The First Rule of Fight Club is You Don’t Send the News Station Video of Your Fight Club

This is basically what a 6th grade boys bathroom looks like.

I remember being 12 years old. And thinking that the boys were soooo weird. And I always knew they were doing something strange in the bathroom. But it turns out it’s something very different than what I thought.

According to the Daily News, nine sixth graders from Stewart Middle School in Tacoma, WA were expelled this week after school officials learned about the students’ ongoing bathroom “Fight Club.” Officials learned about the club from the local news station Q13 Fox News after the station obtained video footage shot on one of the student’s camera phones.

The Daily News reports that the video includes two middle-school aged boys involved in a full-on brawl. The boys’ faces are blurred out, but from what I know about Fight Clubs, one of them is definitely the alter ego of the other. The school district issued expulsions to all students involved in the fighting. They then expelled themselves for not knowing that a serious Fight Club-like situation had developed in their own bathrooms.

Current press releases regarding the couple’s recent walkabouts in Wales and St. Andrew’s, as well the announcement of the bridal party, occupy the lower half of the site. But then the Royal website gets all high-tech on the right hand side, with its own YouTube, Twitter and Flickr accounts.
