So what's the dumbest thing you got in trouble for in school? Mine was doing a book report on War & Peace in the 6th grade. My teacher thought I plagiarized it or had a family member write it for me because she felt it was "above the appropriate age for me". After telling her in person about the story she changed her mind. I haven't read the book since then and couldn't tell you for the life of me what it was about but I remember that vividly.
