher was also quite easily frustrated. We all fancied ourselves quite talented musicians (which we were, for our age, but not to nearly the extent we thought), and as such tried to fix our own problems. Occasionally, this would result in a rather catastrophic mess, and when our teacher caught on she would lecture. This lecture generally ended with her writing telling us that to assume makes and '''ass''' out of you ('''u''') and '''me.'''
#55814
At the beginning of our seventh grade year, our social studies teacher, a caring but altogether sharp {{Tsundere}} of a woman, jokingly told us that she would always love us, but if we misbehaved she'd turn into a "witch with a capital B." She was also an excellent singer (her dream was to play Christine professionally some day, and I full-heartedly believe that she can and will), and while helping a little a cappella group I was in, she told us to "pretend we were singing [''Lollipop''] to one ''fine'' mofo." Which naturally led to an interesting conversation when one of my friends asked her what a mofo was.
#55815
My science teacher, just prior to summer break, told us, "Be safe this summer, especially you band kids. Don't wanna end up like your parents."
#55816
My parents recently got remarried. While I went shopping with my dad (who is also one of my best friends) for decorations, he was describing in great length the details of their first wedding, to which I smiled and reminded him that I was there. It took him a minute to remember that I knew I was a surprise (though, as I feel compelled to mention for their sake, they ''were'' already engaged, they just pushed up the wedding date a few months).
#55817
This tropette does this with her {{fanfic}}s. The most notable case being with this one, where so far, we've had consumption of alchohol, Eddy swearing * :To date, he's used the words "damn," "hell," "ass," one expletive that needed a NarrativeProfanityFilter, and Ed ''Elric'' saying "asshole", and one instance of HoYay between two of the characters...all within the span of ''seven chapters!'' You might think this isn't such a big deal, but it is when you realize this is rated K+ (the FF.Net equivalent of PG). In this case, I got carried away with the swearing, and actually ''forgot'' the rating was K+, so the censors really ''were'' slacking.
#55818
This happened all the time back in my undergrad days---this is what I got for taking up psychology as my major.
#55819
During stat class, we had to exchange and encode each other's personality questionnaires. Cue in classmates asking "who wants me?" or auctioning each other off.
#55820
It used to be a pretty standard joke to ask about each other's bananas or who'd polished off so and so's hotdog (sandwiches).
#55821
This troper considers himself fairly intelligent but one area where he really struggles is languages (specifically Irish). So when presented with a difficult Irish composition, to save face (in his own head at least), he'll work in as many "clever" references as he can manage. A recent letter was basically addressed to the MarquisDeSade thanking him for a lovely time in Saló.
#55822
When I worked for my sixth-form magazine as Features Editor, I rejected a whole load of crap that was then slipped into the magazine behind my back, and the other sections I had no control over were full of crap too. Charged with writing an intro for the debut issue, I wrote an extremely acerbic piece making fun of the magazine, its name, the "up-to-the-minute reviews of books released this time three years ago", the "slush pile of teen-angst poetry drivel" and "those interviews with no-longer prominent politicians that everyone aged 16-18 wants to read about". I submitted it, sure it would be be rejected, but for reasons I still can't puzzle out the staff in control ran it.
#55823
This troper is the master of it at his school. He got mentions of incest, pedophilia, lesbianism, and the list goes on. Thing is, He mostly doesn't get caught because it is mixed in the humor of his projects. Whenever He gets caught he says that they were ad-libbing and mostly gets away with it the first time it happens to that teacher, usually after the third time they catch on, but that's usually at the end of the year so I am a legend for the most part.
#55824
When I was in 6th Grade, I wrote a short story. The main character's name was Hugh Jazz. The teachers didn't catch on, but my class mates did when I read it out loud.
#55825
This tropette's middle school's initials were P.M.S. and the publications class took advantage of it. We wanted to do a newscast and call it PMS Monthly. We succeeded.
#55826
A kid in this troper's science class made a fake news report for a project. About halfway through the video cut to their "local news" segment, and they said a KFC burned down. Cue Xavier (an African American kid) running across the screen, screaming. The teacher didn't pick up on it.
