Title: Most Ridiculous Answers to Essays
Post by: StupidFriday on January 03, 2009, 08:06:20 am
Thought I would start this thread asking you all, what is the silliest, wierdest or just plain most ridiculous answer you ever gave in a test or essay for school?

Ahaha.
One of my exams said that if muck-up day got removed everyone would get really bad exam scores and there would be less doctors and stuff and it would effect the whole world and we'd all die or something like that...

We were supposed to write about how historically accurate Friday Night Lights was and I wrote about bad everyone sad it was.  I got 95/100.

How about these though, they always give me a good laugh:

haha those are funny. The weird thing is I actually have an easier time visualising those than i do with some that my teachers have given as examples, stuff like ""His love is like a rose".

His love is like a rose?? WTF?? does that mean that his love is sometimes scented and sometimes not and could be lots of different colours and varieties??? LOL

I once, at age 10, wrote what I thought was a really good story which included how someone was fatally wounded - I didn't know at the time that fatally wounded meant the dude would be dead. Didn't get a very good mark for that one!!

And you can buy it for $10 at supermarkets/flower shops...?
And they sometimes live in dirt...
And have thorns.
Yes, his love is EXACTLY like a rose ;)

:D :D That list is hilarious, Axel!

The most ridiculous answer I can remember giving on a test was not on a test, but was a 'poem' I wrote when I got bored. I guarantee you, I'm a better poet than this but um ya boredness doesn't sit well with me :P This is why I make sure I never get bored, lol:
Boom, boom, kaboom.
And arrow goes through his heart.
"Ow," he said, "That hurt!"
"That really really really really really
really really really really hurt!"
And then he died.
Boom. Boom. KABOOM!
Here's a cool poem I wrote just now. I couldn't come up with any words that rhymed with 'watch' or 'silver'... soo...
 
I once had a watch.
I called it Spotch.
It was silver.
It went 'kababablilver'.

It wasn't a test. It was an assignment in Science class.
We were working in groups and my partner and I just did not fee like doing it at all.

we were studying maps and latitude and longitude and blabbidyblabla
one of the questions was something like where is bunny mountain located on the map?
And I wrote boom crash bang or some crap like that.

we continued to fill out the rest of the worksheet with random words. it was great.

I remember writing Haiku poems in 5th grade, and they had to be winter-themed. Mine went:

Deer jump in the snow
People kill deer with their sleds
The deer are so dead.

In 6th grade, we had to do this "almanac scavenger hunt" where we had to look up the answers to geography-type questions in an almanac, and I couldn't for the life of me find what the average population density of Indonesia was. When we had to turn our assignments in I still hadn't found it, so I wrote "Francine" and handed it in.

It's sad how I remember these things after 4-5 years.


Title: Re: Most Ridiculous Answers to Essays

and the prompt was something like State how blahblahblah(some random country in some time long ago) and blahblahblah (some other random country in some time not the same as the one above) similar?

i put:
"they have people and those people obviously would have children. Of course that civilization would also have some form of a spoken language.... Also, those people would have homes, people need homes to survive, even in our society today!"

i obviously didn't do well on this test.... lol

When I was in school, I was in a good deal of boring advanced classes. The english teacher gave us way too much work, (like reading 3 stories in 1 night and answering 15 questions in essay form for each story). One time, I knew if I actually did it, it would not be done by the next morning. I tried anyway, and got through most of it. But one of the questions for the last story was asking me what the irony was for something in the story. I put:

"The irony is that I hate this class. Stop giving us so much work!"

It made no sense, but I was so tired I just didn't care.


