this is the kind of thing that I woulda done seriously as a kid and then get so mad when the teacher marked it wrong, damn unclear questions!

I had a problem with all the math questions where someone would have 6 apples and share them with 2 friends and the teacher expected that to mean 2 people with 3 apples each instead of 3 people with 2 apples each.

Wait it's not supposed to be two people with 1 apple each and me with 4?

A little too repetitive. A one size fits all approach. Mixing it up should give extra credit. Like „the key is as long as several pins“.

And "the eraser is as long as anal beads."

[-] SippyCup@feddit.nl 4 points 2 days ago

Either that a large eraser or weenie beads

[-] Slovene@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

Slightly bigger eraser and beginner's anal beads.
