English Paper Due Tomorrow

Post by Robert Treder »

It's 2:07 in the AM, I have work at 10:00, and a four page draft about violence in the media is due at 19:00. Needless to say, I haven't even begun to write it.

Should I:

a) Get cracking! Double check the printer's ink level, make sure the word processor is set up to MLA standards, and hammer that sucker out!

b) Scrawl out two pages in thirty minutes. It's only a draft, after all.

c) Fuck it.

I'm thinking about starting on option 'b' right now, but 'c' is looking mighty fine...

That is all.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

Blather on about whatever you want and say it's cultural. They'll give you credit.

My personal inclination is C, with a healthy dose of abuse directed at any fool who tries to make you do your work. But since you're not a dysfunctional dog, I recommend B.

Yeah, I ended up writing the entire thing in the thirty minutes I had in between work and school. It's just a draft, after all.

By the way, I'm 18. My paper was surprisingly good considering the shit topic. And since I've been reading Wong's and others writings on logic ever since I found his site in June of 2000, I was able to more effectively pick apart the arguments against media violence.

I really wanted to cite Seanbaby's articles on media violence:
http://www.seanbaby.com/news/col-lawsuit.htm
http://www.seanbaby.com/news/jackass.htm
http://www.seanbaby.com/news/nike.htm
But, I decided against it...to present his arguments, I'd have to clean up his language and remove the humor, which would defeat the purpose.
