fun trick to pull next time you have to submit an essay or paper

StageLeft

Do your best to include the word analogy in your submission except add an extra r for analorgy. I think you could get away with it and easily feign ignorance and then scan the paper in and submit it to me for quality-rating and we'd all have a good fun laugh and chuckle and holler.
 
Hehe, yeah that would be pretty funny. I'd do it but all my classes this semester are math and sciences and we never write essays. 🙁
 
I've always wanted to submit a rough draft for a paper--a really good rough draft--then come back with a final about robot pirates.

A friend suggested that I write my BA not about an economic/political interpretation of the first war with tripoli, but about the old west. About ten pages into the paper, he advised I digress into poker strategies, then drinking strategies, then gunfighting strategies. I didn't have the . . . willpower.
 
i once wrote about the NRA when i was explicitly told that it was a bad idea to do so.

never wrote analorgy though.




anyone else notice that skoorb threads have a different... flavor... to them?
 
Back in HS, my friend typed up a science paper for a friend who was bad at typing and he substituted lavatory for laboratory.

The teacher and the guy were not amused.

Hah, that sounds awesome.

I like your friends idea.
 
haha, lmao, I'm in a philosophy class right now and have to do in-class essays...analogy comes up quite a bit 😉

I got a 48/50 on the first paper...maybe I should go for it 😀
 
This reminds me of a stunt a friend of mine and I pulled back in high school. One of our mutual enemies had saved his final paper on the school computer, rather than using a floppy disk. Brian knew a trick that would allow you to access any other files people had saved in their accounts, through a hole in the word processing program. We got into his science paper about plants, and changed certain key words. Transpiration became transmogrification, chlorophyll became chlamydia, pistil and stamen became... well, you figure it out. We used the features in the wp to change every instance of the original words to the new ones, and we changed a lot of other words, too. He printed it out the next day and handed it in without rechecking it. 😀

LOL!

That is cruel!
 
A friend of mine in university in a bio final - he knew he was going to do badly so he spent about 30 minutes when he was done writing it to write "I am a fish" on the back many many times and filled an entire page with it. He handed it in and actually passed barely.
 


<< what is "analorgy"?
English is my 3d language BTW, and Dictionary.com came up with nothing.

Seperate it into two four letter words, then try again.

If you're not kidding go look up these words in dictionary:

analogy
anal
orgy

Now combined you'll see what analorgy would be.
