    I hate when professors assign busy work...

    Like c'mon, at least respect us enough to give us assignments that will actually teach us something.

    Half a page of useless word vomit down, another 1.5 pages to go...

    Use a thesaurus to find big words to replace short ones making your paper longer! Almost males homework fun, too.

    UGH SO MANY FEELS.

    Had a douche professor who only taught higher level German classes. Had to put up with his shit busy work for two years at my university, on top of his 12-20 page exams.

    I'm sure my experience was an extreme case. He's a super douche with little life experience outside of just teaching at universities.

    I've clearly put way too much effort into something that's worth like 5% of my grade.

    Well I'm a teacher and sometimes busy work gives us a break. College is different though; it's less of a strenuous load on the teacher, so they shouldn't be so slack.
