Red Bull.

2. Red Bull: Why kids who pogo off the walls require a can of this revolting, drinkable 'cane-light to keep up their energy is beyond us. Sure enough though, at the end of each day, crumpled up silver, blue, and red cylinders dot the courtyard like little plastic baggies on a skid row.

The red menace.

1. Flamin' Hot Cheetos: Yeah, NPR brought them to the world's attention, but we've seen the destruction on the ground. The real problem isn't their lack of nutritional value or one-dimensional flavor, but the mess they create. In the wake of a Flamin' Cheeto cyclone, a sifting of red dust blankets the room, the particles clinging brightly to any surface they touch. Students also injure themselves. Last week, a girl was noshing in the hallway and plowed through a bag so aggressively that she actually sent powder floating up into her eyes. The stuff freckled her cheeks and eyelids and she wailed as her eyes burned and burned.

What are you worried about? At least your ninth-graders aren't using alcohol or drugs, don't get pregnant or drop out of school, and thank God don't get in trouble with the law. I mean, otherwise, you would have given those kinds of problems priority over Flamin' Hot Cheeto burns and similar trivia -- right?
