I am a 17 year old kid and I happen to be taking an SAT class. For those of you who do not know what I am talking about, be thankful. This is a one on one tutoring lesson in which a fat, racist, slob of a man yells at me when I answer test questions wrong and then proceeds to give me rediculous amounts of homework. Seeing as I have to leave for this class.. (now..oh well ill finish first) I have spent the afternoon doing/not doing this. I spent the last 10 minutes alone carefully removing the last 8 pages (30 minutes) of a packet he gave me with an X-Acto knife in order to make it look like they were never there. And the other packets he gave me I simply threw out and am going to pretend I never recieved them. Of course this class will not go well and I will update everyone on the reprimands i received, but hey why work when you can not work? Anyone pull stunts like these?

As a cynical Canadian, I'd like to point and laugh at your misfortune, but as a 19-year old Canadian, I shudder and thank God that I did not have to take such a test. Good luck in all of your future endeavours, JYD (does that stand for Junk Yard Dog, as in the late 80s WWF wrestler?), and welcome aboard the good ship Chefelf.

first off, yes as in the 80s wrestler..my hero. and well i am back and how did it go you wonder? well at one point he casually accused me of doing what I did, although he looked very hard and saw no tamperment. Being the bastard that i am i did not allow this light comment to go under the radar..no sir. Instead i blurted "hey, i resent that!" which sparked a heated argument with a well-spoken, 45 year old college professor..obviously i lost that argument, but the important thing here is that i Haven't Learned My Lesson. To my downfall i will continue to be lazy and why you ask? Because im just too lazy not to be.



Side Note: Whether it is in my sideview mirror or directly in my face, some bastard thinks its a good idea to go around all the time with his high beams on. I am sure this has caused just as many accidents due to road rage than those it has prevented due to old people not being able to see at night.

are you typing all this while you're driving?

[jyd]

ahaha no, but I am relatively new to the whole driving thing and it amazes me how people who have done it for years can suck so bad at it.

I must say I have had the best luck surrounding the SAT/ACT issue. I decided simply that I wasn't going to take the ACT (mid-western SAT) and apply for college anyway, with the hopes that, being art schools, they would be flexible enough to admit me purely on my portfolio. Well, I recieved a letter from one saying they could not except me without my scores. However, somehow my portfolio had still been entered in the scholarship competition. By all manner of un-concievable luck, I was awarded a significant scholarship and the school contacted me telling me that becuase of this they would officially accept me under the promise that I would take the ACTs at the next available time. Long story short (err, shorter), I walked into the testing room with the full knowledge that I could answer whatever the hell I wanted on the test and it didn't mean a thing.

Moral of the story: Being a lazy american teenager worked for me and it can work for you too.

Ideed, Jon.

I always say that pedestrians are usually better drivers than anyone behind the wheel of a car. That's why I walk everywhere.

[WalrusOfPlastic]

Wow! Thank you Jon.

In Detroit pedestrians aren't all that great drivers either. I think it's generally assumed that, despite crosswalks and "walk"/"don't walk" signs, anyone can cross the street wherever and whenever they feel like it.

Hello JYD, welcome to the forums. I procrastinate by reading/posting on forums and websites and such. And the College Board is an evil monopoly.
