Similar to my idea about mandatory but regulated drug use, I have the idea for class clown class. In high school there is always someone who may have little interest in the subject being taught, and just cracks jokes or acts like an asshole. I think that these people shouldn't be expelled or sent to detention. They should be sent to class clown class where they're taught how to hone their comedy skills and study the various forms of rebellion for further reference. Not everyone wants good grades and a job. But in class clown class they can get good grades and prepare for a job in not caring about good grades or getting a job. I know this might take some of the Romance out of rebellion, but just because a kid is stupid doesn't mean that he can't make a living being funny.

being really funny is a sign of intelligence in my opinion.
and I don't think that this is a skill that can or should be taught in school.

I actually crack a lot of jokes / act kind of like an asshole in a lot of my classes (the kind of like an asshole part is mostly due to my jokes rarely being funny), though on the contrary I actually have a lot of interest in the subject. Typically, when I don't joke, it's either we're going through some serious business in-class, I'm going through some serious business psychologically, or I'm struggling to understand the topic.

I tell fat woman jokes. Not jokes about fat women, but the kind of jokes you tell so you can feel people are laughing at you for being funny and not because you're ugly and unloved.
