So my school passed this new rule. Now you can't use iPods in class, because some kids listen to theirs while the teacher talks and some text on their iPhones - the latter is the main reason.
It's not a huge deal, really, except in my situation. I have a computer class that's basically 100% individual work on computers. It's easy, but boring. The teacher let us use our iPods while we worked, as long as we took our headphones out while she was talking. She tried to make an exception to this new rule but they wouldn't let her. We're not even allowed to pop a CD player into the computer and plug in earphones anymore.
Why do fags with iPhones have to ruin it for us?
Why would you text on an iphone. |:
iPhones lol
My school had a "No Electronics" rule. We couldn't use phones, iPods, handhelds at all during school hours: even during lunch.
Um, it's been like that at my school for the longest time.
Why would you want to put a CD player into the computers? Don't they have DVD drives pre-installed?
And it's been like this at every school I've ever gone to, so quit whining.
boo fucking hoo
We've never been allowed any types of electronics in class.
my school has never allowed iPods or CD players or anything in class, except my photography teacher lets us in the darkroom
Fucking get used to it and stop whining you tremendous faggot. I have to deal with this shit every day.
spoiled brat
wait how many of your asshole classmates have iphones doodthing;
If you're that bored, couldn't you play games on the computer or something?

If it's like my school, they've blocked all flash games. >.<

Try to find loopholes. My school's filter is supposed to block sites with flash games, but for some reason it doesn't block some sites. If you can't find any unblocked sites, you could put games on a flash drive and bring it to school.
You people are hateful. :3
It's against school policy here, but most teachers really don't care. So we get to bring stuff anyways. I was playing my DS for a week in English and Speech class just cause the teacher didn't care.
My school started using this new web-blocker. The old didn't block certain proxy sites.

Exactly, also my schools filter can be easily bypassed, or it used to be easy to bypass, lol just hit F5 until it lets you through.
be happy that a rule was just put there for you. My county has had that rule for years.
I've had to deal with this all my life. doodthing;
When I was a wee lad in grade school, all we had to listen to was the air conditioner or some fat kid wheezing.

Didn't you guys have portable turntables or eight-track players or something?
Who do you think I am, Johnny Ace?
I did see one kid walking to history class with a miniature phonograph on his shoulder. I also saw big Tommy Jones take it, break it in half, and use it to amplify his voice as he called the kid names.
You went to school with Tommy Lee Jones? Man, you're such an old geezer.

That was a typing mistake, meant CD, the computers can already play CDs.
And in every class they haven't let us use them, but my computer teacher is nice. I'm fine with it, but a bit mad.

I can't play flash games while I do my work, and I've never really liked flash games much either.
