Ridiculous detention slips

[Redliner]

Some of these are hiliarious, especially the one where the kid gets detention for arguing with his teacher when the teacher attempts to "teach" the class that a kilometre is longer than a mile.

What the hell? On #2 "Number of Character Points Deducted: -10".
They have a karma system for school children? It ain't a forum!

Having said that, fact is often stranger than fiction.

I can only imagine how fun it would be to argue with your teacher about something you know is incorrect.

Probably prepares the kid for the real-life working world.

I did that on more than one occasion - even had my grade 4 teacher go to the library to 'prove' the right answer (he was wrong). I never got a detention or any other form of discipline for doing it, though some teachers may be annoyed to be proven wrong by a kid.

I think I annoyed them even more by taking the hit in marks with blatant disregard, rather than conform to incorrect facts. There is no centrifugal force, Mr. Stokes, only centripetal acceleration.

Seriously, what is wrong for sending students to the office after seeing them perform oral sex on each other. That seems pretty inappropriate behaviour for a school.

If you would have spent more time learning and less time receiving oral sex you'd know your first sentence is a question, not a statement, and as such requires a question mark.

I'd rather get oral then have some nazi showing me my mistakes.

Clearly you were getting oral on the day that they studied humour.

My sister got sent to detention once for telling the class that Santa Claus didn't exist.

I think it would be awesome to be sitting in school with some girls head in my lap while I'm yelling "I'm learning" like Ralph from the Simpsons

When I was in elementary you'd actually get a point on the reward system for finding an error.

When I was in high school, I once argued over a test answer for fifteen minutes until my teacher decided she needed to get on with her class and told me she'd look at it after class. The next day, just three words: "You were right."

Although not getting in serious trouble, my grade 5 teacher held me back after school to request that I not correct her in front of the other students any more. Apparently, I was doing it too often. It would have been easier to do if she wasn't wrong so often.

Am I the only one who's schools didn't use detention slips?

Don't get me wrong- I had detention often enough that my parents thought classes went until 4:30 every day. It was just that if you had a 15 minute detention you stayed in your homeroom; and if you had a 30 minute or longer detention (or multiple detentions) you went to the main detention room.

Yeah this happened to me in grade 6. My teacher would constantly do the most basic math problems wrong and didn't appreciate me correcting her every five minutes.

Ah, this is why I loved going to school where I did. You couldn't get detention because then you would miss your school bus home. All detentions were served over your lunch hour. It was either that, an in-school, or out of school suspension.
