In junior high we got a paired assignment in physics to "design" an island, with energy sources, industries and stuff. Me and my pal took it pretty much in jest (seriously, social planning in junior high?) and flipped out on it with lots of narrating text and pictures. When we got it back our teacher had written "Okay, but somewhat lugubrious". We had to look up that word. I still haven't figured out if she was ironic or just used the wrong word.
