And before you say that’s just a boomer thing, consider these comments from where I got it:
My Indiana elementary school in the early 80s too.
Naw that’s a boomer thing. I’m Gen X, we didn’t do duck & cover. My dad did though lol. We did do tornado drills because we’re in the Midwest though.
Wow. I’m a 47-year-old Boomer.
Duck and cover, it’s just good science.
So, just to double-check, the it’s-not-just-boomers proof is comments from fb, ya?
Sure, if you ignore the text I wrote myself beneath the image I pasted. Which you apparently did.
I mean tbf 1 line of text under two large photos is easy enough to miss if not expecting there to be text there. I’d recc putting full text above photo next time.

That text would make sense above the photo, and your spoiler doesn’t make it look hard to see to me, but anyway, no, not just the comments because also me. If you choose not to believe me either, I suppose that’s your right… although someone else already chimed in and said their school did it too in the comments here.
I mean uhhhh sure I believe you. I have no reason not to. But I never really was questioning that to begin with. My comment was never really meant to be taken seriously; It was just supposed to be a snide joke about “old people use fb”.
Do you mean US school mass shooting shield?
Sure, if you want to go all retro with your shield.
Retro is the hot right now.
Hot like a hydrogen bomb!
Oh man, that hit the nostalgia button hard in a very bizarre way. I was still using these in the early 90s. I can still picture my name, written in the teacher’s mesmerizingly neat handwriting, taped to the top corner.
I’m in neither boomer nor Gen X, but I remember these style of desks. Hated them.
I always thought those were a Boomer-exclusive thing, too. Glad I never had to do it, in any case!
Ah yes I do remember hiding in the black void under the table top, where existence can’t reach you
No duck and cover for this Xer, but we did a shiton of stop, drop, and roll. Spontaneous combustion was apparently a big deal in my childhood.
