Remember, when you were a kid and there were that kid who would eat paste? Or the kid that would pretty much eat anything you dared them to, when you were playing at recess? Then as they, and we, got older we’d sniff those fruity markers…the one’s that smelled like cherry, blueberry, or mint? Then, as you got older still you “graduated” to model glue and those cool metal cased markers your teacher had in her desk drawer. Woo hoo…little kid high. Of course then, no one talked about “huffing” or whatever they’re call it now.
Well, 8 year old Eathan Harris was expelled from his Colorado school for sniffing a sharpie. No, he wasn’t caught with marker all over his nose, he got the marker on his shirt and was sniffing his shirt. His Principal, Chris Benisch decided to impose a 3 day expulsion on the boy. The Principal exclaimed that the marker was “enormous.” Because the size of the marker is what matters when the kid is smelling his shirt, and not the marker itself. Only because Eathan’s dad complained about the punishment, it was reduced from 3 days to one.
Clearly, paste is now going to be considered a gateway drug. Better watch those kindergarten kids. They’re gonna start forming gangs that roam the streets at night stealing the tires off your cars to sell for paste and marker money.
