• UK School bans 'Assault FlapJack'

theres things that can be done with a flapjack that no school boy should know, once this guy I knew tried to screw with some wrong dudes and the next day they came up to him, all packing shortened flapjacks in their hoodies, what happened afterwards wasn't pretty.

As someone living in Britain, I can say that this is roughly what the build up to the situation would have been like: "oi m8 wot did u say bout me mam" "ur mums a slag m8" "U CHEEKY CUNT ILL KNOCK UR GABBER OUT" *throws flapjack*
Fucker deserved it, should have been wearing eye protection!
how is this news, schools ban stupid stuff all the time and it sometimes helps like my school specifically banned the practice of kicking a bottle under someone then hitting them, and they also banned the pokemon trading cards because arguments broke out over them also throwing snowballs because they might have grit or something in them, my point is this happens [b]all the time[/b], at least where I went to school (although considering this was a technology college when we went to lessons we got to play with saws, drills and knives and that was fine)
Brilliant liberal zero-tolerance policies at work. Keeping the students safe every day.
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;40035036]Brilliant liberal zero-tolerance policies at work. Keeping the students safe every day.[/QUOTE] I don't get why people think banning things is a "liberal" political move, it's about as far from liberty as you can get.
I think the school has framed this in a dumb way. Why not just say "yo flapjacks are now square" instead of "we are banning triangular flapjacks" like it's some huge deal and triangular flapjacks are a basic human right

Does the UK do a lot of pointless banning? I remember reading a story a year ago banning metal paper clips. [url]http://metro.co.uk/2012/08/03/nhs-health-and-safety-chiefs-ban-dangerous-metal-paper-clips-520906/[/url]

I'm not sure if wider legislation can ban individual objects but as far as I know a lot of schools operate under a governor system, where parents and members of the community meet to decide school policy. This can be a force for good but sometimes for whatever reason (usually poor management and governors being completely out of touch or terminally stupid) schools will sometimes do flat out moronic shit like this. In my local area there's a primary school where staff are completely forbidden from making physical contact with students, to the point that doing so could cost that staff member their job. This meant that should any of the children trip and fall (the youngest of which could be five or six years old) then members of staff wouldn't even be allowed to help them up for fear of getting the sack. In the UK knee jerk reactions are the name of the game and you can never win; do nothing or too little and you get accused of being dangerously negligent, go further and you wind up becoming a laughing stock for banning fucking triangular desserts.
thank god if someone hollowed out the points and throw it at someone it prolly would blow out they're insides
Throw some pens and pencils around instead, school'll be done for

Reading this thread (from an american perspective) made me wonder what brits put in their pancakes. I'm glad I looked things up though, it makes much more sense now.
Bring a rectangle one in and break it in half.
A total non-story deliberately designed to rile up the "political correctness/health and safety gone mad!!" brigade
