Sounds just like an essay that I wrote in a senior English class that I ended up getting the only A any undergrad ever got that year from that professor. He happened to point it out in the class because he said it was the first time he went from a grading a paper from an F to an A
He said he fell for it completely - hook, line, and sinker. He was ready to smash me in front of the class for being so preposterous and ignorant, but that I saved it with just one line from the essay. I wish that I could find it.
