    Nobody going to mention a Cask of Amontillado? Maybe not the most mind-bending example, but the tale of leading a supposed friend to their own horrific murder was not a thing I expected to be reading in school.

      Was that before or after the school-shooting lockdown drills?

        After the hide under your desk from nuclear bombs drills but before the active shooter drills.

          Nuclear attack drills? I don’t think we ever did those, I’ve just heard about them from older people. How old are you? I thought those stopped in like the 80s or something.

        I grew up in a small town in Canada. We never had any kind of lock down drills.

          Dang, things must be pretty good up in Canada. People are sending their children to first grade with ballistic-shielded backpacks down here.
