I got so stressed about the time limit that I just fuckjng stream of consciousnessed all over it. why the fuck did I not just rewrite the paragraph. I had like 15 minutes left. need a premature autopsy performed on me to figure out what the fuck is going on. Finals week is regressing my brain back to fifteen years of age 
Hey I once procrastinated an application for a nation-wide state sponsored contest for new writers. You had to provide 40 pages of material + an additional piece of art of any type that you’d made in response to a series of prompts of theirs. I had a year. I did it in a day… They told me it was some of the best stuff they’d read in years. I once wrote 70 pages of an urban planning project in a single night and got an A.
This isn’t to humblebrag, this is to calm you down: Don’t discount your stream of consciousness.
You’ve been thinking about the project for a lot longer than 15 minutes, you’ve been moving the pieces around in your head. Writing it all with no time for corrections isn’t necessarily as bad as you fear: it means you also had no blocks, no time to stop, no time to diminish raw unfiltered power pouring from your brain onto the paper.
You wrung your mind and heart out in the time you had, because you couldn’t do anything else. You didn’t have time to hold back. That might not be a bad thing.
You’re going to be all right. Whatever you gave them is far from the worst they’ve received and it is at least interesting. It will be fine.
Everything will be well and this too shall pass like a wave breaking on a pier. You will still stand tall after, stronger than before, but with a much funnier story
Also your professors are all nerds so they will appreciate the referenceI watched The Bear and used Escoffier’s Brigade system as an example of alternative methods of organising labour in one exam and an alternative to organisational structure in another class. I had not prepared for these exams. I pulled it out of my ass. My profs loved it.
Profs love weird shit from left field. It makes it seem like you’re so into the material you don’t even feel the need to bother with it, so you’re comfortable getting weird with it
hell yeah comrade
Editing is just fancy second-guessing
trying to take advantage of your professor’s weebish tendencies by composing your argument with familiar symbols is academic dishonesty
I don’t even know if this guy has heard of anime, I just couldn’t think of another metaphor because I’m operating on 3 hours of sleep
lol I’m virtually certain they’ve read less coherently composed arguments wrapped in even less accessible allusions to/allegories of popular culture
congrats on completing another final
what was the most “what the fuck?” thing you learned in environmental law?
mostly just reinforcement of my hatred for antonin scalia
Just making sure he knows you didn’t stealthily make AI write the answer.
AI would never
Absolutely disagree, that’s just knowing your audience.
so when I use havana syndrome gun in reverse to decode my instructor’s most emotionally salient visual memories to optimize discussion posts for participation points, it’s “unethical”, but when whyesseff does it, it’s knowing her audience?
It’ll be a funny story later (it’s already a funny story)
You get it back and it just has Congratulations written on it over and over.
Did it at least make sense?
I used an AT field across the states as a metaphor for hypothetical iron-fist EPA pollutant regulations
I mean, yeah. It kinda makes sense, if you know what a AT field is.
But that actually makes sense lol
That sounds more coherent than some bits of Eva tbh.
Oh, as in EVAngelion.
We need to shut anime down until we can figure out what’s going on
tbf the second impact was an environmental catastrophe
This is incredibly funny I’m so sorry
Also what Egon said
shinji get in the law exam
If it makes you feel better, I found a random ass excuse to drop Samurai Jack in my politics of Eastern Europe class to critique the antisemitism under Brezhnev, since Gennedy Tartakovsky’s family pulled out in 1977 because antisemitism was that unbearable.
Now OP, if there’s any other things you got to drop in essays we’d all love to hear it.
