Ya know, I remember when I was a kid everyone talking about getting their mouth taped shut, and certainly we taped our own and each other's mouths shut regularly, but I don't remember if a teacher actually did it to any of us or not. Note: scotch tape is a crappy way to tape your brother's mouth shut. He'll sweat/lick/spit the glue soft and work free. Much better to use duct tape.

Something I heard about... yeah, that's it.
