No Farting!

Just pinch it until you can get to a bathroom...

It was a "paddling" offense when I was in junior high in TX, where we still had corporal punishment.

I never saw it happen for that reason, but they used what looked like a cricket paddle with swiss cheese holes drilled in it.

Same here. Must have been standard issue in those days. They called it a "spat" board at my school. The holes were supposed to make it hurt more; all I know is the pattern on my ass stayed for a couple of days.

This is awesome! I printed it out. My 5th grade daughter does a current events report each week. I showed her this and she laughed. I suspect it will be a 5th grade classic.
Thanks,
Larry

That looks like the kind of place that farts wouldn't be noticed in the "ambient smell"

So if farts smell like flowers they are OK.

This law is so vague that it could include smelly burps or anything that turns someone's stomach - hock a loogie, coughing in general etc...

All they have to remember is: He who smelt it, dealt it.
