Line 83:
* Partway through ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix|Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix]]'', one of the students points out that Umbridge is in violation of one of her own arbitrary rules. Subverted in that [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them|all that happens is that the student gets a detention]].
 
=== [[Western Animation]] ===
* Done once in ''[[Pig City]]'': the [[Sadist Teacher]] becomes the new Director; only to lose his job when students prove he doesn't know Latin, which is required to perform this function.
* An episode of ''[[Doug]]'' has Doug's ''entire class'' put into detention by [[Dean Bitterman|Vice-Principal Bone]]. This prompts a ''Quailman'' [[Show Within a Show|fantasy sequence]] where Doug's superheroic alter ego faces down the Rulesmeister, master of arbitrary rules, and eventually defeats him by pointing out he's wearing mismatched socks, one of the many things he has a rule against. This carries over back into reality, when Mr. Bone snatches a comic book...and Doug points out that one of the rules is "No Grabbing Other Peoples' Comics!"
