Did they make you complete a Farting Proficiency Test when you were at school?

Made us all complete a Farting Proficiency Test in our final year of primary school.  I remember a few kids had never farted before so had to run around the playground with stabilisers on until they were used to it.

Yes they did at mine.

Did anyone else fart into the traffic cones?

[bgmnts]

I remember some kid shat himself TWICE.

Did at my school in Pripyat, when badly wrong, had to be covered up. Dem beans! Gosh.

I went to quite a remote school where they were marked off-site, so we all had to guff in jiffy bags and write our names on them.

Yes, I remember seeing a load of the fifth form in the playground wearing helmets and guffing away.

Wasn't yours the school where the fifth form was known as "the filth form"?

[Fambo Number Mive]

Yes, because so many of them became coppers. The ability to fart correctly is essential in many branches of the police, in particular traffic duty. If a police officer is directing traffic at a roundabout they must use both hands and their bottom.

Yes, because so many of them became coppers.

Had they not already been in the first, second, third and fourth years as well, though?  Why was that specific academic grade singled out to highlight the career they ultimately went on to have?
