Eric's Lesson in Sarcasm
This is an actual essay that he had to write to win some serious award.  Daria would be proud.  Kudos, Eric.
Education will be important to me in the future because it helps me know things.  The more I learn through education, the smarter I become.  Education will help me become a better person.  Education can also serve as a stepping stone for more learning.  You can't get a Ph.D. without a bachelor's degree, or a master's degree.  To become a smarter person, you must learn, and the best way to do that is through education.

Education is really great, in fact, I love education.  Education will help me get a job later in life, so education is really good.  Education will make me more in tune to issues of importance, like global warming, or pollution.  Education is also important because it helps people to understand each other, for instance, an educated person will understand how to speak other languages, so he or she may be able to speak Swahili to a person who doesn't speak English on a Safari to Africa, or he or she may be able to communicate with Eskimos.  Education is very important because Eskimos are important, and I like Eskimos.  Education is also important because you can spell words like "Eskimo".  You can also understand geography, like finding Alaska, where Eskimos live. 

Education also prevents you from fixating on things, like Eskimos.  Education is important because it makes me more aware of my surroundings, and the more I am aware about issues of importance, the more I can act, and when I act good things happen.  And that is good because education is good.  Isn't education good? I know education must be good because I have to write an essay on it. 

Education is what made this country great.  All our founding fathers were educated.  I can't write a sentence without saying "educated".  I have no idea why, educated.  It's a real problem, educated.  But anyway, Education improves the mind and enlightens the soul.  It makes you happy.  It also whitens teeth and trims problem areas.  It mows the lawn and raises the kids. It proves Fermat's last theorem, and turns toxic waste into diamonds.  It never needs maintenance, and even upgrades it self.  It can translate all languages, solve the mid-east peace crisis, and improve your sex life.  All for the low, low price of $9.95.  But wait! There's more.  Buy now and we'll throw in this set of Ginsu Steak knives! No CODs.  (Absolutely nothing guaranteed, except that it won't work.)
