detention

a school punishment, whereby a student is detained for a certain period of time. in detention, you might write lines, clear gum from under the table, read, write an essay, or stare out of the window whilst regretting what you had done to get detention in the first place. why might i get detention? cheating, talking, laughing, chewing gum, eating in class, throwing things around the room etc.

stay out of that detention room. its not fun. take my word for it.

teacher- i have had enough you’ve just bought yourself 2 months of after school detention!
student- not again sirr
teacher-would you like one more?

student- no
teacher- what was that?
student- no…sir
