I have a friend who was suspended from high-school for (indirectly) refusing to do a word puzzle. His stated reason is that he doesn't like word puzzles. When he was asked to leave the room for failing to follow instructions, he refused. The punishments escalated and he refused each one on the basis that it was overblown punishment for refusing to do a word puzzle. Eventually he reluctantly agreed to a week's suspension because the only worse punishment available was expulsion.
He still carps on about being suspended for a week for refusing to do a word puzzle.
