What is that smell?

Back when I was in high school & college when teachers gave assignments to the class about a subject the student was expected to know the subject and have the paper turned in on time. I remember some of the tricks and schemes that students would pull if they didn’t do their homework like telling the teacher the next day it was due “My computer broke or got a virus, I couldn’t type or print it out!, Ill bring it next week!” or “I had it but I spilled coffee all over the paper, Ill turn it in tomorrow!” etc etc etc.
Then of course, those people would go home frantically and get STARTED on the paper that they would NEED to turn in the next day. Of course, if you were the teacher you would know the kind of quality of paper that you would get. If the subject was about (for example) the history of apples, instead of getting a paper talking about the process of growing apples, the social and religious aspects, the regional areas they grow, the impact of what life would be without them and other important historical information about apples you get a paper along the lines of “apples are red, they are really yummy and juicy! They are great to juggle with and they sure make for great apple pie!” type of quality. The student did not study, did not know the facts and simply did-not-do-their-homework.
I was always taught to do my homework in any and all things, from the smallest to the biggest things in class and life. I know what those people who turn in bad quality homework papers, and give rotten answers to questions and stay away from being held responsible for their failed actions and avoiding getting caught — they are called bullshitters.
