The forever-to-be-remembered page number in our Biology textbook featuring a photograph of a standing naked child with the world’s most extraordinary bow legs. When viewed in the dark recesses of the school library, it never ceased to make a 12-year-old lurch, retch and eventually laugh milk out of their nose.
Seriously, you could fit a beach ball through there.

Anyone remember “In The Night Kitchen” by Maurice Sendak? It uses drawings of a naked boy, and in one picture he’s standing on a giant milk bottle shouting “Cock A Doodle Doo!” with his own doodle doo sticking out. Always made us hysterical.

In my school you were forced to study the Holocaust in history. Each year, every student was issued a book called “The Jewish Journey,” or something equally catchy. The books were ancient, and all had some degree of graffiti inside. It wasn’t until my year though, that a fully co-ordinated graffiti strike was arranged, and each picture in every book was given the same caption or speechbubble.
e.g A dead malnourished Jew says, obviously, “Give me a sandwich.” A trainload of unfortunates on their way to a death camp sing, “We’re all going on a summer holiday.”
It wasn’t until Mark emptied out his pencil case, put it on top of Johnny’s head and called him a “Dirty skullcap wearing kyke,” that it was brought up in assembly. And Mark was suspended. Ah… days. Those were them.
