Just talk to me on aim. anon2122

I constructed my thesis but I need to know what's wrong with it so I could fix it.

>> No.414594

Just post your thesis here. Collectively, we're able to be more helpful than any one of us via aim.

>> No.414597

>>414564
Will I have to show you my thesis first? Can you put a shoe on your head so I can be sure it's not a thesis cam?

>> No.414603

wow, why dont you just go to some doctor, get some prescription-shit, a number of a therapist and...
well, fuck that, take all the shit you got thats of any value, go to a pawn-shop, get a gun and a bullet, end this shit right there

>> No.414604

I can't post my writing here because I submit it to a plagerism detection thing.
the plagiarism thing will catch it and the teacher will think I am copying shit from he.

>>414604

TurnItIn? I don't think TurnItIn checks 4chan.

But whatever, here's what you do. Go into Word(or whatev) type out your thesis, PrntScrn, paste it into paint, cut out the bit with the thesis, and post it as an image. There's no way any detection system would know.

>> No.414644

pretty sure turnitin checks 4chan.

>> No.414656

>>414644

Haha, seriously? There doesn't seem to be much sense in checking a site that completely purges itself every 24 hours or so. That'd be hilarious if someone actually plagiarized something off 4chan, though.

>> No.414670

there's some good content here, every now and then.

'Tis the price of 4chan help.

I'm not IMing the guy, I don't know about you.

I dont even have AIM... I feel actually sorry for that guy, because he seems desperate and not very bright. I saw guys like that dropping out left and right when I was in university.

>> No.414734

>>414710
I am bright. I have msn if you want to help.

I just feel bad today.

>> No.414741

What's your thesis?

That is the story involving the cafe, with the old deaf man i sitting outside and the two waiters inside talking between themselves, correct?

>> No.414749

I hate this short-stort.

I feel the OP's pain

Turnitin sucks dick. I had a teacher who was testing it out - copied a whole article from CNN and submitted it and got a low plagiarism score.

My friend submitted his own paper twice, to two different classes, and the second one gave him like an 80% plagiarized score report (It thought he plagiarized his own paper, but in that case it should have been 100%).

>> No.414782

>>414777

Not true. I had a professor who was showing us how to use Turn It In, and she accidentally submitted the same thing she submitted to her earlier class, and it came back ~90%. There are some words and phrases that will never come back as plagiarized.

>> No.414785

>>414782
Well, the CNN story was true. He did it with a projector in front of the class.

Oh yeah, "A Clean well lighted place" was about nihilism iirc
