NFT: Furk, I'm a moran (College related)
So I procrastinated due to a lack of personal direction and now have 24 hours to write a 5 page paper over the Sun Also Rises. Professor was open ended on topic and we only vaguely discussed a paper dealing with Robert Cohn but I dunno how I can get that to 5 pages without spamming block quotes. Apparently there are some other highly edumacated people on this board and I'd appreciate some assistance.

Sit down next generation, I'll be happy to hire someone to feel sorry for your lack of ingenuity...

Use the maximum available requirements that have been given to you. Margins, spacing, font size, etc. Never use contractions, always use the lengthiest words available to you. Try to not to use any nouns or verbs under 5 letters, use a thesaurus. Use in text citations wherever possible. End with a bullshit "personal reflection" that is several paragraphs long.
God speed. |

You ever notice when all the periods are size 14 font? That can add length and it's the only way I can recall that isn't completely noticeable.

It never ceases to amaze me how many dumbasses think that spacing their papers at 2.1 or 2.2 isn't completely obvious. Given that I follow MLA for all submissions, and I take rough drafts electronically, the easiest way to see if someone has ****ed with the paper is to first select all and then change it to Times 12 point, as that's what it needs to be for standards, anyway.

For those 50 pagers...do they actually read every page? Really...WTF? I would imagine TAs would go crazy if they had a stack of 50 page essays to grade.

Remember to properly cite referenced material or you'll be properly god-****ed.

It's not the length I'm worried about as much as the content.. I've had this professor before and he's pretty laid back about stuff. My 15 page final over Hemingway last semester was pretty shitty and I still wound up with an awesome grade in the class.
I feel pretty dumb as a 4th year English major having issues with a short paper.
