The Punishment
This happened in 2005 when I was in the 12th grade. My school had both boarders as well as days scholars. There were 12 students in my class and four of us lived in the boy's hostel. Since hostel life was usually boring, we'd do all sorts of shit to make our lives a little interesting. So this incident took place on a fine Sunday during games time. A group of us were playing cricket (sports was seasonal in our school and this was the cricket season). Our school had 2 basketball courts and a big ground. Since the ground was a little further away from school, a group of us were playing cricket on one of the basketball courts.

Disclaimer: I use the word “fuck” fairly often in private conversation, and quite loudly on occasion. (Just ask Pam.) I also use various terms that relate to fellatio and incest, and both male and female genitalia. I'm reasonably sure that I've used “The 'F' Word” somewhere in my Vocal stories. This is a satirical look at the growing prevalence of the term in stories I read on this platform. It may cost me some friends. It's bound to cause some resentment. All I can ask is that you read it with your sense of humor active. If you make it to the end (Don't cheat, dammit!) you might even find a fun little surprise.

The Sublime Absurdity of Bad Poetry (And a Few Cringeworthy Gems)