But my friend topped it for silly answers to essays. For an assignment, we had to do a fake letter to a company to complain about how our t-shirt was wrong when it was delivered. She wrote something along the lines of:

"Dear -------,
I am a very busy woman, and I would like to let you know that when I ordered a shirt from your company, I actually intended to wear it. But upon delivery, I found to the offense of my very soul, it was too small. I am stressed out, and I hate my life. I know I wanted a large, but what you don't know about me is, I eat when I am upset. Well, my husband refuses to work, so I have an 8 hour a day job, every day, even weekends. Hhe refuses to clean, so I have to do that too. He refuses to cook, so I do that as well. I got kicked out of my church for fighting, I want a divorce, I broke my leg, and I just found out my daughter Martha is sexually active. Did I mention that she is only 17! I just can't take it. I was upset so I ate, and now I am an XL. Please make my life a little easier and send me a bigger shirt, lest I shoot my husband.

Sincerely,
---------"

She didn't get a good grade. The letter was WAY longer than this little blurb I put. I just slimmed it down so y'all wouldn't be reading all day.

Hm, I'd say the funniest (and really this isn't all that funny, since I'm boring) thing I've written, was for an essay.

The first English class of the year, and with the famed English/Socials/Law teacher in our school. We had to write an essay on something we learned over the summer. Since I hadn't learned anything, obviously, I wrote about all the methods I developed to avoid my parents/work. Got a pretty decent mark too, since the teacher is made of awesome.

Hmm...I think it was science class in 8th grade. The question was something like, 'If you threw a rubber ball and a snow ball off of the roof of a very tall building, which would hit the ground first and why?'

I'm fairly sure my answer was "The rubber ball. Duh. The friggin' snowball would melt first."

 :D I remember him tagging a note next to that answer that said "Haha. Very funny."

I remember one from algebra when I was a sophomore. The question was along the lines of "What is the square root of <insert random formula here>?"

LOL Jenna!

We had a test, and it was asking me what Santa Anna did to upset the Texans.

I said that he and his wife gave them all presents. I'm pretty sure he isn't married.
It also asked what he was afraid of. I put intimacy. Lol. :)

Usually in math I put 24 for my answer if I don't know it. It pisses the teacher off. Once she took off more points because I was WAY WAY WAY off and I didn't show any work so she knew I guessed it.

And usually I put, I don't know. Hey hey, I answered it! And when questions ask what I think, I complain when I get them wrong because I say that it was asking your opinion.

My friend (the same one that wrote the complaint letter) was taking her math test, and it asked this long complicated thing, something like 3y÷14×+2  ≥  ¾y4 -10x÷4
It asked her to say if the statement was true or false.
She put: "I don't feel comfortable answering this question."

We just had exams and one of them was for music, i was told to describe a piece of 20th centuary orchestal stuff that was being played, for 10 marks.
My answer:
Well this composer obviously took the idea of a cat in a bag one step furter. He added a couple of birds and some mint ice cream and used a blender. That mixture was then left to simmer on a pan which was beaten with the cats pre-removed skull.
Needless to say I am failing that subject...

jajajjajaja these are all HILARIOUS guys!

once my math teacher was trying to teach us how y depends on x (y=2x+3)
so we had to do a cause and effect chart..
i asked the teacher if we could do anything we wanted and she said "yes, as long as
it makes sense" so my friend and I felt like being silly and this is what we came up with...


cause                                  effect

if i chop off my hand..            i wont have a hand anymore!
if i take a shower..                my hair will get wet.
if i spit on the teacher's face   her cheeks will have saliva!

and on we went xD

the teacher got super pissed but we still got our 100
i mean, it made sense didnt it? ;)

This didn't happen to me, but one of my teachers told my class this story about one of his college professors.
The final exam completely consisted of: Why?
So lots of people started writing huge essays on everything they ever learned in class (my teacher included) and their grades were B's and some A's.  Two very brave people answered simply:
"Why not?" and "Because I said so!"
Those two people got A pluses.  Lol!  1tehe

I found an old Biology test of mine when I was cleaning out some clutter a while ago. And I quote:

"You come across two lions fighting for control of a territory. One is clearly larger than the other, but sports a limp. The other is smaller and younger, but more agile. What do believe the outcome would be?"

