This FAIL contains an R-rated word, so I'm linking rather than posting it, but I admit that:

1. It made me laugh.

2. It is a good reminder to be careful how you write exam questions, lest you get responses like that. (You still might, I guess).

I don't get a whole lot of "Hail Mary Pass" test answers, where the person puts something totally crazy and inappropriate in the hopes of getting sympathy points; usually they just leave the question blank. Which actually makes grading a lot easier but it still frustrates me: I will give partial credit even if they get just ONE of the necessary terms in there.
