* Cadets at the United States Military Academy (and several other military schools in the US) perform a variation of the trope when they get in trouble. Instead of writing lines, they march back and forth in a courtyard on the campus. Presumably part of the deal is they have to maintain proper marching form while doing so, which can be ''exhausting''.

The severity of the punishment can be fine-tuned by altering the uniform and equipment requirements. The default is wearing fatigues and carrying rifles; lighter punishment might involve PT uniform (gym clothes) and no weapons. Heavier punishment might involve full combat gear, including a heavy pack, or dress uniforms -- with the cadets being forced to spend hours shining and polishing before ''starting'' their punishment.

** The infamous detentions with [[Characters/HarryPotter Professor Umbridge]] in ''[[Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix Order of the Phoenix]]''. Harry is forced to write with a quill that doesn't use ink, but as you write, the words are ''etched onto your hand'', and the writing appears on the paper in ''your own blood''. He still has the "I must not tell lies" scar in the last two books. And the wound proper doesn't appear the first time: for Harry to receive the scars, he had to write the line several times, every night of the week, on several occasions.

* Parodied (unsuprisingly) in the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' book ''Discworld/TheLastContinent''. The Bursar recalls a fellow student wizard who invented a machine to write lines for him, however preparing the machine and winding it up took far longer than it would to write the lines (this is a sign of Progress). Nevertheless, other students would queue up and pay to use it, until an experimental multi-quill version exploded.
