I had a teacher give me 3 lunch detentions for wearing my hat in the school about 3 weeks ago. Than today he passes by someone that had her hat on and didn't say i word to her. I was so angry about this. My metals teacher also tries to charge me 50$ for scrap metal that has no value.

Oh in 8th grade i was literaly 2 seconds late for class and my science teacher made me stay after class for 15 minutes.

I had a tech ed teacher who I didn't like. He always yelled at everyone. One day, I was about 15 seconds late getting through the door and he stared at me and went on for several minutes about how you should get to class exactly on time.

But I did get on his good side at the end of the year, when I completed a program for a robot that everyone else had said was impossible. I had to make the robot transport 4 wooden balls. When I told him that I was finished, he said the I should show him it and that every time the robot dropped a ball, he would take off 25% from my grade. Fortunately it worked perfectly. :P

So, the program wasn't impossible. You just needed to have a pretty good attention span and a bit of common sense.

I was in the 4th grade, and we were in some portables, so we could see some people mowing the school's lawn outside.
Anyways, we had a substitute that told us that if we didn't shut up, we would grow up stupid and end up mowing lawns outside for a living, and never be able to have a good life.
It would have been really funny if some kid said, "But that's MY dad out there mowing the lawns!"

Well, one of my old teachers gave the whole class a 5-minute lunch detention for talking. Note: not everyone was talking, but everyone got detention. Now, she told us on Friday that we would have lunch detention Monday, but she never bothered to remind us of this fact. Needless to say, 90% of the people (including me) forgot, and were screamed at in class as a result. We showed up on Tuesday and sat there for 5 minutes, then basically ran to lunch.

The joke in my school is that her classroom is far away from all the other classrooms because the other teachers didn't want their classes disrupted by her yelling at her students.

I got sent to ISS. Funny story, actually....

Well, I was in Jazz Band when I was in 11th grade, and the band teacher (who is known for being rather ridiculous sometimes, but we all love him anyway) told the drummer to "play a beat" during the drum solo, because she never played that song before. So she played quarter notes on the cymbal, and he started yelling at her. I piped in with "She did exactly what you told her to do!" and he glared at me. I knew that he wanted me to back down, so I glared right back at him. And boy, did he explode. He told me to get out, and as an afterthought, to go to ISS (in school suspension). I walked out, wandered around for a few minutes, realized that I didnt know where the ISS room was, and came back. When I told him I didnt know where the room was, he sighed and told me to sit in the band room (Jazz is in the Jazz Room, a tiny room that barely fits the Jazz band, and the band room is much bigger). I went in and saw the other band teacher giving a flute lesson, and after a few minutes she asked me why I was there. I explained everything, and she sighed and said "...Is he in one of those moods?" I said "Yep" and she just nodded and went back to her flute lesson.
