At one point or another, most of us have probably gotten ourselves into trouble at school once or twice. Getting sent to the principal’s office, having your parents come down to school to talk with the teachers, etc. is not necessarily the best experience when you’re a kid. In fact, it is typically quite terrifying for most. But you do have to do something extra silly or irresponsible to even get to that point most of the time. 

These people took to Twitter to share their stories of getting into trouble at school… for ridiculously silly reasons. From sparing lab frogs’ lives to getting detention for chilling at detention without having been sent to detention, here are 39 scenarios where people got into trouble at school because of something very silly. Scroll down to see the whole list and consider upvoting the entries that crack you up the most!

For a lot of kids, school would eventually become kind of boring and repetitive. So it is no wonder why they constantly come up with ways to annoy each other or their teachers. Small acts of rebellion or silly stunts against the establishment that is school are not even necessarily bad as long as there is balance between acting up and being educated. 

There is always at least one teacher at school who will seemingly go out of their way to scold or punish students for doing barely anything. But that doesn’t only count for school. That could also be your family member or your boss. So in a way, school does somewhat prepare you for life and dealing with real people outside one's safe bubble.

All in all, school is a place where people get ready for some important aspects of their lives. But a part of the learning process - the rebellion, the occasional prank, should not be met with complete shutdown and resistance. Instead, teachers should focus on educating their students, not pointing fingers at them for obscure reasons and calling it a day.

You are only allowed to do this in my class if you dress like a pirate, as well.

I had a friend who did this every year. I don't think he ever got in trouble, but maybe he tailored his responses to questions in class so it wasn't so obvious.

Therein lies the importance of punctuation... “Bite me, a$$holee” = grammatically correct and scathing. “Bite me a$$holee” = kinky pirate.

I am a school bus driver and I love talk like a pirate day. I have the kids name our "ship" and pirate the whole way to school getting them riled up with YAAR'S and Poop Deck. Then I set them loose encouraging them to be pirate rowdy all day (my payback to the teachers for all the holiday candy they load them up with before they go home)

You know I think it's really funny but I can imagine for a teacher it would get old really quick

September 19, matey. Teachers had no respect and should have been hung from their arms in the yard. Er, yard arms.

In the 80s us girls would talk that annoying valley girl talk. We didn't get in trouble but the teacher would not acknowledge us until we stopped talking like that. Like totally.

Kids don't realize that school don't legally have authority on them. Parents solely have. That school is not a prison, they are free to leave whenever they want, and that forcing anyone to stay somewhere against their will is unlawful imprisonment.

Is doing nothing in detention common in many places? Only time I was sent to detention (in France) was for skipping German class and they had us take a super difficult German test and convinced us it would count towards our grade. Then they revealed it was basically a university level test and that we couldn't have possibly completed it and it would never count.

WHY!? PUNISH THE IDIOT NOT THE VICTIM! If someone breaks into your house, and they shoot you, but you shoot him back, you are not gonna punish the victim! Schools just want "zero violence" which does not make sense.

Sure...I don't doubt that they could read but I'm pretty sure they don't kick kids out of preschool for being able to read. My son didn't get kicked out of his preschool for being able to read.

I would finish assignments early and do something else but my math teacher would make me follow along with the assignment anyway
