EDIT: The gangs went to beat up the homophobe, NOT the tutor.

It happens.

I didn't have many close friends in secondary school, but I got on well with nearly everyone - there were very few people I wasn't on decent terms with. Well enough that if nobody in my village was going out on the piss in the local town, I could head in myself, walk into a pub, and know someone to go and chat to.

This probably pins me to a particular age bracket, but when I grew up there were the Trendies (people who liked dance music, the club scene, and R&B while it became popular) and the Grungers (the crowd that loved heavy rock, metal, and grunge funnily enough), and the two groups never really met in the middle. I got on well with loads of folk in both camps and never really got pigeonholed as one nor the other.

The included the hardest lads in the year group, the absolute lunatics who were on the gear even at school age, scrapped in the playground, and spent more time in detention than in class. A couple of them collared me privately and told me "remember, if anyone needs sorting out, give me a shout and I'll kick fuck out of them for you".

It was a favour I thankfully never felt the need to call in, but it was handy knowing that I wasn't going to be on the business end of getting a doing off one of them.

I'm not familiar with him. But sure.

I think I'm also in that age bracket but we had Trendies and Greebos. (I was a Greebo.)

What the fuck is this? There were never Trendies or Grungers. Whoever believes this has never lived in the UK. Grungers?!?! lol dude you really need to try harder

The only thing I know about trendies is that you can trade in good boy points for them

...Seen it happen when a favoured teacher at a school I worked at got his car keyed. The students worked out who keyed it, and all hell broke loose....

Damn crazy that five gangs would beat up the tutor at the same time.

That'll teach you!

Is this the famous gang bang the hub of porns has been suggesting?

[–] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 35 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why did five gangs beat up the gay boy? I thought he helped them! (This story is ambiguously worded)
