When I was in school, I wrote many many essays. I wrote poetry analysis,about political and religious dilemmas, book reports, and even video game reviews. I even wrote why Manhunt is an educational tool that helps people realize how horrible people are when they are forced to do things for their life! But one of the essays I wrote had to be about how the most recent book we read has to correlate with modern events. Well since it was right when there was a major attack on a US base in Iraq and I just read the Redwall book Mossflower, I was at sort of a loss. I had to completely rephrase the message of the whole book, and say that all the cute woodland rebels were wrong and evil for attacking the poor weasels, ferrets, and stoats inside the castle. I also wrote how that their tactics were terroristic, and solved nothing in the end.
So, what was the weirdest essay you wrote?

I think my memoir essay. We had to take a memory, break it down, analyze it, and state how it relates to our life now...mine was horribly awkward.

Not exactly a weird essay, but a weird result. I was writing an in-depth essay on memory and identity for my philosophy BA, and after I'd finished I stood up and had a moment of existential uncertainty. For a second or two I didn't know what made me, me. It was very disorientating... and then I was okay.

Philosophy. Handle with care.

Writing about the worst thing you've done or something like that. I wrote; "Sitting in school, listening to this crap and having to write about it over and over."

I came up with an essay that argued that there was only ever one "Revolution" in human history, that being the French Revolution.
I do have to thank my Irish History proffessor at Dundee Uni for inspiring this idea.

I wrote an essay on how me writing this essay was a waste of my time.

Got a 100%.
I've always wanted to write a five-paragraph essay about why I hate five-paragraph essays. You have earned my respect. *salutes*

Do you recall what base it was that got attacked or when it happened? I may have been there.

Anyways, the weirdest essay I wrote was actually given to me as a punishment by my team leader at the time. I forget what it was about but I remember having to write 5 pages and I managed to pull it all out of my ass, what made it the weirdest essay I've written is the hidden message. on page 3 I spelled "Fuck <inset team leader's name here>" with the first letter of each line. It probably took me longer to make everything line up (team leader's name was 7 letters long) than it took to write the rest of the essay.

I mentioned this before, but it's relevant here, too.

I once wrote a paper about giant mutated space chicken, who sacrifice human testicles to volcano gods.

I got an A.
Somewhere, somehow, L. Ron Hubbard's ears just pricked up.

It was in Mosul. Their was a humungous Cement Mixer VBID, and there was a huge hole in the gate, but the machine guns tore the terrorists apart.

I wrote an essay on the evolution of the zombie in media. Before 9/11, death was seen as a slow, ominously approaching thing. After 9/11, death was something that could spring out at any moment, ready to surprise you.

got an A for my essay on how much the Tempest is like a fairytale. Was very proud of that essay, so sad when my pc crased and deleted it all. Apparently, that mark was all because I put in so much random information.

I wrote an essay on video game addiction. I've so far used it 3 times throughout my college years. Not exactly weird, but its certainly interesting getting different grades on it each time.

We had to write about our "hero" in our lives. Didn't have one, so I wrote about Harry Potter.

I got a 94. Damn straight.