My answer: "You wouldn't live long enough to find out."

Speaking of old school amswers...  I was a lil PO'd at my American lit professor in college.  He'd teach but then when he had an exam I quickly learned he liked only answers that were in total agreement with his own (like he knew Faulkner and Hemingway personally 1pfft).  I got mad because on the exam he'd alway ask a "what is your opinion of (whatever character or act we were reading)?" question but then subtract points if he didnt agree. 1wtf
So on his last exam he added an extra credit (what is your opinion of...?) question, so I wrote:

"Well  you asked for my opinion so here it is: " --> (wrote mine here)     "But since you usually prefer your own..:"--->(wrote his) He wasn't amused. 3thumb

GO YOU for stickin it to the man!!!

I did something similar in 10th grade, we had to read a poem about the "hardships" of some man, I think he was meant to be "representing" something (not like it matters now). The questions were something like this:
   5. Do you feel sorry for [insert characters name here]? Explain?
I wrote: No because I have had to learn about this since I was 6 years old and I'm getting sick of all this propaganda you are force-feeding to us you condescending cow.
   6. What metaphors has the poet used to make you feel sorry for [insert character here]? Explain their effect on you?
I wrote: Hmmm this is a pretty closed ended question now isnt it Mrs [insert last name of teacher here]? I already told you I DONT feel sorry form him!!! NOW  STOP TRYING TO FORCE ME TO FEEL SORRY FOR SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE YOU DO!!!

I had argued so many times before that with her on that subject. I almost made her cry once because no student had ever challenged her ideals before. I can see why she didnt like me but I wasnt willing to drop my beleifs just for a few good marks. And incase anyone is wondering I never got my marks back (she went on maternity leave) :( I would have loved to see what she would have written about my answers

It wasn't an essay, but just an assignment. We had to write about 50 vocabulary words & def. so my friend and I decided to make it fun. We wrote each one different. One was upside down, one was so small you needed a magnifying glass. We even wrote one completely backwards. We didn't get any credit for it...

In Florida, we have a test that's really important and determines if you pass or fail, and some questions require that you write a paragraph for an answer. The question was something about how animals help the world, and friend wrote about how Looney Tunes entertain kids everyday. It was priceless.

"What was [insert Chinese dude's name here]'s opinion on the opium trade and how it affected China?"

i just answered: "Well, since he was one of over 12 million Chinese people who were addicted to opium, i guess he was just too stoned out of his mind to even care."

needless to say, i got an A on that test :rolleyes:

My favorite was my Alg2 final last year. I wrote one word on each line, so if you read down the paper it said "What's the point of this class? Have I ever told you I really hate you?"[There was more, but you get the idea] And on the paper we were supposed to show our work on, I drew goldfish, unicorns, etc.

My friend topped me with the Alg2 final though: she colored a rainbow across the entire thing with colored pencils.

We both passed the final. :D

In about year 6 I had a test that I had to do and the question was 'If you have 150 apples in a barrel and you get 5 more barrels, how many apples do you have?' I answered with 'A s_!t load of apples' Amazingly, I still got an A.

In our final Biblical Aramaic test at uni, we had to give the perfect passive conjugation of the verb to build.  In English, my memory is blurry, it sounds something like banah, binoh, etc.  My friend and I were not expecting a passive verb in the test and we both paniced a bit.  Anyway, afterwards I asked my friend how she did with that.  She said that she just could not remember the correct conjugation and after many many variations of the word banah she just wrote in big letters across the page BANANA!!! and left it at that.


Title: Re: Most Ridiculous Answers to Essays
Post by: Jenna on September 21, 2009, 03:24:25 pm
Hahaha. Banana!! Always an appropriate answer no matter what the question. :P

I would've been more horrified than anything if anyone had actually failed that question. Hah.

