    One time on a test, I was given the question "Why does x=y?" or something like that and I wrote "Because Kurt Angle willed it to be so".

    I had a speech class taught by a man who was probably about 70 years old as a freshman. I was able to use a rap lyric in the conclusion of every essay I turned in.

    In a translation for a German test, I accidentally wrote sweatshit instead of sweatshirt, and the teacher wrote "hahha, I needed a laugh." and gave me two bonus points.

    I was never that bold to write "Fuck off" on an essay. Back in high school in economics, I was asked why they are making new 20's, 50's, etc. I used the Jadakiss line: "Cuz I got all the old ones - that's why!"

    Last semester in Theology I used the DMX line in "Slippin' ". "You see to live, is to suffer. And to survive... well, that's finding the meaning into suffering." I made it sound so profound, though she didn't buy it.

    Still got a B in the class though.

    My junior year in HS this kid who was in my math class decided to do something similar. It was Algebra II class, and our teacher gave out our test. This kid obviously had issues but I'll say no more.

    As soon as he got the test, he looked at it for about fifteen seconds, wrote his name on the test, raised his hand and the teacher came over. He tried to hand in the test without completing a single problem. She refused to take it and said he had to write at least something on the test. He just took the test back, looked it over for a minute, wrote something on the test and handed it in and left not five minutes into the test. When we left the classroom we saw the test on the desk and we saw that he had written only his name, and drew a large penis on the test.

    He got kicked out the following year and joined the Marine Corps.

    Epic. I should do something like this sooner or later.

    Usually, if I don't know something on a test, I write "I don't know". I'm not that creative. [​IMG]

    On a geometry test in my freshman year in high school, the goal was to "find x" on a triangle, so I circled x on the question. I sucked at math.

    I always listened to the teacher.

    I did that a couple of times, but none of my math teachers thought that was amusing. I was just actually hoping for some partial credit.


    In one of my English classes, we were supposed to explain the significance of a particular quote that no one remembered. I just went with "The quote is so significant that I am in no need to explain the true significance of this quote" Didn't work, either.
