I was suspended for a day (which was a "Saturday Suspension", meaning I had to go to school on Saturday) in high school for reading "offensive poetry". A girl who was a complete bitch (notably lied to the police to try to get a friend arrested) was the featured reader at a poetry reading with an open mic. I read a very simple poem about her being fat then left. I was forced to write a letter of apology, which was extremely verbose and sarcastic, and a friend printed 1000 copies of it so the whole school could read it. I still have people message me on Facebook years later because they remember how hilarious the incident was.
