Ever sat in an exam and felt like writing stupid answers to take the piss? This bloke did. Read his paper.

I do things like that from time to time. Never for most of a test, though...it was always one or two questions. Damn.

Things like this are pretty common....but always funny.

Trying to think of one or two clever ones from me...

I had a multiple choice question in calc 3, and had to show my work. I had absolutely no fucking clue about it, so I wrote down a little truth table, and said "flipped some coins". When I finished the rest of the test, I noticed that there were 4 A's, 4 B's, 3C's, and 4 D's. So I went back, crossed out my table, and wrote "Had to balance things out". I got half credit.

I knew one guy who submitted every word written on a 2 liter bottle of Dr.Pepper for a resume. The teacher said it didn't have to be your actual resume.

There's still a webpage I had to do for some class floating around the net. The teacher wanted a resume, I wanted to finish everything before the class ended. So, my resume is "Education: yes. Work Experience: yes." I got a B.

I had to draw a simple state diagram for one class, and turned it into a 10 page, elaborate report (complete with a correct diagram).

Some guy in a high school class of mine drew a picture of Depends for a math problem. The same guy, when asked to "complete the square"...drew a square with one side a dotted line, and then filled it in.

I've concluded papers with "I hearby conclude this paper. The End. Thank you", and other similar things. I always did well with them, too.

If you're going to fail something, at least have some fun, and fail it wonderfully.

That looks like a GCSE exam.

I generally do that when I write summaries for articles. I hate writing summaries, so I just have fun with it. I usually fail them, and am usually not nearly as witty as I think I am.

I'll see if I can find one...

Heh, that was great. I knew those aliens were up to something.

When I was in the 11th grade, they decided to use my class (grade) as a baseline for the proficiency tests they were going to start giving to students in a couple years. We had several days of testing, and these tests had absolutely no relevance for us. My homeroom had some fun with that one. Most of it was scantron, so we couldn't get too creative. The best was on the essay though. We had a girl who was fluent in spanish, so that's what she wrote it in.

The first class of kids who took that test for real must have looked like geniuses.

We had to take something similar, but totally different.
It was a study behind drug use. We were in fucking 7th grade, in a fairly good 'hood. Yeah, the place has a heroin problem now, but most kids stay out of trouble until high school.
When we found out our names weren't being put on this test, we made ourselves out to be the most cracked out district around. Our answers probably didn't throw anything off, but it sure was fun circling the "i only use PCP in social situations", and other similar things.
"i know many people my age who carry firearms"

My Thesis went like this:

I was like,
good gracious, ass is bodacious/I'm flirtacious, tryin' to show patience/
I've been lookin' for the right time to shoot my steeze (you know)/ Waitin' for the right time to flash them keys
Aint nothin gonna stop my juice/ So baby tell me what the fucks the use?

(I said)
It's gettin' hot in here/So take off all your clothes
"I am gettin' so hot/I wanna take my clothes off
Oh it's gettin' hot in here/So take off all your clothes
"I am gettin' so hot/I wanna take my clothes off

I gotta tell you... I got a D on an exam last week and my answers weren't half as funny.

I bow to his excellence.

in math 12 i did not know very much, so when i got to the opened ended part i wrote two pages (indicative of the time on my hands not spent on the test, perhaps) on how if they were truly open-ended then i wouldn't be limited to the correct answer, and how i didn't want to live in a world ruled by the cold certainty of numbers and have my children crushed under the boots of 7s and 8s, and how i had an answer to her "open-ended" question: the answer was FREEDOM!
i mostly failed, and when i got the test back it said "why are you taking this class?"
