So was grading with friends this afternoon and came across an awesome answer. The kid clearly didn't know the answer, so went for the laugh and I appreciate it. The question was asking about the difference in volatility of two compounds. The students answer?

"One is more afraid of dinosaurs"

:D

I love it! Not in a you-get-points kind of way, but in an at-least-you-owned-the-fail kind of way.

Lol!

I've been hearing a lot of seriously amazing stories about things kids write in papers, now that I know a bunch of people TAing for archaeo, anthro, and classics.

I'm pretty sure my favorite story involved someone writing a classics paper in which Dionysus was compared as a parallel to Justin Bieber--e.g. he's an effeminate young male who can induce the maenads into orgiastic frenzy...aka, "Bieber Fever".
