   It’s tough taking a pop quiz by itself without two people looking over your shoulder.

   Looks like Danae is going to be in the principal’s office again.

   yes, enhanced studying or enhanced interrogation is cheating and unethical. I get the point.

   More accurate euphemism would be “enhanced cramming”, Danae!

   Another euphemism for copying (pertained to assignments, rather than exams) that I learned in university was “road map”.

   Way back in high school four of us in the back of the room, put our desks real close together for a geometry test! Dumb to begin with! What were we thinking, our teacher wouldn’t notice? Guess where we ended up? LOL! Our parents WERE NOT HAPPY!

   This assumes that the person you’re copying from has the right answers.

    I learned that cheating rightly got me better grades than guessing wrongly.

    “I’m allergic to the wrath of teachers” wins for BEST LINE EVER.

    Although the “getting the answers right” deal was an Archie Bunker line, the last panel is too funny!

    What rath of teachers? These days they are more concerned about the rath of students. Their principal desn’t back them up. The school board hides under their desks for fear of litigation. Danae is smart enough to know this.

    Does anyone else wish there was a compilation of Danae comics into book form? I so want one.

    ArthurAllen says:

    “This assumes that the person you’re copying from has the right answers.”

    That’s part of the meta-test: making sure you cheat off the right person so as to get the right answers.

    Like the personnel director who had several qualified finalists for a job, so he decided to give them all a test and hire the one with the highest score. Two had the same score, with only one wrong answer. The guy who was not hired objected. The Personnel director replied, “True, you both had all correct answers except for one. However, where Mr. Smith answered, ‘I don’t know,’ you put down, ‘Neither do I.’”

    Oops - Bmonk - you’re getting me in trouble. I’m not supposed to LOL at work. It detracts from the illusion that I’m working!

    Danae would do well in the Obama administration.

    Actually, I cribbed the story from Click and Clack/Car Talk, so it fits the theme of the strip doubly well. (Triply, since they got it from someone else…)

    ArthurAllen, you’re so right!! A lesson to be learned in the workforce, too - if you’re going to take the credit for someone else’s work, make sure it gets praised first, then tell everyone you did it.
