from 154 - The 3 AM Episode · #154

5 min

Tim describes being sent to a cheap school recreation program instead of camp, getting suspended for taking extra sprinkle cups and making a lunch lady cry, and messing with a hated bus driver named Ronnie.

In this bit7 moments
  • Bus driver Ronnie would illegally let Tim out during lunch recess when he yelled there was a fire, and she never questioned it.
  • Tim got suspended for in-school detention for being rude and inappropriately demanding to staff in the lunchroom.
  • Lunch ladies are often frustratingly stupid, even as a child Tim found them offensively dumb in many cases.
  • A Czechoslovakian lunch lady started crying and wailing after Tim took extra sprinkle cups beyond his allocation.
  • All the other lunch shades ran to comfort the crying woman and brought Tim to the principal, claiming he made her cry.
  • Tim argues the only logical response would have been to beat both the lunch lady and him, not interrupt the principal.
  • His advice: if you invest in your kids, send them to a real school, not a summer camp where they'll meet future overdose victims.
