That's it...I'm done.

Paper is going off the list of my stuff to do...

Okay...so the paper technically is 10 pages with the works cited page included...which I think he said counts towards page numbers. I have 8 and 1/2 pages of pure freakin' typing...I am totally out of things to say....I've exploited all of my sources, not to mention my bullshit reserves. I have nothing left to say about memory representations...at all. I've covered an encyclopedia article and a 12 page article by some guy. As far as I'm concerned, it's not going to get any better than this and if I continue to add crap to it, it will just get shittier and shittier. If I get less than a B on this paper I will freak the fuck out. Personally, I think an excess of 2750 words is enough, don't you? (though it feels like much more)

To give you a little taste of the style, this is my first paragraph(which I also think is one of the shortest)...from here on it gets really, really technical until the end or those places where I explain and integrate material.

"Philosophers over the years have often agreed on the same basic concept of memory as having some sort of image or impression left in a person’s mind after encountering or experiencing some event or object. Is this really the case? One of the most debated aspects of this view is how is something that does not physically exist capable of representation? Memory is without a doubt one of the most important decision making tools that people use, but how trustworthy can those decisions be when they are based on such an abstract concept that is far from being completely understood?"

I'm pretty sure I'm done with this...I just can't bring myself to screw it up by adding filler...more than I already have, anyway.

Heh, thanks. Speaking of confidence, I thought I screwed up my last calc exam...turns out I had one of the only 4 A's in the class...so maybe this will be similar.

Sounds like a nice dose of bullshit to me.

Well done.


Bullshitting is a skill, I believe...one that I like to tune whenever I get the chance.

I have to disagree here. Bullshitting is an art. I am indeed an artist

My entire minor is devoted to BS... which I am grateful for.

Congrats mate, how many papers / finals do you have left?

I always thought that was a degree?

Congrats on the paper - ignore the birthday question, and enjoy the day.

SHE getting a tad Australian on me?

I have 4 finals to do...and they start Tuesday next week. Tonight I have a little "performance" to give...and by "performance" I mean I'm going to read something. After that little thing, it's all downhill except for the studying...which isn't bad because I don't have to turn anything in.

I always thought that was a degree?


One I'm currently earning, actually.
