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-.
 
[ - ]  breathecarolinafanGood: 7Bad: 12 years ago
I'd give it an F.
 
[ - ]  MobileGood: 6Bad: 32 years ago
Eh, it gets originality in that it's courageous to not even capitalize or punctuate, or use the proper font.
 
[ - ]  breathecarolinafanGood: 2Bad: 22 years ago
D-?
 
[ - ]  ThatVinnehGuyGood: 8Bad: 22 years ago
Too generous. Maybe an E+.
 
[ - ]  Devils_AdvocateGood: 3Bad: 12 years ago
E?

[ - ]  xfuckxGood: 4Bad: 32 years ago
I would have failed him...
 
[ - ]  AKissGoodnightGood: 2Bad: 12 years ago
F.
 
[ - ]  PoetsPissPizzaGood: 5Bad: 02 years ago
Uck??
 
[ - ]  AKissGoodnightGood: 1Bad: 12 years ago
Yesss!
 
[ - ]  PoetsPissPizzaGood: 0Bad: 32 years ago
*moans loudly*
 
[ - ]  AKissGoodnightGood: 2Bad: 02 years ago
Hey, you set that one up yourself.
 
[ - ]  breathecarolinafanGood: 7Bad: 02 years ago
Well, at least you know this doesn't make your life average...
 
HOW ON PLANET EARTH DID HE GET THIS GRADE?! I THOUGHT TEACHERS COULDN'T AFFORD CRACK AND DRUGS!?!? THIS IS SKEEVY! SOMEONE GET ME MY MONOTOMB!
 
[ - ]  bandaidGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
agreed
 
[ - ]  BoxWithBoxesGood: 1Bad: 12 years ago
Obviously you do not get it.
 
[ - ]  kulekatGood: 8Bad: 02 years ago
you didnt give me any time to guess!
 
[ - ]  DubiousKingGood: 11Bad: 02 years ago
If by "he" you mean the kid sitting next to that guy who actually finished the essay, then yes.
 
[ - ]  thecookiejarGood: 7Bad: 12 years ago
At least OP answered their own question this time.
 
[ - ]  MysteryIncGood: 1Bad: 22 years ago
Are you serious? I hate it when they do that!
 
[ - ]  thecookiejarGood: 9Bad: 12 years ago
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.
 
[ - ]  jonoisonfireGood: 19Bad: 12 years ago
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_AdvocateGood: 7Bad: 12 years ago
No, this would suck just as much if it were the very first time.
 
[ - ]  PERFECTLYparGood: 13Bad: 02 years ago
That's what she said.
 
[ - ]  Devils_AdvocateGood: 3Bad: 12 years ago
Meh. Ok, that was funny.
 
[ - ]  Cloughie94Good: 5Bad: 02 years ago
Yep, I heard the same story in England. It's probably fake, just some guy who thought he was really cool probably said it.
 
[ - ]  zmcgGood: 7Bad: 02 years ago
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.
 
[ - ]  PERFECTLYparGood: 2Bad: 12 years ago
OP could have also copied it from older MLIA posts. They were a popular trend for a while...
 
[ - ]  hamsta_luvaGood: 3Bad: 12 years ago
No, he did not. Silly OP. Get your facts straight.
 
[ - ]  deathtoelmoGood: 1Bad: 22 years ago
Don 19t you lie to me OP
 
[ - ]  Devils_AdvocateGood: 1Bad: 02 years ago
Copy paste FTL.
 
[ - ]  deathtoelmoGood: 2Bad: 12 years ago
FTL? Yeah I had to copy it from Microsoft because my internet stuffs up for some reason, how did you know?!
 
[ - ]  PERFECTLYparGood: 2Bad: 02 years ago
The 19 gives it away. We can always tell if it 19s copy and pasted. It replaces apostrophies...
 
[ - ]  deathtoelmoGood: 5Bad: 12 years ago
Oh, Haha thank god I didn 19t know what was happening!
 
[ - ]  xfuckxGood: 0Bad: 42 years ago

Lol u guys r hilarious! I read mlia al the time and I agree I hate it when the say " get who got phone numbers ?" or "guess who got highfives?" it's SO annoying and also I wouldv'3e gotten like a d- on it so that's really hard 2 believe
 
[ - ]  cjstaseGood: 4Bad: 02 years ago
lies, this is a very old story relayed millions of times, even used in a film.
 
[ - ]  avrillavigneFTWGood: 0Bad: 32 years ago
THAT IS COURAGE! WOW!
 
[ - ]  TheSuitGuyGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
I'd have given that paper 1 Free Internet! Then I would've slapped the OP and his/her friend so hard, it would've made their grandkids dizzy.
 
[ - ]  xianweiGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
19t!!!
 
[ - ]  xianweiGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
18 19 19 19 19 19 19 what 19s the issue with all the apostrophes 18 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19
 
[ - ]  xianweiGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
the first apostrophe comes out as a number 18!
 
[ - ]  tullfrogGood: 1Bad: 02 years ago
If I marked it, I'd write, "no that is laziness"
 
[ - ]  freeinsanityGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
You know, on snopes, there's a story just like this. Either that guy reads snopes or this was made up.(somewhat)
 
[ - ]  happytoodleGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
I don't get it. The person only wrote "This is"? explain please!!!
 
[ - ]  murlockwarriorGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
This is, Pretaining to the topic of the essay, Courage. So quite literally "This is (Courage)."
 
[ - ]  karntieGood: 2Bad: 22 years ago
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.
 
[ - ]  happytoodleGood: 0Bad: 01 year, 12 months ago
oooooh, i understand now. :)
 
[ - ]  chrissssstyGood: 0Bad: 02 years ago
uh, yeah. A+ for sure.
