50 Fun Things to do at Finals
       (Only recommended for finals you KNOW you'll flunk)

    1.Bring a pillow. Fall asleep (or pretend to) until the last
      15 minutes. Wake up, say "oh geez, better get cracking" and
      do some gibberish work. Turn it in a few minutes early.

    2.Get a copy of the exam, run out screaming "Andre, Andre,
      I've got the secret documents!!"

    3.If it is a math/science exam, answer in essay form. If it
      is long answer/essay form, answer with numbers and
      symbols. Be creative. Use the integral symbol.

    4.Make paper airplanes out of the exam. Aim them at the
      instructor's left nostril.

    5.Talk the entire way through the exam. Read questions aloud,
      debate your answers with yourself out loud. If asked to
      stop, yell out, "I'm SOOO sure you can hear me thinking."
      Then start talking about what a jerk the instructor is.

    6.Bring cheerleaders.

    7.Walk in, get the exam, sit down. About five minutes into it,
      loudly say to the instructor, "I don't understand ANY of
      this. I've been to every lecture all semester long! What's
      the deal? And who the hell are you? Where's the regular
      guy?"

    8.Bring a Game Boy (or Game Gear, etc...). Play with the
      volume at max level.

    9.On the answer sheet (book, whatever) find a new, interesting
      way to refuse to answer every question. For example: I
      refuse to answer this question on the grounds that it
      conflicts with my religious beliefs. Be creative.

   10.Bring pets.

   11.Run into the exam room looking about frantically. Breathe
      a sigh of relief. Go to the instructor, say "They've found
      me, I have to leave the country" and run off.

   12.Fifteen minutes into the exam, stand up, rip up all the
      papers into very small pieces, throw them into the air and
      yell out "Merry Christmas." If you're really daring, ask
      for another copy of the exam. Say you lost the first one.
      Repeat this process every fifteen minutes.

   13.Do the exam with crayons, paint, or fluorescent markers.

   14.Come into the exam wearing a pair of birkenstocks, and
      nothing else.

   15.Come down with a BAD case of Tourette's Syndrome during
      the exam. Be as vulgar as possible.

   16.Do the entire exam in another language. If you don't know
      one, make one up! For math/science exams, try using
      Roman numerals.

   17.Bring things to throw at the instructor when s/he's not
      looking. Blame it on the person nearest to you.

   18.As soon as the instructor hands you the exam, eat it.
 

   19.Walk into the exam with an entourage. Claim you are going
      to be taping your next video during the exam. Try to get
      the instructor to let them stay, be persuasive. Tell the
      instructor to expect a percentage of the profits if they
      are allowed to stay.

   20.Every five minutes, stand up, collect all your things,
      move to another seat, continue with the exam.

   21.Turn in the exam approximately 30 minutes into it. As you
      walk out, start commenting on how easy it was.

   22.Do the entire exam as if it was multiple choice and
      true/false. If it is a multiple choice exam, spell out
      interesting things (DCCAB, BABE, etc..).

   23.Bring a black marker. Return the exam with all questions
      and answers completely blacked out.

   24.Get the exam. Twenty minutes into it, throw your papers
      down violently, scream out "Fuck this!" and walk out
      triumphantly.

   25.Arrange a protest before the exam starts (i.e. Threaten
      the instructor that whether or not everyone's done, they
      are all leaving after one hour to go drink).

   26.Show up completely drunk. (Completely drunk means at some
      point during the exam, you should start crying for mommy).

   27.Every now and then, clap twice rapidly. If the instructor
      asks why, tell him/her in a very derogatory tone, "the light
      bulb that goes on above my head when I get an idea is
      hooked up to a clapper. DUH!"

   28.Comment on how sexy the instructor is looking that day.

   29.Come to the exam wearing a black cloak. After about 30
      minutes, put on a white mask and start yelling "I'm here,
      the phantom of the opera" until they drag you away.
 

   30.Go to an exam for a class you have no clue about, where you
      know the class is very small, and the instructor would
      recognize you if you belonged. Claim that you have been
      to every lecture. Fight for your right to take the exam.

   31.Upon receiving the exam, look it over, while laughing
      loudly, say "you don't really expect me to waste my time on
      this drivel? Days of our Lives is on!!!"

   32.Bring a water pistol with you. Nuff said.

   33.From the moment the exam begins, hum the theme to Jeopardy.
      Ignore the instructor's requests for you to stop. When they
      finally get you to leave one way or another, begin whistling
      the theme to the Bridge on the River Kwai.

   34.Start a brawl in the middle of the exam.

   35.If the exam is math/science related, make up the longest
      proofs you could possibly think of. Get pi and imaginary
      numbers into most equations.

   36.Come in wearing a full knight's outfit, complete with sword
      and shield.

   37.Bring a friend to give you a back massage the entire way
      through the exam. Insist this person is needed, because you
      have bad circulation.

   38.Bring cheat sheets FROM ANOTHER CLASS (make sure this is
      obvious... like history notes for a calculus exam...
      otherwise you're not just failing, you're getting kicked out,
      too) and staple them to the exam with the comment
      "Please use the attached notes for references as you see fit."

   39.When you walk in, complain about the heat. Strip.

   40.After you get the exam, call the instructor over, point
      to any question, ask for the answer. Try to work it out of
      him/her.

   42.Bring balloons, blow them up, start throwing them around
      like they do before concerts start.

   43.Try to get people in the room to do the wave.

   44.Play frisbee with a friend at the other side of the room.

   45.Bring some large, cumbersome, ugly idol. Put it right next

   46.Get deliveries of candy, flowers, balloons, telegrams, etc...
      sent to you every few minutes throughout the exam.

   47.During the exam, take apart everything around you. Desks,
      chairs, anything you can reach.

   48.Complete the exam with everything you write being
      backwards at a 90 degree angle.

   49.Bring a musical instrument with you, play various tunes.
      If you are asked to stop, say "it helps me think." Bring a
      copy of the Student Handbook with you, challenging the
      instructor to find the section on musical instruments during
      finals. Don't forget to use the phrase "Told you so".

   50.Answer the exam with the
      "Top Ten Reasons Why  Professor xxxx Sucks".
