As an exercise to amuse myself while writing a term paper, I crafted a
single page that was a single paragraph that was a single sentence
that contained 27 commas. And it was totally grammatically correct.
The entire premise of my paper was a total farce and I knew it. My
instructor stopped me in the hall before he handed it back in class to
tell me he completely disagreed with my thesis but I almost convinced
him. He awarded me 1 point shy of a perfect score because he "always
leaves room for improvement". I ran into him about 5-6 years later
totally out of context of the school and he remembered me and the
paper and recalled it as one of the three top undergrad papers he had
ever seen in 20+ years of teaching. I never had the heart to tell him
I didn't read one of the books in the report. I only pulled quotes
from it to support my thesis.
