At Duke University, there were four sophomores taking Organic Chemistry. They did so well on all the quizzes, midterms and labs, etc., that each had an "A" so far for the semester. These four friends were so confident that the weekend before finals, they decided to go up to the University of Virginia and party with some friends there. They had a great time - however, after all the hardy-partying, they slept all day Sunday and didn't make it back to Duke until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they decided to find their professor after the final and explain to him why they missed it.
They explained that they had gone to UVA for the weekend with the plan to come back in time to study, but, unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back, didn't have a spare, and couldn't get help for a long time. As a result, they missed the final.
The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day. The guys were elated and relieved. They studied that night and went in the next day at the time the professor had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet, and told them to begin.
They looked at the first problem, worth five points. It was something simple about free radical formation.
"Cool," they thought at the same time, each one in his separate room, "this is going to be easy." Each finished the problem and then turned the page.
On the second page was written:
(For 95 points): Which tire?


I saw this on facebook and laughed. Sucks

Hahaha that's excellent. My organic chem final had something about conjugated pi systems and circling a molecule and explaining why it's the most stable. It said circle the most stable molecule (0 points) and explain why (25 points). The next question, of the same type, had the part about 0 points but not the part about 25. One kid decides to ask if that question is worth zero points, thinking it would be hilarious. Nobody really laughed and he looked like a n00b.

Plus the kid next to me was talking to himself the entire time.

there is a large thunderstorm over a golf course, so all of the golfer return to the club house to wait for it to pass. right when the storm is at its worse, they see a man running out on the fairway holding his 1 iron up in the air over his head. the other men in the club house look on in shock anticipating the mans seemingly inevitable demise by lightning strike. what a fool he must be to be out on the course at all, not to mention with a metal rod in his hand, they thought. a large bolt strikes a tree to the man's right, causing it to explode and fall over, however the man is still unfazed. another bolt hits a rock not twenty feet to his left creating a deafening boom. bolts of electricity hail down upon the course with extraordinary violence, but not one touches the man wielding his 1 iron over his head. after the storm passes, the men from the club house rush to the man on the fairway to see if he is unharmed. the man lowers his club, looks at the others, and says "see? even God cant hit a 1 iron!"
