A teacher contacted over 40 mothers of graduating students and told them to buy the same purple shirt for their husbands to wear as a prank.
Prank?
This makes life easy.
Who says men don’t listen to their wives?
It’s global->

What I don’t get is all the hoopla over 8th grade “graduation”. In my day, we finished grade 8 and went to grade 9 in the fall. No one even noticed. It was just expected of us.
I’m offended!
Single dads are discriminated against by not having someone to prank them and insisting they wear it.
They are being included!
Huff!
On the other hand, I’d be the cool one that wasn’t pranked.
aren’t*
They even have mini graduation ceremonies for Kindergarteners, my 6-year-old granddaughter in the Nashville/Pleasantview suburb just had such a ceremony for graduating kindergarteners. My daughter and I both thought it was ridiculous. My granddaughter also just had a ballet recital this last Saturday which was just as ridiculous or worse with all the little girls dancing to pop music and then charging them $65 for a cheap plastic participation trophy, my son in law refused to pay it and next year Esther will not be going to these ballet classes anymore. Ballet class at my church for all the girls including my daughter in the mid to late 90’s was never like this. Their recital was held at the auditorium at Whitworth College in N Spokane and was a very well attended and properly done ballet recital. My granddaughter’s recital stunk is all I can say. Gimme a friggin break and quit trying to oversexualize little girls when they’re young and impressionable. There will be no more of this bs for my granddaughter according to my daughter and son in law after this fiasco. We had a day at the park and a school picnic when I went from 6th grade to Junior High in the Spring of 1965 and that was it and there was no big deal made out of it.
Pranked, nagged, tomato, tomahtoβ¦.
Hard to find someone with a sense of humor these days, most people want to punch you in the mouth for looking at them. I live in NY
My grandson just graduated from kindergarten, and that follows his two years graduating from pre-school! He’s 5 and has graduated 3 times already!
Guys don’t care – hey bro, nice shirt! Now do it to the ladies, maybe at some formal affair and they’re all wearing the same thing.
“Hey guys, if the wife makes you wear a purple shirt, beers on her credit card!”
Wild Bill, do you really want to have a cat fight on your hands if all the women were to wear the same outfit. All it would take it would be for one jealous lady who’s upset that some other woman wears that same other outfit or looks better in it than she does. And don’t you dare try it with a bunch of she boons. It would be like fight day at Waffle House.

…so the last 2 were postgraduate degrees, then, probably with more REAL learning behind them than Jill Pedo’s entire scholastic career…
Guys! Where did you think my avatar came from?

Fuck KimberlArchuleta!
well, at least they weren’t rainbow shirts from target…
It’s regional.
In NY, public schools usually go to 8th grade.
So there is an 8th grade “graduation” before going to highschool. It’s not usually in the same building.
We have middle schools, also, that are only 6,7, 8.
So 8th grade is kind of a thing.
I never gradumakated from nothing, except Plant School. I was proud of that. And from that we all shook hands with our instructors and had little idea that going forward we were all still completely worthless.
