The teacher set up a microscope, and put something on a slide for the class to look at.

The class formed a line leading up to the microscope, and one by one, each student would look into the microscope.

Each student that went up made some exaggerated comment like: Wow! Neat! That's amazing!

When my best friend reached the microscope, he peered down at the slide, and yelled JESUS CHRIST!

I started laughing, and we both got sent to the principals office, and ultimately we both got sent home for the day.

The next year in 4th grade, I was in art class with the same best friend. We were tasked to make a Valentines day poster. The only stipulation was that it could not say "Be My Valentine".

My best friend and I were not very creative. We both panicked because we had no idea what to say on our poster.

So in my panic, I made a posted that said "Be My Valentine" because I couldn't think of anything else.

My dumbass friend made a poster that said "Blood is Nice".

Again, we were both sent to the principal's office, and sent home.
