Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[misericordias]

i had to do a senior project when i was in high school and i'm pretty sure i put less work into that than we are for these fictional children's homework

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[browbeats]

I had to do one for my senior English class and I cut out felt letters and glued a Shakespeare quote on a bigger piece of felt and went "here give me my A now I have a lot of people to go disappoint after graduation"

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[misericordias]

we had similar attitudes tbh

i wrote a paper on synesthesia it was basically a book report idk why they let me get away with it EDIT OH MAN I FOUND IT IN MY EMAIL LMFAO TECHNOLOGY IS AMAZING

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[wilhelmeana]

LOL I MEAN i think there's probably plenty of gb alums who ended up putting in minimal effort senior projects and that's... fine, lmao, they were just the more unremarkable graduates of gooseberry

archibald, class of '13, inventor of the smooth-writing endless ink quill vs. jerry, class of '13, wrote a 12 page book report

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[misericordias]

ok excuse the fuck outta you because archibald invented something incredible and i hope he's a gazillionaire now? or at least as famous as laszlo biro. like. do you know how many pens i blow through marin

jerry sounds like a fuckin idiot tho

edit: goddamn it your edit makes my comment make less sense I TAKE YOUR POINT i thought you were giving two examples of failures and i was like "wow the quill sounds amazing tho fuck you"

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[quinning]

Big Ink probably put a hit out on archibald and now he's running for his life in lima

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[misericordias]

i heard he entered a monastery just to hide

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[wilhelmeana]

LMAO YES I REALIZED MY INTENTION WAS NOT CLEAR ENOUGH archibald is great, everyone knows his name now, he's rolling in dragots

jerry is working in wizard retail

but you know what they're married and both of them are very happy

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[misericordias]

jerry has other skills and archibald loves him very much ok

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[quinning]

v impt q

to each other???

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[browbeats]

did not realize there was another way to interpret that

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[wilhelmeana]

i like to think that jerry and archibald's wedding was also during spring break

but everyone else in their class went to the ramirez/downing union instead

but you knOW WHAT. IT'S FINE. THEIR CATS WERE THE WITNESSES. THE THREE-TIERED CAKE WAS TASTY. THEIR FEUDING MOTHERS MADE UP OVER WINE

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[quinning]

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[browbeats]

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[solveforx]

Well Jerry maybe if you had done your senior project on wedding invitations instead of writing a small novel on The Fountainhead you wouldnt have had this problem.

dark senior confessions time:

i waited til the last minute and wrote a song about giant squids using info i pulled from wikipedia to present to my oceanography class and i got an A

for senior english, i wrote my final paper on the psychology of pedophiles (WHYYY??? HOW DID THAT GET APPROVED??) bc i suspected my teacher had an inappropriate relationship with my best friend and i was feeling petty. i got an A. (i actually put a lot of work into it tho)

i cheated on my chemistry final by storing all the formulas on my graphing calculator

Re: SENIOR PROJECTS

[professionalcorpse]

Oh, graphing calculators. They were so good to us.

Also: That song sounds amazing. And I took a whole class on serial murder, so that really doesn't seem like a weird paper to me?

In one of my cinema classes, the teacher wanted us to write on a genre that had at least three films in it - I'm pretty sure that he intended this to be ACTUAL genres, but his rules weren't clear enough, and his mistakes are not my fault - so I wrote it on Batman movies. (Of which there are enough, spanning enough decades, that they practically can be their own genre. I stand by it.) I got an A.
