Can't take credit for the word, I suppose, but the game of fuck is good wholesome fun for two or more players. Best played in a classroom, but it works in the playground too, as long as a teacher is nearby. The first player says 'fuck' very quietly, just so you can hear it. The next player has to say it a little louder, and so on around the players. The loser is the first person to say 'fuck' more quietly than the previous person, to bottle out completely, or to be heard by the teacher.

Apparently, there's a variant of this game, in which you have to say "anal fist fuck". A few people have emailed to tell me this. The stakes are substantially higher on this one, and I'm curious to know if there are any even more extreme versions.

Allow me. For the advanced fucker, there was this incredibly more dangerous version, very rarely played. You hold your hand in the air, middle finger extended, and say loudly 'one motherfucker'. The next person says 'one, two motherfucker' and so on. I never knew it get higher than five motherfucker, and we eventually had a year assembly warning us that if it happened again, expulsion would follow. Finally , here is the most dangerous game of fuck that can be played, as it relies of the rest of the class not reacting in any way. While speaking to a teacher, you simply drop the word 'fuck' into the sentence. When the teacher expresses surprise, repeat the sentence with 'fuck' removed. As in: Ben: And you can tell the church was built at the same time, cos it's got all them fuckin' crenellations along the top'. Mrs Whittaker: What did you say? Ben: I said, it's got all those crenellatons along the top. Y'know, like on the castle.

For us, Fuck evolved to a fantastically risky advanced level, in which each player had use a different - and filthier - swear each time. This lent the game a delicious creative edge, and led to furious debate on one occasion as to whether 'tuna taco' was a worthy follow up to 'minge'.

At my school we had a very similar game, the words for round 1 were 'bacon bollocks' , round 2 was 'cheesy nuts'. The game very rarely went past round 2.

Fuck-shun-The sound omitted from Mrs Tulley's mouth when Iain Lenton bit her on the neck in 1986 when he thought he was a vampire at junior school. She shouted 'fuck' quite clearly then added 'shun' on the end in a lame attempt to disguise what she said. Iain Lenton's mum had the nerve to report Mrs Tulley for swearing to the PTA and there were rumours going round for about 6 weeks that she was being sent to teach in the Congo.

we did something similar, only with "fellatio" in place of fuck. The gist was to say it just loud enough so the teacher could hear it, but couldn't quite determine which one of us was saying it.

Sadly, we used to play this game at university, although we called it the 'bollocks' game, in the most unmitigatingly boring lectures...those of 'Formal methods' (a basic branch of maths that relies upon no figures being used at all, only letter variables, greater than signs etc etc). The lecturer was a sad shadow of a man, and we finished him off by taking control of the lecture theatre from the top control desk, closing the blinds, erractically switching the lights on and off, and using the projector as a follow spot. As I say, I would have been 17 then. Still, it was a bloody good laugh. Better than learning, at any rate.

A girls alternative to the "fuck" game mentioned above:
As some of you might know, having a male teacher in an all girls secondary school means that you are immediately either the victim of lust or ridicule.
Unfortunately, our Latin Teacher fell into the second catigory, being middle-aged, unattractive, and hindered with a lisp similar to that of Johnathon Ross. The Game included one girl starting off very quietly with "Penis." then the next in the row "Penis"a bit louder, then the next louder than that. In the end, the loudest it ever got was a girl in our class who apparently never got embarrassed. She shouted it so loud however, he could not ignore it any longer and sent her to our English teacher who shouted "breast" at her, and told her to go home and think about the psycological effects that Mr X must have suffered.
He had a nervous breakdown later that year and never came back to finish teaching us Year nine Latin.
Sorry.

another variant of the game was to use innocent phrases combined with more insulting ones. This produced fine specimens of words such as shouting out loudly in class any of the following:
-Cock-juggling thundercunt
-anal fishweed monkeyboner boobyfart
-great blubbering vagina
-big, steaming puddle of gay

This is what we were told it stood for by the older, harder, Paul Field. We believed him for our entire primary school lives, maybe a bit of me still believes this is where the word originated - anyone know any different?

In 6th grade, a troubled youngster was putting smalls slips of paper bearing the word "penis" in red felt marker in all the boys' desks.

It was Tara, who went on to become a lesbian.

This game was relatively popular at a certain group I public school, where the phrase used was "anal beard". Occasionally, a memeber of staff would attempt to rise above the childishness, and not respond to it. By natural consequence of the rules of the game, this led to a group of teenagers taking turns to scream "ANAL BEARD!" directly at the teacher concerned.

A variation on this game took place during geography lessons with Mrs Matthews. She always wore short-sleeved tops that exposed her underarm hair, and so we took it upon ourselves to say "shave 'em" at an increasingly loud volume.

She only cottoned onto this once, announcing "I've no idea what this 'shave em' means..." as the class fell about laughing.
