I feel you, man.  On one of my finals, I wound up answering the last question:

"Let X be a metric space and S a Cauchy sequence.  Then giraffe cubic elephant, because kittens birds hammock sunshine.  QED."

That was not one of my more glorious moments.
You can sometimes get some pretty silly marks in tests, though.

I mean, there was a question on a chemistry paper I did in which "Cheese attacks flying toxic flames" would give you the mark.  And that biology test where giving a wrong answer could give you a mark.

Not sure what marks you are talking about.....

Fucking flaming cheeses, how do they work?

Seriously though, how can that give you a mark? It makes no sense.

The condition for getting a mark was mentioning the word "toxic".  Nothing else mattered.

That would give you flying aces where I'm from

By flying aces, I mean flying fails in a brown paper bag that happens to be on fire.

Hey, you don't get that for 99% of questions.  It's just that, occasionally, the examiners get lazy :P.

In my house there is a interesting terrain. Also, there is a cockroach.

WHERE THE FUCK DID IT GO???
Also If my dad had got off his lazy ass and got on the other side of the counterwallthing this would have never happened. But apparently he does not grasp the fact that it is in fact more difficult to find a small thing, such as a cockroach. This is likely because the only thing his fat ass ever had trouble finding is his feet.

Still, this little bugger scooted off to places unknown and has pissed me off. Notheing ever turns out well for anyone when I get pissed off. Last time that happened, the roman empire crumbled.

MANGRIT DRIVE ENGAGED. NOW I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLY STUPID OR KILL THE COCKROACH.

Also fuck florida and your bigass magic cockroaches. Goin' all houdini on my dumb ass. Fuck that shit, I'll go all Ender's game on your carapace, beeyoch.

The fact that in my maths test I lost it and gave up. Only near the last couple of questions but still... It makes me feel bad that I gave up.

When in doubt, let X=X

and then you are never wrong.

The question wasn't even about metric spaces and Cauchy sequences.  It was a linear algebra final ._.;;

So the test was all like: X+8Y=34F+6^7

and you went

"Let X be a metric space and S a Cauchy sequence.  Then giraffe cubic elephant, because kittens birds hammock sunshine.  QED."?

Also, completely unrelated question: how long did it take you to do the above problem in your head? Is it even possible? I duuno, I just hit random buttons on the keyboard like a monkey.

I think I'm high of COACKROACH hate.
