    I was. When the bell would ring and the halls were hectic I would put popcorn in the communal microwave and put like 20 min and leave and sometimes nobody would notice till it catches fire

    I almost burned down the school a couple times

          Dude, Sounds like you were old enough to understand that almost burning down your school intentionally, multiple times, was bad. Bullies or not. I’m not sure why you’re taken aback by someone thinking a little arsonist in training isn’t a good kid.

                Exaggerated obviously. The school is made of brick it wasn’t going to burn if I tried

                  Ah yes, there’s famously never been fires in brick buildings.

                  You knew your actions could easily lead to a massive fire and loss of life, you said so yourself, and still you chose to do it repeatedly anyway.

                  Now you don’t seem to be showing much remorse, which is unfortunate. I guess I just hope you’re a bit less of a piece of shit.

                  Brick buildings still burn. There’s flammable paint, contents, furniture enough to ruin a brick building.

                  Although found it interesting that my niece got in trouble for hanging curtains in her dorm room. Apparently that’s one of the places they have strict fire codes

      I was a victim of this prank in college. We were on a road trip, sleeping in a lounge at another school and were awakened by a fire alarm. Somehow while we were sleeping a toaster with broken spring appeared on a table, filled with bread we didn’t have. The room filled with smoke, the entire dorm was evacuated, the fire department came.

      After the fact, I realized I was probably explaining the situation to the perpetrators, but I don’t know if my annoyance at stupid prank was still amusing. They did keep straight faces.
