Today, I was throwing rocks into a pond while our class was on a field trip. The teacher started to pass around an old rare civil war bullet. As the bullet got to me, I threw another rock in the river, only to notice a rock in my hand and the bullet gone. FML

It'd probably be best if you jumped in after it.

yea you're a dumb shit. If I was your teacher I'd throw you in after it and tell you not to come up until you find it.

Did your rock push the bullet in the water

Everyone makes stupid mistakes every now and again, so FYL. But...you really should have been paying attention, so YDI too.

u can buy an "old rare civil war bullet" for 10$ on ebay buy one, give her that saying u must have put it in ur pocket

Probably not rare. A Minnie Ball I would think as 99% on both sides used it. A nasty bullet by the way. Heavy, big and slow moving. When it hit an extremity it almost always caused an amputation due to the massive damage to flesh, the primitive medical conditions and the huge and quick flow of the wounded. Piles of limbs were often 6 feet high behind the surgical tent and most wounded got no anesthesia. Only a slug of whiskey and a bullet or leather strap to bite on when the surgeon began sawing. Minnie Balls can be purchased online for a couple of bucks.

PS Perhaps your post is as good an example as any as to why your grades suck. I mean you were supposed to be paying attention and not throwing rocks right? Good luck in the job market. Employers love employees who don't pay attention.

We have no idea whether OP's grades suck or not. Also I don't think a kid not paying attention on a school trip is going to cause him to not be able to get a job. Loads of kids mess around on school trips. It's not a big deal.

how mad did the teacher get? what happened after that?
