He threatened you to either buy a new book or he would make your uni career hell, one of my mates did it, at the last exam he sent him back 5 times, the last time he went to take the exam the coordiator said "what else have you got to ask to him; he told you everything in your course; [insert name] give me the paper" he signed the paper and sent him off; the prof. Still gave him only 60/100.

I still want to slap that piece of shit.

After that i taught other people in the uni to do that; he tried to mitigate by writing over the printed title of the book; hoping that any tampering would be evident; toluene didn't touch the toner, so it didn't work

Edit: grammar mistake (thanks mac)

hi 👋

just fyi:
"teach" is one of those words in English that has a different suffix for it's past-tense: it is "taught".
Eg. "They taught me to sew."
"teached" is improper.

Note: not to be confused with "taut" which is pronounced the same.

I had originally wrote taught but i confused it with "pulling something tight" so i went with what would get the point across even if it was wrong.

Edit: fixed it now

No judgment, I think its interesting the little high-stakes decisions we make like this though.

"Oh no which spelling is it? Is there time to search it up? Oh no my train of thought is fading! Send send send!"
