So for my psych class I have to break a social norm

I know this is done in many classes because ive already spent 4 or so hours researching. So Ive gotten a lot of suggestions but nothing I think that is good enough.

I'm a pretty outgoing person, so there are lots of options

Although nothing that can get myself arrested! lol

so lets go over my current ideas that i might do and i planned on doing more than one and going with the best ones:

a. walking backwards around the market
b. carrying an easter basket to shop with
c. handing items one at a time to cashier
d. talking to random people like i know them
e. no do the assignment and potentially fail
f. ucking something better pls!

votes?
remember we're going for the best, and easiest thing i could write about here. and its one a two pager but it can'tbe like "people just were like, wtfnigz? so i left"

Do the assignment. but don't hand it in.

If you fail, explain it all and then hand in the finished assignment.

If you nail it, then come back and give us all something to say thank you for the idea.

Stand in one spot and look directly up for awhile.

use a camera, and pretend/film things that are absolutely mundane and regular, but as if it were an alien invasion to you.

In less busy childrens playgrounds (so that your size doesn't cause injury to smaller children by accident), use the equipment (this is legal so long as there isn't a sign indicating an age limit).

wear a backpack on your front/chest.

Dress smart, neaten up and act in 'crude' ways. inc. rap music through speakers in public areas, walking 'loose', parkour (or your limit of such)....

Actually anything you do, do it dressed very smart and neat (including slick hair etc).

unfortunately, my teacher even gave us a rubric. I have a C average in the class due to an emergency I had and I cant afford to get a failing grade for this.

I cannot argue with your logic.

However.

We have to turn it into a computerized thing that tells the teacher how much we plagerized. So I wouldn't be able to turn it in before because he'd know I actually did the report. But if he didn't take my "haha no report for joo!" thing and shit he might take the letter grade off for not handing it in online! lol
