Look at this essay that my room mate wrote

I guess if it's a joke and the professor has some idea that the guy can write better than this, then I hope the professor doesn't accept it as a completion assignment and gives your friend the option of resubmitting a 20 page research paper or taking an F in the class.
 
you should...pardon me your roomate should go ahead and turn this essay in...not turning it in would be unfair to the other students...


after all after graduation they will need someone to take their orders for a big mac and a side of fries...
 
Just noticed, this is one sentence 😀

"I also thought it was hard to pick good topics that were good and easy to write good on and some times it could take me hours just to pick a topic that I would do good in and that I could write 1000 words on but after doing it a few times I have gotten better at it because of the practice I got from doing it which if not for this class I would not have gotten the practice need to master this skill which I am now really good at due to being in the class and practicing it over and over again till I became really good at it and was able to do it real good because of the practice I got from the class I was in in which I practiced it till I was real good at it from the practice "

Oh and I'm serious. This is a _REAL_ essay that he's going to turn it as part of a term project.

Reflective Essay
As being a student in my English class, I learned to write good. Some things were easy and others were harder than the easy ones. I learned a lot by doing different things.

One of the things that came easy to me was writing real good. I have wrote a lot of things that are in my opinion master pieces like all my projects including this one. One of my best things that I do is write with a really big vocab and I write with sentence structure that is also quite well. I also have top notch grammar due to the really good teaching and the good class objectives that I leaned from real good.

One of the hard things that I thought was hard was writing essays that were 1000 words. I mean, who am I? Tom Clancy. But through my being smart and being skilled at writing good, I was able pull it off. It was hard to find time with having parties everyday and having a job and other classes and eating and sleeping and bathing and what not. I also thought it was hard to pick good topics that were good and easy to write good on and some times it could take me hours just to pick a topic that I would do good in and that I could write 1000 words on but after doing it a few times I have gotten better at it because of the practice I got from doing it which if not for this class I would not have gotten the practice need to master this skill which I am now really good at due to being in the class and practicing it over and over again till I became really good at it and was able to do it real good because of the practice I got from the class I was in in which I practiced it till I was real good at it from the practice.

One of the things I learned good was researching. I learned how to use data bases to help me write good and get information for things that I needed information on. Peer group ideas dident help me that good but the teacher conference and the journals were good practice. For example, when I turned in my 1st project for review I had 1 or 2 mistakes that my peers dident see two good. But my teacher saw it really good and taught me how to fix it good so I could get a good grade.

In conclusion, this course taught me to write real good. Probably better than most professional writers. I recommend it to any persons who want to write good like me and want to master things like grammar, big vocabs, how to get good info, sentence structure, time management, and other things like that. It helped me grow so much as a writer and reader and Im a better person cause of it.

He doesn't normally write like this. This specific essay is being submitted to the professor as a COMPLETION grade, not based on content. I still think it's a bad idea - professors don't think this kind of stuff is funny.... but he's still turning it in.

What the hell does that mean?



In any event, your OP is misleading. Apparently, this is a "real" essay, but it is MEANT to be bad since your "roommate" does not "normally write like this".

Not exactly a shens, but, not necessarily truthful at the same time.

I'm sorry, but most people don't write about you.
 
Oh, so he wrote this crap deliberately because the grade is based solely on its completion? I don't care anymore.
 
this has some pwnage potential if the shens can be substantiated

can't wait to break out the torch and pitchfork and hang the OP out to dry
 
B-

< English major

the ironic humor can not be denied. the only thing keeping him from an A is the redundancy (hence, the paper falls flat on its ass after the 2nd paragraph 2/5 = brilliant)) and his failure to spell "course" as "coarse"--totally kicks himself in the ass on that one.

plus, he just sounds like a complete douche with the paper. could have gone much further by showing some originality with it. He sounds like a bitter business student; pissed that he was forced to learn more than 2+2=4 while in college.

of course it's intended idiocy, that's the point.

problem is (for all you deniers) that the idiocy backfires. if he had learned to be consistent with his spelling, grammatical structure...this would have been brilliant.

it simply remains as an example of what your average mouth-breathing business student can accomplish when given a semester to complete a project 🙁

Agreed.

I concur ... no way did anyone write that outside of a special-ed class!


Shens x 100!
