now this is funny, but not at all surprising. an assignment i had in an African Music class included the question "how many countries are in Africa?" and this dude asks "Umm, professor, is this a trick question?"
My professor says, "depends, what's your answer?"
and this rather pompous arse goes "well i never thought that it
wasnt a country. but hey, what do i know?"
fast forward to our final. the professor puts it on our final as a bonus question but doesnt tell us how many points it was worth. Not only did more than half the class STILL answer "One," but the ones who got it correct got bumped the next grade up on their final grade.
(Not that the class was incredibly hard to begin with, but if your overall grade was a B+, then you got a A-. I guess that helps, if say, you screwed around all semester and pulled off a C- or something.)
the point of the story, i guess is
