Somehow, your post and your tagline just don't add up.

Mother Africa, the cradle of civilization.

But in my old ghetto high school in Philadelphia, PA, kids regularly defecated in the classroom closets

Did anyone ever come up with an explanation of WHY they did it?!?

What a sh@**y school.

[mowowie]

Gee, After 5 years of this maybe they should invest in a hidden camera or something.

[steveegg]

Whoa, that was cool.

[politicalmerc]

OK, this is too easy, here they just TEACH sh*t.

said the problem started five years ago and all efforts by the school authorities to address it have proved futile. Blackboards, furniture and the walls have all been smeared with human excreta, while some teaching and learning materials have also been vandalised.

In five years they haven't learned to post a lot of guards and catch the vandals? Or are they outside protesting in daylight, because they don't have the courage to take their school back?

I don't get your point? I guess my post was inappropriate because it was removed, but it was factual. The word sh** was first an acronym that instructed those on ships to store it up high so that the heat created by the wooden barrels full of the substance in question would be able to escape. True story.

Those people don't have a pot to pee in. It's unreasonable to expect them to buy a camera.

I used to have a similar problem in the place I used to work. We would come to work in the morning to find that someone had left a load in our toilet without flushing. Since I was usually the first person in the office every morning I was usually the unlucky person to find it.

Of course we tried to find the person who keep doing this but we never identified him. The maintenance staff had a key but we knew all of them and really did not believe any of them were the culprits. There was a locked door between our offices and the offices next door. We believed that our phantom defecator, as we called him, got into our office that way but we were never able to prove it or come up with a suspect.
