Stupid games in highschool....

It’s a really funny game. I started a thread about it a while ago.

Oh my God you played the PENIS game too??? Another favorite was a one-player game…and it took balls…you would walk through a large group of people and whisper “Vagina” then when someone would give you a weird look, say “What did you say to me???” I only know a few people who played this, and even tho I never did it, it was the FUNNIEST thing to watch! :slight_smile:

In high school, we played a game called Killer which was actually based off of several of the 80’s movies such as “gotcha!” and T.A.G the assasination game.

We played variations though… picture, if you will, about 20 high schoolers, broken up into 3 ‘crime families’ and chasing each other around our high school with plastic suction-cup dart guns… heheheh

The best incident was when my best friend was fleeing the “Minnestrone” gang, and ran into our Journalism class, knocked over a table, and fired from behind it. Poor Mrs. Malaspino didn’t quite know what to do about it… when the enemy ‘gang’ left to get to class, my friend put the table back, thanked Mrs. Mal and walked out, to head to his own class… classic moment, and one that still makes me grin…

There was also this game called D-tag. This probably is going to make no sense, but I am going to try to explain it. This is a game for a large group of people. There was actually a large scale game between the 3 high schools in my city. But anyway, each player is given one target to tag. And each player is the target of one person. Nobody knows who is stalking them, and the only thing the stalked knows about his prey is their name. Any time that a person gets their target, the target of the person tagged becomes the new target of the tagee. And this goes on and on until it drives peopl insane with paranoia. It’s pretty fun. Does anyone have the slightest idea what I am talking about? Has anyone ever played this or something like it?

Don’t get me started about “Chubby Bunny”…

BTW, I have my own game…it’s called “Dave Wins”. :smiley:

Our rendition of this was known as “Husk the corn”. Sounds exactly the same.

I know you’re not, I still have my eraser scar on the back of my left hand.
Also, I did “pencil fighting”.

Two that havent been mentioned yet are:

A.) “Thumps” – Same basic idea as bloody knuckles, expect you lay your palm flat on a surface, and the person you’re playing with flicks any part of your knuckle or fingers. Then switch. Keep going until someone gives up. Might not sound like it hurts, but Try flicking the same spot on your knuckle 75x as hard as you can. Big pain and bruises usually ensued.

B.) There really wasn’t a name for this but I guess I could throw it under the generic title of “fuck up your friends.” Basically, there were about 15 kids that played, and there was never a time when your weren’t playing. If you saw someone, it was open season. There was the “yut”, which was just a chop as hard as you can to the collarbone/trapezius muscle. There was the “puke”, which was a straight jab to the throat. And then the “charley horse”, where you go into a frenzy that resembles a Russian hat dance, only you are throwing your knees into someone’s thighs and quad muscles. The absoulte WORST was when you could get an unsuspecting person in a circle of 6 or 8 other people looking to fuck him up, and EVERYONE goes into full-fledged charley horse mode. You could make his legs give out and leave him crying on the ground in under 15 seconds.

God, were we retarted in the 8th and 9th grade. Seemed fun at the time though.

Ok, I have to ask…what’s Chubby Bunny?

In tenth grade we had the Vagina Game. It took place over the course of the entire year, and you played it by replacing the last word in any movie title with “vagina”. (giving us gems such as Raiders of the Lost Vagina, Mr. Holland’s Vagina, or more recently, Man In the Vagina.) If you could only come up with, say, The Vagina, you were out. Hey, it kept us off the streets.

Yeah really, what the hell is that???

Bunch of people. All put a marshmallow into their mouths. They say “Chubby Bunny.” Then they put in another marshmallow. Then they say “Chubby Bunny” again. Then another marshmallow. etc. Continues until all have suffocated, save one.

Originated with some rude patrons at a Playboy Club in Lansing, Michigan.

Jessica, you’ve never played Chubby Bunny?

The guys in my school would walk around and ask the people they ‘thought’ were less cool than they, if they wanted to be in the pen 15 club.

And when the victim would enthusiastically say yes, PEN15 would be written on their hand.

at my high school there was a chinese restaurant, and everyone would always get fortune cookies.
The game part of this was to add the phrase ‘in bed’ to the end of whatever fortune you got. :slight_smile:
Some of those fortunes were REALLY interesting.

no, no, the best one was:
‘old friends long gone will return…’ or something like that…
But that one is good too. :slight_smile:

Jedi Girl

Wouldn’t you consider Russ Russ one of your old friends? Don’t you think we should warn him of this prophecy?

i don’t know if this was a game or just psychotic behavior:
we had a guy who would fight chairs in the lunch room. he would walk by a chair, bump it, give it a dirty look, words would be ‘exchanged’ and a vicious fight would ensue. a teacher would finally break through the crowd of onlookers only to find a skinny kid pounding on a helpless chair, or even funnier, a skinny kid pinned under a chair squirming to get loose. he would do this on his own, without being dared, 2 or 3 times a year.

No, Tasha, I have never played Chubby Bunny. But now that I have heard what it is, it sounds familiar.

Hypergirl, but chubby bunny is one of those universal kid things. It was even part of a show on Niockelodeon once, they played at camp and at school, how did you miss this?

I played “Killer”, too. Actually, I was usually one of the “game masters” as opposed to a player.

We had to put in a rule that you couldn’t kill someone during school hours, except for lunch hour, so as to minimize the disruption.

Of course, that didn’t keep me from having to visit the principal’s office when a game I WASN’T running turned into an…um…interesting legal situation:

Seems like one of the persons in the other game was driving along and spotted another player in the car next to him. He took out his toy gun…and was pulled over by a cop who didn’t recognize the gun as a toy. Furthermore, as I understand it, there were some sort of drugs in one of the two cars. (This is what I was able to gather through bits and pieces of gossip–again, I wasn’t even IN that game. They just knew that I’d been one of the ringleaders in other games.)

I was eventually “cleared” which was just as well. Can you imagine how this would have looked on college applications? :slight_smile:
