In kindergarten before recess we would go over the the bathrooms and everyone had to go. Well, I didn't need to. When I told the teacher that, she took away my recess privileges for a few days.

oh MAN do i have some old grudges against teachers lmao
in kindergarten, we were forced to learn the basics of three religions during the winter/christmas time of year. this lady was coming over to the school to read us a story book on judaism or about hanukkah, so she sits down on a chair in the middle of the classroom and everyone goes and sits in front of her. she ran a little late so she said, "sorry everyone, i won't get to read the book." i (and almost everyone else) said "awww" because storytime is lit. however, the person beside me cheered, and my teacher thought it was me so she marched me across the class to the class next to us (the two classes had a small hallway connecting them) and i had to sit with this kid who was having a mental breakdown and kept singing hymns the whole time. it sucked and i'm still mad about it.
in first grade, we had a sub and she was really mean. i got some question wrong and she called me stupid, so naturally me (barely seven years old) starts crying because i'm not stupid, i just got one lousy question wrong. i then get in trouble for crying. i'm not kidding. she called my mom because i was "crying and causing a scene". i think about it a lot and wonder if she ever got fired.
in second grade my teacher yelled at me because someone gave me their eraser and then stole it back. i told the teacher "she stole my eraser!" and of course the opposing party said "no-" and my second grade teacher had a Rule: Thou shalt not say "nay" in an argument between two parties. because the other girl started with the word no, my teacher punished us both. she is still working in the school system.
in seventh grade, my teachers sucked, but i'll only talk about the funniest/worst thing.
my eyes suck really bad -- i have so little melanin in general my eyes can burn because of ambient sunlight and at the time my family didn't have enough money to buy transitions, so we bought some semi-cheap prescription sunglasses and got a note from my doctor saying i could wear them during gym. fast forward, i'm in gym with my sunglasses on. sunglasses are banned at my school for some reason as a fyi. so my coach walks up and he says "what're you wearing?" and i said "sunglasses. i gave you the doctors note." "sunglasses are against the dress code." "... i have a doctors note? i can bring another copy tomorrow if you lost it-" "i didn't lose it, but i see what you're doing. you want to be cool so you got a fake note to wear those." "... no? i have to wear at least something so my eyes don't fry." (keep in mind i'm very shy and have a hard time talking to adults and people in general) "... fine, but you're on thin ice. if you get an infraction of any kind i'm sending you to detention."
he wasn't a great coach.

Not standing for the pledge yikes, not standing for the pledge is a first amendment right. you legally can't get in trouble for not standing/reciting/saluting because of the West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette ruling. teachers need to learn the curriculum they force students to learn lol

I was one of those kids that NEVER got in trouble. I could get away with anything. The closest I ever came to being in trouble was:
In 8th grade we were all in the hall doing a tornado drill (the thing where you face the wall and crouch on your knees with your head on the ground covered by your arms). While in this position, I was looking out of the gap between my feet, and I see this one teacher squat down to help the kid across from me - she was wearing this jumper dress that was green and white stripes. I say to my friend next to me, "Look between your feet, Ms. X's butt looks like a watermelon!" Later that day, this same friend was heard by Ms. X repeating the comment to another friend of ours - it never came back on me, but the friend that was overheard did get in quite a bit of trouble, and that teacher never wore that jumper again.
In 10th grade, I carved my name into the Biology lab table. Every day, I would go in class, and just trace over it one more time. Towards the end of the year, my teacher saw it, and told me if I didn't get rid of it, I was getting detention (which I had never received in my life). I told her, "It's just a surface scratch, it'll scrape right off" - I ended up gouging probably a quarter inch trench in the table to remove my name. Didn't get detention though since I technically removed it.
I was also technically involved with an incident in 12th grade involving taking a formaldehyde soaked fish from a bucket in the Chemistry lab and hiding it in the teacher's desk over the weekend (it was my idea, but I had to leave class early that day for an away sports game so I didn't help with the actual placing of the fish), but that ended up getting blamed on a class my brother was in (they used the room for first period, we used it for last period, and since there had been a sub that Friday they had no way to prove which class did it, so my brother's class got blamed since that's when it was discovered).

At my preschool there was a playground and a field next to it. During preschool, we had a ton of substitute teachers. One of these teachers told us we couldn't play in the field. However, another substitute teacher allowed us to play in it. When the first substitute teacher came back, she yelled at us for playing in the field even though we were just confused 4 year olds.

Not me per-say but this rather rotund black girl decided to punch my best friend in the back of the head for sitting in "her" seat on the bus (There were no assigned bus seats and we had sat there before so where she got off thinking it was "hers" I already don't understand.) I took offense to that and got into a fistfight with her and for some reason the school decided my friend who hadn't lifted a finger or really said a word during the whole thing should get in school suspension with us and my other friend who wasn't even involved as anything kore than a witness on our side and that really boiled my goose...
I get suspensionvor fighting? Sure fine. I feel 100% justified to get back at people who hurt my friends. I don't care. But to punish the victim and a bystander? Hell no.
