Today, I got back my history paper. The whole paper had been crossed out and at the end, my professor had written "Really?!" I still don't know what I did wrong. FML

winterbee123 tells us more.

Hi all - I'm OP. I actually went to talk to my teacher and it turns out when he tells us to do "citations" he automatically assumes we know he actually means "footnotes". I accidentally started crying during our meeting and I think it freaked him out, so he's offering me a chance to rewrite it! Ah, the power of a girl's tears!

Have you thought about talking about it to her or him?

Really??

If you indeed wrote bullshit, you have no case. If you feel like you tried your best, report him/her. They should be correcting constructively.

They have given you the chance to submit a new and better paper.

if you want to know what he meant, try asking him.

That doesn't seem like a productive assessment of your paper. However, you need to speak with the professor if you want to know what he "really" meant.

I still did Nazi what's wrong!

jesus people try attach a pun on everything huh? ill admit, i usually find that joke amusing, had this fml stated the history paper was on WWII or the nazi regime, but it didnt

95- You must not be familiar with the term Grammar Nazi. I thought it was clever as grammar could've been what was wrong with the paper.

It's a pun WITHIN a pun... genius!

I had this happen to me in English. My teacher circled my introductory paragraph and write "WTH??" with regards to my thesis. I still can't find a reason why it got a C-.

I'm guessing you disagreed with his politics.

r u sure? :p

The moon landing wasn't a hoax. The Salem Witch trials didn't kill real witches. The Germans didn't win WWII Am I getting close? ;)
