MyLifeIsAverage

Life is pretty normal today.
A guy in my school had to write a essay on courage that was worth 60% of his grade. Instead of writing a 3 page essay like everyone else, he wrote "this is" and turned it in. Guess who got an A+? He did.

No he didn't. I'd give it a C-.
 
breathecarolinafan Good: 7 Bad: 1 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
I'd give it an F.

Eh, it gets originality in that it's courageous to not even capitalize or punctuate, or use the proper font.

If by "he" you mean the kid sitting next to that guy who actually finished the essay, then yes.

Are you serious? I hate it when they do that!
 
thecookiejar Good: 9 Bad: 1 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
I hate it when they ask questions such as "Guess who got an A+?" or "Guess who got a high five and made the populars jealous?" and so on. It's not...average.

This would be really good, but this story has been around for ages. I think about 4 years ago was the first time. FAIL
 
Devils_Advocate Good: 7 Bad: 1 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
No, this would suck just as much if it were the very first time.

Cloughie94 Good: 5 Bad: 0 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
Yep, I heard the same story in England. It's probably fake, just some guy who thought he was really cool probably said it.
 
zmcg Good: 7 Bad: 0 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
This is an old riddle, but the test was about risk. One student turned in the paper, blank but for the word "This." I don't think the OP knows this though. He/she/it just thought itself clever and made something up.
 
PERFECTLYpar Good: 2 Bad: 1 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
OP could have also copied it from older MLIA posts. They were a popular trend for a while...

The 19 gives it away. We can always tell if it 19s copy and pasted. It replaces apostrophies...

You know, on snopes, there's a story just like this. Either that guy reads snopes or this was made up.(somewhat)

I don't get it. The person only wrote "This is"? explain please!!!
 
murlockwarrior Good: 0 Bad: 0 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
This is, Pretaining to the topic of the essay, Courage. So quite literally "This is (Courage)."
 
karntie Good: 2 Bad: 2 1 month, 1 week ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
The actually story goes that a college application essay asked "What is the most courageous thing you've ever done?" and the applicant replied "This is." See, that ACTUALLY makes sense.
