Wedgie! A principal suspended? →[More:]

Thought y'all might get a kick outta this. I hadn't heard about the original story, but the update sure made my morning. I kinda feel for the guy. A case of just getting carried away, you could say? Good grief...

My favorite quote from the offending principal: "I want to live in a world where we don't have to hide when we screw up." Amen to that. (Course, some things are easier to hide than others.)

"I've made mistakes in my life, but none have had the impact that this one has had," he said.

Jeez, kid, it was a wedgie, not an atom bomb. or even an atomic wedgie.

Maybe he went to school as Captain Underpants too.

Perhaps a tit-for-tat is in order? Sounds worthy of a school assembly to me... maybe the band could play some Sousa or something? ; )

Wedgie! The Musical.

Wouldn't you go see that? I would.

San Francisco currently seems to be hosting both Menopause! The Musical and Shopping! The Musical, so we could probably use some boy-themed balancing out. Send it this way.

Wedgies... not just for boys anymore (mildly nsfw)...

I stand corrected, though I won't click the link :)

Menopause! The Musical, Wedgie! The Musical and Urinetown would make for a great Pelvic Area TheatreFest or something.

I saw Menopause the Musical when it was in NYC. I got comp tickets and took my Dad when he was in town, 2 years ago. It was us, a gay couple, and 50 old ladies. And man, did they hoot and holler. It was fun.

Hot flashes are fun. I got depot lupron shots to try and shrink my grapefruit-sized fibroid before surgery some thirteen-odd years ago, and they put me into a temporary, artificial menopause. My hands would get blazing hot, like some freaky new superpower or something.

Ok, I misread the first sentence of that article as "principal of Dork High School." No wonder he was handing out Wedgies.
