I am surprised at how casually he dropped this in there:
"When I was in college I used to write papers for my friends. It was quite interesting to write a paper for a class I wasn't taking. Plus they were always so relieved."
Yikes. Really?
- imjk 12y agoActually, I appreciate the way he candidly writes things like that. I get that you're pointing out the moral implications of doing other people's school work, but that'd be another essay all its own. In this context, it's an example that proves his point very well as it's a context almost everyone can relate to.

- solve 12y agoMost surprising thing I've ever seen him write. Gave me a bit of a laugh.
