So I won't be naming any of my future offspring Peter

So in a new low attempt to get out of doing school work, and ignoring the fact that I should be looking for jobs (I've applied for some lately so I guess that's good....nothing is turning up), I've been paying special attention to the site "Funny Exams". (check it out here if you're interested funnyexam.com).

Basically the site pays tribute to funny exam answers that teachers and probably even parents post for others to enjoy. I know that there is also a popular forward that has a bunch of funny exam answers in them but this is the full meal deal.

So I'm flipping through the funnies, looking at answers, reading real students essays on people (one particularly entertaining one about Will "Fresh Prince" Smith, where the essay was concluded with "Thanks homes smell ya later!".) and events (where it was quoted that "like all Spanish things, El Ninio was evil"...their words not mine), and I'm noticing that all the really funny ones are all penned by students named Peter. No word of a lie.

I have observed "Peter" write an essay on Walt Whitman, describing him as 3000 years old and 30 stories tall, might I also add that "Peter" stated in the introduction of his essay that the only reason for writing said essay was because the teacher said to either "Pick a poet and take this class seriously or not bother coming to class anymore". Your teacher is going to see you're strong academic worth ethic here I just know it! (I can't get the photos to embed but heres the link if you're so inclined: http://funnyexam.com/answers/popular/1607-the-most-amazing-biography)

"Peter" takes to it again in a biography of an influential person in world war two : Jimmy McPearson. Jimmy McPearson, 'Peter" describes, is a "not well sung hero. He's not in any textbooks and he's not known by many people, and some might argue is not even a documented citizen".....this doesn't look promising..."Peter" continues on, "Jimmy was born to a nice slave couple, grew up in Harlem Chicago, and joined a gang to get his "props""......ohhh dear. Peter goes on to describe Jimmy as a gangster who was living "good" till the "Japanese sprung a sneak attack on his home town killing his parents instantly". Apparently the history books missed that too. Basically the rest of the essay goes on to say that Jimmy went on to plot revenge against the Japanese, saying he killed Hitler.....yup "Peter" is clearly in the know here! (if you would like to see Peter's rendition of WWII click here! http://funnyexam.com/answers/popular/1648-lol-the-teacher-comment-o)

So after seeing "Peter" take a stab at Walt Whitman I was shocked to see "Peter" take to the keys for another informative essay. This time on Christopher Columbus. This go round "Peter" take time out of his busy day to tell us all about how Christopher Columbus, a famous explorer took to the seas with his three trust mates, "Maria, Santa Maria, and Tupac". "Peter" then goes on to describe Columbus' discovery of the "New world" including interesting details of the excursion including "their radio broke after a fierce storm" and how they lost Tupac "within in 10 minutes" of finding civilization, which evidently turned out to be "dumb uncivilized intelligent apes". I would also like to add in that the marker does add-in in bold red writing "not again...". "Peter" had striked previously making be believe that these two "Peter's" might just be the same one.......(read this Peter's Columbus essay here: http://funnyexam.com/answers/popular/1622-lol-2nd-line-not-again)

Our next "Peter" entry takes away from the literary world and puts us into the middle of mathematics. Literally. The next "Peter" paper takes us to math class where "Peter" is asked to "expand (a+b)to the Nth".....so he does...much like this... =  (a+b)n  =(a   +    b)n    = (a          +          b)n...and well you get the point. This answer received a small "oh peter" comment.(see "Peter's" stellar math skills here: http://funnyexam.com/answers/popular/1634-oh-peter-xd-you-re-doing).

After extensive research (all done while avoiding research I should have done for school and not been wasting my time) I have come to the conclusion, that even if by some stroke of pure luck that all of these different Peter's are the exact same one (which I think at least two of them are) I have started to wonder if perhaps there is something about the name Peter that makes a kid be a smart ass. And not in a good way. Regardless....even though I do not plan to parent offspring, should that ever change, I sure as heck won't be naming them Peter.
