Students Give Answers
To Maddening Question
What gets you really mad?
Runners in your hose?
Finding out you have gobs of
homework and a big date on the
same night?
This question regarding
those maddening things was
asked to a few students and
teachers at LHS. Here is what
some had to confess.
Janice Beck: soph. - It really
makes me mad to see students
not caring about the Honor
Code.
Tommy Stalcup: jr. - Having
a lot of tests.
Kathy McClure: jr. - Having
a friend that gets stuck-up and
thinks she is better than anyone
else. Everyone is equal.
Mrs. Peggy Stallings
Fixing the volleyball net; then
when I get it tightened up the
way it is supposed to be, it falls.
That really makes me mad.
Alex Gonzales: jr. -1 hate for
someone to be late. Ex. (When I
tell someone to be at a place at a
specific time and they aren’t
there). It makes me explode!
Pat Haussler: soph. - Nosey
reporters.
Mary Johnson: jr. - People
that try to be something that
they really are not and when
someone tells them, they don’t
listen.
John Adams: jr. - It makes
me mad for someone to slap me.
Pat Kilpatrick: sr. - Having
tests every day in World
History.
Cecilia Wright: jr. -1 hate for
someone to be picking on one of
my friends and trying to start a
fight with them all the time.
Coach Trent Phipps—What
really makes me mad is when I
call roll and the students don’t
answer.
Mona Stokes: soph. - I get
mad when I think of the
students running the Honor
Code down so much. It’s a good
thing and no one cares if it
exists or not.
Cindy Cox: jr. - Students
during lunch that leave food on
the tables, stick gum to the
chairs, and throw paper across
the cafeteria really makes me
angry. Also it makes me mad to
see students disobeying the
Honor Code we once had here at
LHS.
It’s a mad, mad, mad world in
a few words. But what makes
people the maddest are people
themselves.
