Bully Nuns

“Well those silly bully boys They lost more than their toys” The Tiger Lillies
At Blessed Sacrament School (also known as “BSS”), which my brother called “Bull Shit School,” the atmosphere was rife with bullying.  Corporal punishment was not only allowed, but encouraged, it seemed, and I would be a liar to say I wasn’t afraid of some of my teachers, especially the nuns.  Sister Mary Alphonse may have been the worst.  (I have changed or altered names to protect the innocent and guilty.)