Reminds me though when I was in fifth grade (I think), we had a problem on a spelling test that stated: "spell the word continent." 

...my answer was "spell the words try harder." The teacher wasn't amused at my answer to her trick question, sadly, and gave me a detention. Hah.

Post by: SenkoTwiik on September 22, 2009, 09:32:39 pm
Haha Jenna, I actually got the question wrong (technically only 1/2 wrong). I read it to myself and I was like, "Well that's easy. You have 150 apples and 6 barrels!" But then I thought about it and it got difficult. How many apples are in the rest of the barrels? 150? I actually had to write it down and do a little graph for myself to get 900 (150X6). Math isn't my strong point, y'all. I have to have paper or a calculator to do two digits or more.

But on with the ridiculous essay answer I remembered. My friend had to write an essay answer about the way he walks down the hall for creative writing. He put:

"I walk very quickly, with my hands in my pockets so that I don't accidentally touch someone's butt because the hall is so crowded! How embarassing. It ruins my entire day." He got B+.

Spell Mississippi.
I circled 'Mississippi' and wrote 'idiot' in red pen next to it. I can't imagine how I got away with that.
Another infamous answer I discovered was from the same test. The question was:
Sihad has 20 marbles. If his mother gives him 15 times the amount of marbles he already has, how many is he left with?
My answer was:
Sihad's momma is a big fat slut.

In the section where it says 'what can student improve on?' the teacher had written 'student needs to speak with less sarcasm and dark humor and improve her spelling' (it had my name.. not student.. but eh.. I'm such a internet prude)

My "improvement" thing was always penmanship. My stupid, old 5th grade teacher tried to grade me on it when it WASN'T a school approved thing to grade on. She decided to try going over the school's rules and gave me a D- 'grade' on my handwriting. My mom thought it was stupid and told the teacher so, said she "didn't know why the teacher feels like she needs to waste my time with grades that don't even exist. How childish, and she's supposed to be a teacher?!" Needless to say this same teacher had a whole bunch of problems with me throughout the year.

Here's an answer I gave in her class. I didn't find it on a paper, but I was going through one of my old journals from 5th grade, remembering all the good times I had with my friend (who passed away earlier this year) and I found a segment where I was talking about a math test. Apparently the teacher wrote a really hard question on the test and I answered it with:
"You didn't teach us this."

^ sounds like an evil teacher.

Anyways, not too long ago in U.S. History, we had to do our history logs (what is your opinion of... stuff over a section of notes we took), and my friend, Chance, didn't have his notes. So the teacher said that if we didn't have our notes, we'd have to "amuse" her and change her mind about it.

Well, Chance wrote down a funny story that he'd heard from one of his football buddies as his history log and the last thing he wrote was, "You wanted us without notes to amuse you, right Mrs. Rosas? Well tell me if that wasn't amusing."

When we got the notes back last Friday, Mrs. Rosas wrote in red ink, "We're not on the same page, are we Chance?", but she still gave him a 75 for making her laugh.

It was a question about quantity or something, one of the questions like Joes has some amount of something, he gets another amount, how much does he have?

I answered "One Metric Buttload" and got half-credit.

HAHAHA! The word "buttload" should have been funny enough for full credit.

Define ocean current.

(My best friend answer)

-It's when the speed of the sea water increases dramatically and causes slight or heavy swell. (The translation is more or less like that)

During a recent physics test, one of my friends didn't know the answer to one of the problems, so, because our physics teacher is a huge Packers fan, she put down "Go Packers!" as her answer. :D And she still got half-credit.

Art history test.
Question:
Egypt, the pyramids.
Malen (my friend) answered:
Dear Mr Tachenko, I'm very very sorry but I'm not able to answer your question. Unfortunately, yesterday afternoon, my father got sick and we had to go to the hospital, therefore I couldn't study. Could you be so kind to repeat this test tomorrow? Thank you very much.

She was lying...but the teacher beleived her. Amazing.
