Self-plagiarizing anecdote: in uni we had a subject called "Technical English" where we had to learn amazing words like "printer" among other things. Obviously nobody took it seriously. About 5 minutes before class I realized a short powerpoint presentation was due that day on some "technical subject". Fortunately our teacher was substituted and we had done a presentation like it before. So I took my last presentation, changed the name to something vaguely different (as I knew it would be written down), repeated my last presentation word for word and no one was the wisest. Saw a few grins as my classmates started realizing what's going on ^^; _edit_ I'm not from an English speaking country in case anyone is wondering.
