Remake of Went's thread (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=108171), because I was too lazy to think of a thread idea myself.
For me, it was probably the time my teacher told me to write a letter to a friend and stain it with coffee. Apparently, it was meant to give the letter an olden feel to it (like the tattered, brown parchments you see in movies) but in my case, it failed. The coffee went through the paper and made a massive hole in the middle. It also managed to make my writing completely unreadable. I might've been able to do it slightly better if I told why I was pouring coffee onto it in the first place.
But yeah, what about you?

Your forum details reveal that you are, in fact, one year old. This evidence has made me compelled to point out that if you have been given any homework, you are probably in preschool.
I rest my case.

The other day I had a question on my English homework that asked "Have you ever bought underwear based on a commercial" it was a chapter about advertising.

When I was in 11th grade, we had to make a picture of Peter Griffin then resize it by 6 times. That, or the time in 8th grade when we had to write an essay about why our butts get so large. Health class was living hell.

It's this. I have to make a court case in two days or get a zero which would probably break my grade. D:

I got something similar to this, but instead of a letter it was a report on an important historical figure in the American revolution...In America!
Epic. Coffee. Fail.

In 8th grade, my Spanish teacher assigned us to go out into the parking lot after school, write down names of the car's (companies and model names), then change the accents over the vowels to immitate how a hispanic person would pronounce them. >_>

Make a Journal that the topic is "What is Love?" =P in English, and in Social Studies, find a picture of different places in Asia and discuss it in the class.

I can't really think of any nowadays, my homework is generally serious stuff mostly these few years.
But one that pops into mind is: "Go look for some moss in your garden."
It was for a Biology experiment. o.o

I'm sueing your teacher for coffee abuse. Get ready to rest for a few days.
Oh, and my weirdest assignment was probably a time when I had to draw some man with my attributes and yada stuff for English. It was super hard and everything was goofy, but I wasn't alone :D.

I was asked to watch a Sitcom on TV and answer 5 questions asking about the conflicts between each character.
I wouldn't call it strange, but my homework usually isn't that random.

Oh, that's a hard one, Kevin. :(
I believe it was when my old English teacher got us to write a whole paragraph of whatever we wanted, but the words couldn't contain the letter e. Do you have any idea how hard it was? Very.

I had a similar assignment TODAY in Algebra II except it was to write a story where Math plays an important role in the plot. That is the wierdest assignment I have gotten in a Math Class O.O

Another fooked up thing is when my teacher asked my class to buy her toffee for our homework. It was counted as a quiz grade. Most of us didn't do it, and we failed the next class. D:
