I take umbridge with that blog entry title! The essay I wrote in mirror-writing deliberately to piss off the test grader netted me a near-perfect score. I wonder if they were grading by chutzpah.

My world history teacher doesn't actually read the essays, just gives them automatic 100s if they meet the length requirement, so we put as much crap in them as possible. It's not really trolling since nobody ever sees it, but we have an ongoing competition to see how much of that song we can fit in without him noticing.

I've always wanted a teacher who graded by length, just to try and pull something like that.

I had something close happen once, where, in order to fulfill a requirement for a class, I had to write a "self-as-writer" evaluation of three pages. The professor openly admitted it was dumb, and she didn't really care and nobody was really going to read them, so I basically wrote a paragraph about the assigned topic and then rambled about Watership Down and Pixar movies before ending on a slightly official-looking conclusion.

I was tempted to write for my final AP English paper an interpretation of Charlie the Unicorn as a coming-out story. But I didn't.

Written or no, I would like to know how your argument would've gone.

Man, that's the shitty thing about doing a business degree, far less opportunity for fun stuff like that.

About the most fun thing I got to do was use the word "bullshit" in a quote relating to mission statements.
