Well, Crap
Don't you hate it when you have to write a 7-page paper and you barely eke it out to 7 pages, only to realize you forgot your first page is a title page with no content?
Of course you do.
Then you have to decide if you want to throw in a paragraph expanding on a barely-related topic or just turn in a short paper.
So I'm off to expand now...
P.S. I never thought I'd know so much about the intricacies of Indian gaming laws. I never wanted to, either, but that's neither here nor there.

Whereas a pithy, concise peice really stands out; especially among the kind of shit that passes for coursework these days. It's a shame no one's ever invented a laserjet printer paper that's also double-quilted and soft on the bum. Then professors could actually use it for something.
