The old days of cutting class/skipping school

I cut class quite often. I also remember people saying that if you put a piece of swiss cheese in the bottom of your shoe and walked around for awhile it would make you throw up. I did that hoping for a pass to go to the nurse and then I would be sent home. It didn't work,I just ended up with smelly socks.

The Swiss cheese in the shoe is one of the wildest things I have ever heard! LOL!

I'll bet you ended up with smelly socks and shoes! 👟 🔥
 
I never actually skipped any lessons but I hated sports and used to come up with various excuses not to take part. I was very often given something to do instead, which was usually much more interesting.
 
And I cut classes to smoke
From everything I know about my baby brothers extra-curricular escapades related to playing hooky, they used to tap into his friends, dads beer.

I totally remember roll your own cigarettes, because my mom used to occasionally roll her own when money was tight between paydays, which was often.

I, too, was heavily involved in sports all through school, but did smoke, not a lot, but I did.
Hey! I rolled my own but it wasn’t tobacco. 😅 I also was able to write my own notes for class since I lived on my own, so I skipped 3 years of math cause I hated it. Of course I had to make up for all those skipped math classes later on in adult education but it was still worth it.

We’d skip class and go hang out in the local restaurant drinking coffee and eating fried sweet buns. I forget what they were called but they were so good.

ROFLMAO!

A friends dad used to refer to it as, "wacky tobaccy". :)

Can't believe I was steadfast in never trying it in my day.
 
I know, what a kicker, huh. :)

Totally serious, never did even try it, which is surprising, seeing how I smoked all through junior and senior high-school, but I was adamantly against and/all drug use, no matter how mild.
I embraced the drug culture for a couple of years after HS. 🤪
Now I have to be in agony to take a single Ibuprofen. Times change.

You took the words right out of my mouth!

I'm with you 100% on having to be completely and totally debilitated before I'll give-in and pop a Tylenol or any other pill-form medication.
 
Every chance I got as soon as the weather turned warm. I would hike up to the stone quarry, about a mile from the school, and just admire the view from up there. Was smoking a little back then and lots of time I would light up and lay on my back and enjoy the clouds and warm sunshine. I would then hike over and through the woods to my house. Mom always knew what I did, but she was a sweetheart and never said much about it.

The good stuff moms are made of. :)
 
I rarely if ever drink. There’s alcoholism in our family plus I have a depressive gene or two and alcohol is a depressant. So is cannabis but my genes never got the memo. 🤷‍♀️🤫
I'm sorry to hear of alcoholism running in your family, so good on you for steering clear of it. 🤗
 
I can honestly say that I never cut classes. I don't know why I didn't. Maybe it just never occurred to me.

There can only be one explanation for such... you were in the same class as ASP and C'est! ROFLMAO!
