What is the dumbest thing you got punished for in school?

Flip the monitor screen upside down, control plus alt plus arrow key, got banned from using any school computer for the rest of the year.

I did this by mistake once, and I told my friend about it.

After I left, he decided to flip the screen and leave it that way.

I got in trouble for leaving the computer in an inoperable

state. They had to reimage the whole thing. I feel like I did this once when I was younger

and had a meltdown because I didn't know how to get it back. Technology is hard. Sixth grade,

a classmate got to school without her backpack and I was the only one to notice. School started and she was looking

for her bag and I told her that I saw her arrive without it. After which she started yelling at me

for no reason telling everyone that I had hid her bag. I exploded with laughter because it was funny

that she was blaming me. Teachers came and sent me to the principal's office. Nobody believed me,

and I guess giggling didn't help. I was in detention until this kid's mom called the school

and let her stupid daughter know that she forgot her backpack at home. I'm 33 now, and not so long

ago I saw this girl again. I went to say hello and to remind her of that day, which I still find

funny. She didn't react at all to that. Yeah, you're still a jerk, Susan. Freaking Susan.

In middle school, one of my friends brought Hello Kitty Band-Aids to school, and our entire

friend group decided to wear them as accessories, on our hands and arms, because they were

cute. Our English teacher wrote us up and demanded that we not wear bandages for the rest of the

year because he saw them as gang symbols. A Hello Kitty Band-Aid gang. I still don't understand

his thought process. San Rio gang rise up. Holding my pencil the wrong way.

Teachers hated it.

They tried those little rubber things and nothing worked.
