That principal is a twit.
Won’t sombody think of the ruckus? The poor thing was just sitting there when a bunch of angry curler wearing cheerleaders came up and started threatening it. And I know what you’re thinking; why would cheerleaders be wearing angry curlers? We may never know the answer to that question.
Yeah, without the curlers, nobody would pay attention to them. Nope, not me, I never paid attention to the cheerleaders.
Bwaaah! Me too. I was also amused by the phrase “hurled their curlers across the room”. Man, they’re awfully rough on those Curling athletes.
Those are the most defiant-looking curler-wearing cheerleaders I think I have ever seen.
Watching spoiled people have a snit over a minor rule is both repellant and attractive to me. I can’t stand listening to their pointless whining but I get intense shadenfreude from their “Suffering.”
With petty power trips like that, I see a bright future for that principal in a career of mall security.
If memory serves me correctly: It wasn’t the curlers that I found so damned distracting!
“…Um, no Mam. I will NOT come up to the chalkboard and do that math problem.”
Are you aware that Barry Manilow raids your wardrobe?
He’ll give you the answer to that, Ms. Katriona, next Saturday.
(don’t get me started - I have many a high school slumber party spent watching the movie)
What the cheerleaders should have said was that the curlers represented their support for our troops overseas. It would be nonsense, but it would be patriotic nonsense.
Why does our principal hate America so?
We’re the curler girls
We’ve got the hot stones
When our curlers we hurl
We’re bad to the bone!
Man, when I was 13, I was praying for pin-straight hair. I still don’t understand why people want to curl it all the time. I love it now, but you know, you make do with what you got!
But the principal (le!) is just silly.
Y’know, I’m reminded of Rick Reilly’s column in Sports Illustrated some years ago. Reilly had written something not very complimentary towards cheerleaders, and some of them took offense. If I recall correctly (and I’m paraphrasing), Reilly replied,
“Cheerleading hate mail is not very scary. They would write, ‘I hope you die,’ and put a heart over the ‘I’.”
That about sums it up, I think.
