TRUE STORY: When I was in third or fourth year at college, I was running out of time to finish two papers, one for communication sociology and the other for semiotics. I had less than two hours to finish both and I went, fuck this, it's impossible to write them both seriously. So I prioritized the first one (teacher was a hardass) and in the time I had left (fifteen minutes, maybe) I made up whatever junk I could come up with for the semiotics class, which was a COMPLETE JOKE taught by a schizophrenic (seriously, he was once institutionalized after yelling at the dean for not enlisting him in the CIA). Anyway, among all the "semiotic" crap I typed, I wrote, "
according to Yves Rousseau's proto-cross theory". THERE IS NO SUCH THING AND THERE IS NO YVES FUCKING ROUSSEAU.
Got an A. True story.
