You mean you guys aren't fans of hastily constructed projects written on poster board where the writing starts off really big at the beginning and then gets progressively smaller as it goes across the board while curving upwards?

They should have called shotgun then!
That challenge accepted is just awesome. I did that for nearly every assignment I ever did at uni. There were only two I can think of that I didn't do that with. My favourite was leaving a group assignment until the day before, without realising it was a group assignment... so I had to get permission to do it on my own, group assignments done by one person own because they flow so well. One of the two aforementioned assignments I did early was a group assignment that I did the whole assignment for(I got into the zone and decided it would be easier to finish and email to the other 3 then to have to do the whole group thing). Got 98 out of 100 on it, good for the top mark, rest of the group were pretty happy and the assignment that took every one else I knew a few days to do took me a few hours by cutting out all the stupid meetings and collaborations and the sort!

I once wrote an essay for a Latin test (3 pages) about Mr Miyagi versus Darth Vader. I got a 25 because I sprinkled in a few basic latin words.

LOL. I just read the antimatter story and submitted it as an article for my Science, Tech, & Society class...
Then I saw that comic and had to copy & paste it to the end of my class discussion post. Hoping for extra points.

My question is did you nearly dislocate your wrist or did you nearly get all 12 bags in one trip?

The trick is to use one of your forearms like a pole to hang the bags on. I can get a good half dozen or more bags when I do that and not put a bunch of pressure on my wrist and fingers. :D

They either make plastic bags differently over there or you have tiny forearms! I physically could not do that.. It's pretty easy to man it out if you lock the door open on the way out and don't have to deal with that!

Last day of classes was today. The submitted timestamps on my final assignments were 11:58:04 PM and 11:59:34 PM
I take that challenge to the extreme.

The longest essay I ever wrote in high school was based on the premise of Pantera being on a pirate ship. I miss creative writing.

Myself and two of my friends rewrote "The Odyssey" in street slang. Wish I still had a copy.

I had to do a video re-enactment in my US History class, and we had to do a few clips of different things. I think ours was the Boston Tea Party/events leading up to it. So I was the only senior in the class, so naturally, I had to write the whole damn thing myself. So I did the entire script in ebonics and made the underclassmen act it out. One of my proudest moments in life.

Which is so hypocritical/ironic in light of recent events - to be sure.

Ha, that is true. They do it for bandwith purposes, though.
I will say, though, that the whole anonymous thing came off with them looking like an idiotic bunch of children.

I understand the motive, but the people who were speaking up on behalf of anonymous (which really destroys the point of anonymous in the first place) came across as self-righteous twats.

To use some of their own words - "I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and **** a better argument than the one they made".
