krissy: that reminds me of an article I read where one school had plagiarized the rules against plagiarizing from another university. It ended up being a non-story because such standards are apparently copied almost the same all over, but it still sounded amusingly ironic.

I plagiarize everything I do.
Only cool kids plagiarize. I don't. I edit.
Only cool kids copy. I don't. I modify.
I don't copy, I modify. Only cool kids modify.
Speaking of plagiarism, back in February I was done for plagiarism, wrongly I might add, when I left 3 footnotes from a Jurisprudence essay. I was livid! When I went to meet the head of the law school about it he said on scale of 1-10 my plagiarism was 1.5! I mean wtf
I handed up the repeat Jurisprudence essay on Monday it had 21 foootnotes I missed nothing
I never plagiarism, I simply rewrite, phase out and input my own...
Never really did like to cheat but I remember during Art history examinations ALMOST everyone cheated Yes including me...Infact I'm pretty sure our Professor was on to us but did diddly squat...He's paid too much to care about such things...
Oh he has caught me several times..But I'm a charmer so I use to look at him with such doe eye looks o my face as if I never even thought I would ever do such a thing! Oh I pretty sure he had a crush on me cause I could have gotten away with more than cheating...However I never was a swinger....
Like I said never did like to plagiarize but I'm really lazy and couldn't give two f.arts and nickel to properly reference something....
Come to think of it.. I hope they published my dissertation..... Now I'm worried !!! 0_o

Thesauruses are awesome. I did a whole year of university using someone from the year above work. No one even batted an eyelid. And it's not like I could not do it I just could not be bothered. But perhaps that was a waste of time considering the reason I couldn't be bothered was because I did not like the course and ended up dropping out 2 years later.
I did a kid's biology project for $10 and he got a higher grade than I did. Wtf?
It's ok if you use quotation marks.

I cheated twice in tests, but that's not really the same, is it?
Everything I do, I plagiarize.
I used to edit and revise papers for $3 a page in school. As far as plagiarizing, I never did. I was always good at integrating another person's words into my own as well as referencing their statements correctly.
Though, MLA style is so stupid to use when compared to Chicago Style, and why they even continue to use MLA baffles me.
I never copied anyone's work. Given my grades I probably should have.
The messenger is standing at the gate
Ready to let go
Ready for the crush
Too late for whispers
Too late for the blush
The past is mercy
When the future is aglow
