Yep.

Because when I was younger I first learned about the flavor from these fruit flavored Italian Ice, and since it had Piña Colada with the other fruit flavors, I just assumed that piña colada was a fruit too, and they made it into drinks.

Eh, I can't really blame you. I never knew it was an alcoholic drink. I always used to drink piña colada flavored carbonated water.

I have to stay after school on Tuesday for detention. Bah! What I did was hardly grounds for detention, especially considering what my apparent "victim" did to me.

I took a friend of mine's backpack and hid it in a locker. It wasn't locked or anything. In retaliation, he attempted to steal my glasses and then poked me in the forehead to irritate me. So then some other kid comes along and tries to get us to fight. Of course, I didn't want to get into any more trouble, so I went away. Of course, the kid had to go and bother my "friend", resulting in my friend hitting him over the back with the bookbag. And then during lunch the school disciplinarian took me aside and said I would be given detention for "repeated harassment". It wasn't repeated, it was one time! And then the other two got off scot free! I don't even care anymore. Yes, I shouldn't have hid the kid's backpack, but he shouldn't have attempted to steal my glasses! At least I hear detention isn't that bad.

Solution: don't take people's backpacks.

Or rifle them and sell the contents, if you have to go to detention at least make it worth the time.
