    I don’t understand, what fell? Was it a battle, a wall? Is it a reference to 9/11?

    They had duels for 19 years? You’d think one would have surrendered before that.

    Even generals need their exercise.

    so are those girls going to start yelling out “witch” or “wizard”? And start a witch trial?

    SAT scores came out! That’s what the problems was! to distract their parents of the fact that they failed their SAT’s!
    They learned that from obama!

    You are a politicophile to the worst degree. Inject politics into literally every thing. You need to get control. And Obama isn’t known for hysteria (but for Mr. Spock coolness) so you are also in need of medical care for your hallucinations.

    All this time, I thought mass hysteria referred to crowds panicking about some apparent disaster. I didn’t know it had a stranger meaning in psychology.

    Think of it in terms of “contagious”. One girl gets over-wrought and brings another into it (because teenage girls are easily influenced) and on and on it goes.

    Thanks; you just reminded me of the Burn the Witch scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

    Were the hysterical students mostly boys or girls?

    I once read a shortt story that was a fictionalized version of the ongoing duels!

    If those dueling French generals had been thrown into jail, they would have realized that the ‘pen’ was mightier than the sword!

    Mass hysteria? Most likely someone passed around some drug and dared the girls to take it.

    In my high school outbreaks of mass hysteria with painful shaking and verbal outbursts usually came right after the announcement of a math quiz.
