teenagers in school often like to deface textbooks and walls with animated scrawls of penises.With a flip of a few pages, teens will most likely giggle at their peers' defiant artworks scribbled between the educational material they are supposed to be learning from.But some cheeky adolescents took it one step further by drawing and writing naughty messages all over their piece of work he submitted to his teacher.The educator who was given the work took to Reddit to share the task they set for the year nine boys - and it did not quite go to plan.They explained in the post: “Fun worksheet I gave the yr9 lads today, at the end of a lesson on the Greek origin of words.”Attached was the ‘fun’ A4 paper that asked the 13-14 year-old-lads to invent their own dinosaur and complete a fact file about them.In the box that was labelled ‘image of my dinosaur’ one lad drew a very questionable looking penis and a pair of testicles.Not quite the predator you would imagine trotting about in prehistoric times!Then, in the box that asked to list ‘key characteristics’ of the dinosaur the lad simply wrote “nob.”And, the teen then gave an account about what the risqué predator ate in which he described it as “pum pum” - referring to a vagina.The lad grew cheekier as when asked where his phallic shaped dinosaur lived, he explained: “In ye mums nickers (knickers).”Another teen lad drew a dinosaur that almost resembled a unicorn but instead of a horn featured a penis, in which the student aptly named a key characteristic of their creature as having a “nob head.”And, apparently this questionable living dinosaur lived at the “corner shop.”We do not think they will be ending up in the Natural History Museum anytime soon!Tickled by the teens’ raunchy
