* The Kigo fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3600705/1/What_Did_You_Learn_in_School_Today What Did You Learn in School Today?]]'' has Kim writing 'I will not engage in sex in the principal's office", after getting caught midcoitus with Shego by Mr. Barkin.

--> "I will not quack at the principal."

-->'''[[http://comicsalliance.com/comicsalliance-reviews-x-men-origins-wolverine-2009-part-o/ Chris Sims]]''': He’s writing “I will not leave this franchise for [[Film/SupermanReturns a Superman movie]]” a hundred times.

* ''Literature/SpaceCadet''. One of the cadets resents being pulled up over his lack of table manners, and when told to eat his pie with a fork instead of his hands, insists on getting the order in writing as per regulations. The senior cadet does so without complaint, then gives him another written order telling him to report to his commanding officer. He gets a roasting, and an explanation of [[OfficerAndAGentleman why such petty matters are necessary]], and an order to write out two thousand times, "I will eat my pie with my fork."

* A parody of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' intro on ''WesternAnimation/{{Histeria}}!'' has Loud Kiddington writing "I do not need a megaphone!"

* ''Harry and the Wrinklies'', about a boy adopted by a retirement home full of well-meaning ex-cons, has an amusing occurrence: Harry is unfairly given lines as a punishment, so the resident forger tells him to just do half a dozen and he'll print off the rest.

* In the 1956 young-adult novel ''Danny Dunn and the Anti-Gravity Paint'' by Raymond Abrashkin and Jay Williams, Danny's teacher, in an effort to get him to stop daydreaming about space travel, makes him write "Space flight is a hundred years away" over and over. Before he can begin the assignment, the spaceship his friend Professor Bullfinch has secretly invented is accidentally lauched, with Danny and friends aboard. They make it back to Earth and Danny presents the assignment to his teacher, having finished it during the voyage. She humbly says she'll keep it as a souvenir.

* ''Webcomic/DarthsAndDroids'' uses a NoPaperFuture version of this trope [[https://darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0401.html here]] when Yoda punishes Count Dookû by ordering him to Say one hundred times: "Jedi don't break promises!" Okay, Dook&ucirc is a grown man, but bear in mind that (a) Yoda, being nearly nine hundred years old, still thinks of him as a child, and (b) this is a role-playing game where Yoda is being played by an actual child.

* ''Series/TylerPerrysHouseOfPayne'': Ella makes Curtis and Jazmine write '[[SwearWordPlot I will not use profanity]]' near the end of "What the ... ?" after learning that the latter learned the bad word "Hell" from Curtis. [[HoistByHisOwnPetard It's not long before Curtis makes Ella do it when]] ''[[HoistByHisOwnPetard she]]'' [[HoistByHisOwnPetard says it]].

** In "The Birthday Bootlegger", when Stewie has to go to Detention at Quahog Elementary School, he sees Bart Simpson writing "[[DisneyOwnsThisTrope It is a pleasure to work for the Disney Corporation]]" on the chalkboard. He then says, "Oh, that is such a load of..." but is suddenly cut off by WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse dubbing his voice and saying "Truth! A wonderful load of truth!"

* Some episodes of ''[[Series/DoubleDare1986 Super Sloppy Double Dare]]'' had a physical challenge where contestants had to stick graduation caps on a chalkboard. To introduce the challenge, Marc would have to stop Harvey and Robin from writing "[[DuelingShows I will not watch]] ''Series/FunHouse''" on it.

* Italian ComedicSociopathy series ''Series/CameraCafe'' has [[TooDumbToLive Paolo]] ending up this way because he screwed with [[TheUnfairSex the girls in the office]].The result is this trope, but on a paper sheet lying on the floor. An enormous one, at that. It covers [[UpToEleven the whole corridor]].

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' imagines doing this until he's an old man, then an even older Mr. Bone orders him to do it again after flipping the chalkboard.
** After Doug flips the script on Roger after the latter got the former and the rest of the class kicked out of the news in the same episode, Roger has to do this as punishment as well.

* ''Webcomic/DarthsAndDroids'' uses a NoPaperFuture version of this trope [[https://darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0401.html here]] when Yoda punishes Count Dookû by ordering him to Say one hundred times: "Jedi don't break promises!" Okay, he's a grown man, but bear in mind that (a) Yoda, being neary nine hundred years old, probably still thinks of him as a child, and (b) this is a role-playing game where Yoda is being played by an actual child.
